Biafra: Why I Asked For Guns From Us-based Nigerians – Nnamdi Kanu [VIDEO] by dobokiy: 6:47am On Jun 28, 2017


Embattled Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has said that the reason he demanded bullets and guns from a group of US-based Nigerians in the past was not to hurt anyone but for self-defense against the incessant attacks on Igbos by the Fulani herdsmen.

According to him, self-defense was recognized by all known laws at the United Nations (UN).

He stated this during an interview with Adrian Kriesch of German TV station – Deustche Welle.

Kanu said: “I am sure you have heard of the Fulani herdsmen killing people all over the place. How do you intend to defend yourself against Fulani herdsmen without guns and bullets?

“They have been killing our people, raping our women, destroying crops in the farms and no one does anything about it. Is that how human beings are supposed to live?

“Self-defense is recognized even by all the known laws at the UN.

“We are fighting for independence, not fighting physically with guns and bullets. We are fighting in terms of our agitations; we are fighting in terms of our belief; we are fighting in terms of our consistency to ensure that we free, because we are not free.

“As a free people, we can afford to make life better for our people. Right now, we cannot do that because of how Nigeria is structured and because of the flawed foundation Nigeria rests.”

On the referendum, he said: “if the government does not agree to that, there will be no elections in Biafra land. No more elections here.

“They can put whoever they like in office. They can do whatever they like with their political positions. We will not engage in any political process.”

On his detention, he said: “I was not treated fairly because in Nigeria, people behave like animals; they are not disciplined enough; they are not mentally developed enough to run a transparent civil society.

“They have a fiddle mindset where you have the ruling class and a multitude of poverty-stricken people who never utters any word in rebeliion or to even ask questions about their plight.

“That is one thing we are determined to challenge.”
He concluded by saying: “what we are asking the world to recognize is that we want to live in peace and not in pieces. Allow Biafra to exist. We were existing before the British came. Just allow us to go back to what we were before.

“No African came to Europe to create countries. So, for somebody to just come in here and say ‘you, you, you, and you from today your name is Nigeria’ is simply laughable.”

When Kanu was 'ranting' on radio Biafra,you called it a foolish idea.

He started insulting everyone including Igbos . you called him a fool and an illiterate and a fraudster.

He used that to get your attention and 'intelligent' you still called him an idiot.

He started visiting counties in preparation for his visit to Nigeria .you said he doesn't know anything.he is not intelligent.

He announced that he would visit Nigeria and be kidnapped. You reminded him of how other freedom fighters were murdered and nothing happened.you called him mumu who lacks strategy and wisdom.

He came back and was arrested .you celebrated it and said he will die in prison.you Chanted "I said so".

While in prison he roared like a lion he is,called the president a mad man and boasted that he can't be jailed.you said it is a wrong strategy. That he should have shut up like Mandela did whereas your intelligence did not let you know that Mandela was dealing with human beings whereas KANU was dealing with animals.

When he left the prison ,you got angry and frustrated. You even advised him to lie low.unfortunately, he didn't listen to your advice like he has always ignored others from you.

When he started welcoming visitors ,you became more frustrated and started analysing how he has gone against his bail conditions and even called on govt to lock him up again.lol
You own is only to analyze. no action and no nothing. Spending energy and time on a man who is busy living his dream and has been succeeding.

When he asked the Igbo's to stay at home ,you laughed at him and said no e will listen to a fraudster.

When the sit at home was successful ,you became frustrated and started attacking the Igbos. Lol.

Now that he has asked for a date for referendum or there won't be any election ,you are all over the place calling it another wrong move. You that is full of wisdom have never said anything about the referendum part but has dwelt on the election part.

All I am saying to you is ; CONTINUE.
who your wisdom don help?

We shall overcome.
