The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has warned against the continued detention of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, stressing that such an action would sink Nigeria.
IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful, issued the warning in response to a call by the Coalition of Northern Group, CNG, urging President Bola Tinubu not to release Kanu.
Powerful described the Northern coalition as clueless for urging Tinubu not to release Kanu.
In a statement he signed, Powerful reminded the coalition that an Appeal Court sitting in Abuja had discharged and acquitted Kanu, hence Tinubu should order his release.
He urged Tinubu to act on the advice of Nigerians asking him to release the IPOB leader in the interest of Nigeria.
He charged the group to steer clear of Kanu’s illegal and unconstitutional detention “or we will shred what is left of their relevance.”
According to Powerful: “The herdsmen Coalition of Northern Group (CNG) that are advising the Nigerian President to allow the law to run its course are so clueless that they didn’t realize that the Appeal Court of Nigeria in Abuja has already discharged and acquitted Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“The Nigeria government is in violation of both local and international laws.
“IPOB, as a lawful and peaceful movement, will legally sink Nigeria locally and internationally if they refuse to be a democratic country and release our leader, and call for a United Nation’s supervised referendum.
“The earlier this government takes the advice from reasonable people around the world and release Kanu unconditionally and pay him the compensation as the Abuja Court of Appeal and Umuahia High Court ruled, the better for everyone. The continuous illegal detention of Mazi Nnamdi KANU as the Coalition of Northern Bandits desires will sink Nigeria and all its beneficiaries.”
IPOB PRESS RELEASE, 19/07)2023. COALITION OF NORTHERN GROUP (CNG) ADVICE NOT TO RELEASE MNK IS A SHOW OF IGNORANCE- IPOB.
The attention of the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by the great prophet and liberator Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU has been drawn to the laughable and disgraceful statement from the clueless Coalition of Northern Group (CNG) led by herdsman Abdulaziz Suileman advising President Bola Tinubu to ignore the wise calls from Eastern leaders for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in agreement with the Court judgements. The herdsmen Coalition of Northern Group (CNG) that are advising the Nigerian President to allow the law to run its course are so clueless that they didn’t realize that the Appeal Court of Nigeria in Abuja has already discharged and acquitted Mazi Nnamdi KANU. The group of herdsmen who were made relevant by the janjaweed imposter government still want to remain relevant in this government. They seem to forget that their brotherhood of terrorists and lawless regime is no longer in power or relevant in the present day Nigeria. We would have ignored the group of herdsmen, but it’s important to educate them if only they will understand. Their terrorist and imposter President said that the court would decide the fate of Mazi Nnamdi KANU. When the same Courts discharged and acquitted MNK, the same janjaweed imposter president refused to obey their own court judgment by refusing to release Mazi Nnamdi KANU. On which legal grounds is this herdsmen’s group called CNG advising President Bola Tinubu to keep detaining Mazi Nnamdi KANU? The Nigeria government is in violation of both local and international laws. What the Coalition of Northern bandits can do is to stay clear of the illegal and unconstitutional detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, or we will shred what is left of their relevance. IPOB, as a lawful and peaceful movement, will legally sink Nigeria locally and internationally if they refuse to be a democratic country and release our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU and call for a United Nation’s supervised referendum. The earlier this government takes the advice from reasonable people around the world and release Mazi Nnamdi KANU unconditionally and pay him the compensation as the Abuja Court of Appeal and Umuahia High Court ruled, the better for everyone. The continuous illegal detention of Mazi Nnamdi KANU as the Coalition of Northern Bandits desires will sink Nigeria and all its beneficiaries.
