Kanu’s trial on the 26th of July exposed a few things that positively shocked me and should make every Igbo proud.

(1) There was lock-down of markets and businesses in Igboland and in places outside Igboland with considerable Igbo presence. I was shocked when someone in Lagos told me that they were not going to the market in solidarity with Kanu. When I put a call to the East, the same thing was happening, only more seriously. Even an APC chieftain told me that they were all staying at home in solidarity. The unity exhibited by Igbo in support of Kanu, in this trial, really shocked me!

(2) I was shocked by the number and caliber of Igbo lawyers that went to the court. Most them were BOLD AND FEARLESS and they came from different Igbo groups. The sheer number and caliber of lawyers that I saw in that court premises dwarfs the number of lawyers that are usually available -for one court case - in many independent countries of the world, certainly more than you would find in a typical African country. This showed that Igbo nation, AS IS, is a formidable one.

(3) There was almost a unanimous rally of Igbo political emotion and solidarity with Kanu. On that day, the Igbo seemed to realize, and express the feeling, that Kanu’s trial is the trial of the Igbo nation. There was no significant Igbo voice of dissension or discord on Kanu. There was a unanimous feeling of solidarity with Kanu, and this shocked me! I suspect that this feeling will grow stronger now that Kanu wasn’t even presented in court on that date.

(4) I must mention that non-Igbo showed up in solidarity as well, the most prominent of which was Omoyele Sowore. Another example was a man from Akwa Ibom (he was interviewed) and his total solidarity and boldness made me feel that non-Igbo Biafrans, though not as vociferous as Igbo , are perhaps as stoic in their solidarity, and it would be a mistake to assume that only Igbo support Nnamdi Kanu.

Overall, the Igbo nation showed that when things get serious, they can unite as one, and this can be summarized in what Barrister Goddy Uwazurike (the lawyer that represented Ohanaeze Ndigbo) said when interviewed. He said (paraphrasing ) that when you see a mad man going about his business, it would be a mistake to maltreat him, because it is when something bad happens to the mad man that his relations will come out to hold you to account (by implication).

We are talking about the 26th of July. On that day there were no police or army anywhere in sight in Onitsha, and other places.
Some were saying that the fear of UGM may have caused it.

Nnamdi Kanu deserves all d support and endorsement from all and sundry including outside core Igbo States. As at now it's only Joe Igbokwe that I have on record that openly disparaged Nnamdi Kanu but his case is understandable. Every other known political elite in d East has directly or by extrapolation made it clear that they are not in any way against Nnamdi Kanu. @ op maybe u forgot the massive rallies going on around d world. Seeing those beautiful Reverend Sisters with d beautiful Biafran coloured nosemasks in d Rome protests gave me goose pimples and resonates my conviction that aka Chineke di na ya

Igbo is the envy of many. Chech anywhere Igbo is in the minority and you can single them out by success or achievement. In my office, we are just two igbos out of 38 employees but the both of us got promoted to senior level and now out of the entire 38 only 3 are at senior level, two being Igbo.

The Israelites were enslaved for over 400 years in Egypt but eventually they became free and more powerful than all the Arab nations join together. Igbos are 60 years in this God forsaken contraption called Nigeria but one day, we will be free
