Biafra Arrival Almost Here: Nnamdi Kanu Talks Tough From Prison As Ezeife Again Blasts Buhari For His Hatred On The Igbos

Nnamdi Kanu the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has spoken from prison, The Radio Biafra director said the quest for Biafra is not his decision but God’s own calling.

He says the movement to actualize Biafra is a flame that cannot be put out.

The Embattled Radio Biafra leader, Nnamdi Kanu who spoke from his prison custody on Monday, July 25, claiming that it was not his choice to stir the agitation for Biafra, but a call made by God.

The detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) insisted that his decision to restore the nation of Biafra was not his personal choice but a mandate from the Most High God (Chiukwu-okike-abiama) which was assigned to him from time immemorial.

Kanu maintained that the restoration of the nation of Biafra is a priority and a project that must be achieved under the watchful eyes of the IPOB led by him, an arduous task that must be accomplished in order to lead his people out of the contraption called Nigeria, without fear of death.

The Media and Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful who disclosed this yesterday in a press statement, quoted Kanu as telling some sympathizers who visited him in prison custody that he had even dedicated his life to restore Biafra, just as our Lord Jesus Christ dedicated His own life for the salvation of mankind.

According to Kanu: “the reason my mother gave birth to me was to restore and save Biafrans. I also promise that the Biafran race will be a cleaned up nation and all the people of Biafra will come back home, if they are living outside the country of the new nation.

Our people will no longer wander on the road again”. He queried: “How can I encourage the people of Biafra to work towards the upbringing of Nigeria, when we don’t hear the same language, don’t eat the same food and don’t have the same culture.

In fact, if we come to their land to practice our culture and religion, we will be beheaded. Their women wear hijab, and Biafran women don’t, and on the point that our women don’t wear hijab and we don’t practice the same religion, they will see us as infidels and then, we will be beheaded.

We are 100 per cent Christian. These people are Muslims who see killing as a culture. “In Biafra where we originated from,, it will be hard for our people to kill a human being, because in my language a human being is called MMANDU, which means in English language the beauty of life.

Now, you can see it will never work, the only solution is Biafra.” The Vanguard reports that Mazi Kanu further stated that “there is no regret in his dictionary,” adding that “he is ready to spend a thousand years in a prison”. “And also we are not trying to secede from Nigeria. We are older than Nigeria. You can only talk about seceding if Biafrans are the ones that colonized Nigeria. But we are older than that contraption.

So we can’t secede rather we just want to go back the way we were before the British came. It is Biafra or nothing, Nigerians knows that.

 

”Meanwhile, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife has claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari hates Igbos and that he knew about this hatred a long time ago.

The president has been criticised for what many described as lopsided appointment that has largely favoured the north.

In an interview with Vanguard, the former governor of Anambra revealed what was discussed at the Igbo peace summit in Owerri, Imo state. He said: “We discussed the problem that the South East is facing in today’s Nigeria. The problem of hatred from Mr president.

“At the beginning, not everybody saw it. I saw it early enough and thinking it was a mistake and not a deliberate action, I started shouting.

We have not been taken here, we have not been taken there, you have appointed 10 persons nobody from Southeast; you have appointed 20 people nobody is from Southeast, you have appointed 25, 30, 40 going further we have nobody, no soul from the Southeast.

“So, I started knowing that it is beyond a mistake. I was thinking it was a mistake and since I believe that the person who is President must have conscience, I was raising his consciousness to the mistake so that he can correct it even the ones I tell you to write, you will find that everything I was saying is true.

Instead of being taken seriously for amendment to be made, I was called enemy of the North and enemy of Buhari.
So, these days, I am not talking too much again, I am talking about Nigeria.” In the same vein, the Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC), has demanded the immediate release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, saying it was long overdue.

Daily Post reports that President of the OYC, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, who made the demand for his release, in a statement he issued in Enugu on Monday, said such step would help in calming frayed nerves across the South-East and the South-South region.

He declared that “the continuous detention of Nnamdi Kanu is in no small measure contributing to the volatile security situation in the Southern Nigeria.

“On so many occasions, several agitating groups have given his detention as one of the many reasons behind their activities.

“In the light of the above, we urge the President Muhammadu Buhari administration to give peace a chance by enabling atmosphere of dialogue. “Both the international conventions and the Nigerian Constitution allow for self determination.

However, we insist that such much be done with due regard to the laws of the land.” “We, therefore, urge the present government to unconditionally free Kanu from detention.
“The government should take our assurances that we shall make efforts that no one take up arms against the government‎.

We say this because the IPOB, to which Kanu is a member, has remained non-violent and peaceful,” Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro warned.

Nnamdi Kanu can never 

sacrifice Biafra for his 

freedom 

- Family backs IPOB Director

The family of the detained IPOB director, Nnamdi Kanu on Saturday stated in clear terms that the incarcerated Director will never renounce Biafra for any reason whatsoever.

According to a report by Saturday Sun, the family represented by the younger brother of the incarcerated Director of Radio Biafra, Prince Emmanuel Kanu, in a furious tone said it was embarrassing that the family was not consulted before the purported meeting MEND said it had with representatives of the Federal Government where the said concession was said to have been secured for the conditional release of his elder brother should he renounce Biafra.

“MEND is under IPOB and therefore, lacks the capacity to speak on its behalf,  We have not and will never put up Biafra for sale.” he said.

Prince Kanu was emphatic that Nnamdi, his brother would never trade Biafra for his freedom, reminding the MEND leadership that Biafra was bigger than the militant group or any other group or body in the country.

According to him, “The North has its identity, Arewa, the West has Oduduwa as its identity and since the identity of the South East is Biafra, it will be wicked for anybody to ask Nnamdi to renounce Biafra for his freedom. What will freedom to him and to all of us without Biafra?

“If Mr. President will renounce Arewa and his Vice, Oduduwa, then Nnamdi and indeed all of us will renounce Biafra, it is as simple as that”.

He said if it was for that reason they arrested his elder brother in the first place, they made a serious mistake as they will live and die for Biafra.

IPOB through its Head of Media and Publicity of IPOB, Mr. Emma Powerful  noted that they were not aware of any negotiation with the Federal Government or any other group on their behalf, describing the alleged condition as an insult and laughable.

“Can Buhari renounce that he is Fulani? If Buhari cannot renounce his Fulani Islamic heritage, then IPOB will not countenance such thought.

“It would be very foolish of anyone to sit in front of Nnamdi Kanu to make such a proposal because he will bite off the person’s ear. Nobody of sane mind will dare propose such nonsense to him”, Powerful warned.

“We are more determined in the quest for the restoration of God’s own nation, Biafra people are saying that this question is insulting but nevertheless, nobody can set agenda for us”, he added.

“On the other hand, IPOB and their leader Kanu are in full support of any group of dedicated and hardcore freedom fighters such as the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA). We have stated unequivocally and without any fear of contradiction that we are fully in support of the NDA as they embark on freeing themselves from the British criminality called Nigeria.

“Therefore, anybody thinking that our leader will renounce Biafra is certifiably mad. For both IPOB and their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, it is either we get Biafra or we die getting Biafra. There is no middle ground” Iroanya and Nmezu insisted.
