Press Statement

ON THE BAIL CONDITIONS FOR NNAMDI KALU THE LEADER OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF BIAFRA

We recall the media reports on the grant of bail to Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra by Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court. It is trite law that the power to grant bail involves the exercise of judicial discretion and the criteria for the exercise has been streamlined by the decisions of Supreme Court of Nigeria in a plethora of cases [Suleiman & Anor v C.O.P. Plateau State (2008) 2-3 S.C.; Bamaiyi v The State (2001) 4 S.C. (Pt) 1 18; Dokubo Asari v Federal Republic of Nigeria (2007) 5-6 S.C 150]. While we admit that the exercise of discretion and the conditions attached to bail may vary from case to case, it must be situated within the context of constitutionalism, legality, the facts of the case and follow judicial precedent.

WHERE is Buhari??? Confused and worried Nigerians demand as Buhari 'DISAPPEARS' from the scene

Coming on the heels of the apparent disappearance of the 'General' Muhammadu Buhari from the scene for the past two weeks, Nigerians have become extremely worried on his whereabouts.

Deconstructing the defective bail conditions given to Nnamdi Kanu by Justice Binta Murtala -Nyako - IPOB

The bail conditions handed out to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, by Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako is not only defective but also smirks of judicial recklessness, rascality, and reeks of tribal and religious bigotry. At best, the bail conditions are booby traps to perpetually gag, ensnare, and render lameduck, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu whose only crime is the peaceful demand for the enforcement of the rights of Indigenous People of Biafra to self-determination as enshrined in the 2007 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP). We posit that Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako has brought the Nigerian Judicial System to the lowest ebb by virtue of these bail conditions.

Kanu’s stringent bail conditions: Consequences of Quota System in the appointment of Judges in Nigeria

(Intersociety, Onitsha Nigeria: 25th April 2017)-It is incurably defective and socially disastrous when a post SSCE student who scores 100 in the Joint Admission & Matriculation Board exams is admitted into the university to study a law course, for instance, with another student who scores 250 in the same exams. The former with lower mark and lower quotient is allowed admission because he or she comes from northern part of the country and benefits from the so called quota system allocations and considerations; while the latter is admitted under stringent conditions and marks requirements because he or she comes from the knowledgeable southern part of Nigeria. The consequences of the former on all spheres of Nigeria’s social development and conducts including the appointment and promotion of Judges in the country have remained irremediably grave till date.

Biafra restoration is unstoppable: IPOB responds to Tanko Yakassai. He cannot speak from both sides of the mouth

We have taken ample time to dwell on the interview granted by Alhaji Tanko Yakassai and we have most sufficiently subjected the said interview to the forensic analysis of sapient extrapolation. Our aim is not to ridicule but rather to illuminate the darkest recesses of the unattainable ambitions of the core North in relation to Biafra. Let it be said unequivocally that Yakassai's statements are inordinately over-ambitious. The points he raised cancelled out each other, so we see it as being ill-thought out, divergent, and outrightly riotous.

Rejection of Army’s Kangaroo rights abuses investigation panel and request for proper criminal investigation and punitive measures against Buratai & Ors

(Intersociety, Onitsha Nigeria: 9^th March 2017)-The gross rights abuses in the past 21 months of the ailing Buhari’s Government of Nigeria can never be investigated by the same perpetrators of the heinous crimes (i.e. Nigerian Army and its COAS: Tukur Yusuf Buratai, etc). Any so called special investigation panel set up by the Nigerian Army is manifestly a kangaroo and totally rejected. As a matter of fact, the Nigerian Army should be barred from meddling into investigations associated with same; except its right to be heard. There shall be proper criminal investigation and punitive measures against Buratai and Company; followed by an unbiased and balanced Special Judicial Commission of Enquiry set up by the Government of Nigeria, for the purpose of victims’ remedies or compensatory justice and serious administrative reprimands-Emeka Umeagbalasi-Criminologist & Graduate of Security Studies; and Board Chairman of Intersociety.

Biafra and Turkey relationship: Nigerians Blast Buhari for lobbying Turkish President with a perfunctory congratulatory message

The relationship currently being forged by Biafrans with the Turkish government has forced 'General' Muhammadu Buhari to send a hasty congratulatory message to the Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan for his foresight in conducting a referendum where Turkish people were given the chance to make a change in their constitution.

This ill-thought out message runs contrary to Buhari's vehement stance against a referendum for Biafra Republic or even calling for a Sovereign National Conference where Nigerians will be given the opportunity to decide their future.

Republic of Biafra Anthem

Land of rising sun, we love and cherish,
Beloved homeland of our brave heroes;
We must defend our lives or we shall perish,
We shall protect our hearts from all our foes;
But if the price is death for all we hold dear,
Then let us die without a shred of fear.

Hail to Biafra, consecrated nation,
O fatherland, this be our solemn pledge:
Defending thee shall be a dedication,
Spilling our blood we’ll count a privilege;
The waving standard which emboldens the free
Shall always be our flag of liberty.

We shall emerge triumphant from this ordeal,
And through the crucible unscathed we’ll pass;
When we are poised the wounds of battle to heal,
We shall remember those who died in mass;
Then shall our trumpets peal the glorious song
Of victory we scored o’er might and wrong.

Oh God, protect us from the hidden pitfall,
Guide all our movements lest we go astray;
Give us the strength to heed the humanist call:
To give and not to count the cost’ each day;
Bless those who rule to serve with resoluteness,
To make this clime a land of righteousness.
