You guys should go and watch the full interview. Idris really spoke well, these media guys are just uploading the controversial part. It's a 34minutes long interview.

Nigeria is a big joke... We can't even rely on our courts. I regret voting for Buhari.

Who's Cacawa2? This nairalander is a nobody, nobody wants to know what you think.

omenka:
When small boys keep threatening to burn down your country and calling it a zoo which must fall and boasting they'd go to the seat of power and take back home the president's head, you confront them but with guns and tanks but with nuclear weapons and latest F-series fighter jets.

Nigerian forces are too kind.

People have been saying you are unintelligent. I now agree with them totally. I greatly wonder and regret coming from the same region as you.

I once respected this guy. I don't even take you seriously anymore. You have lost all credibility and I don't think your threads are worthy to be on nairaland.

That wasn't Nnamdi Kanu.. It was his brother.

Israeljones:
That person was just busy videoing the entire exterior and interior of the house breathing heavily(sign of fear) shouting 'you can hear the Nigerian army shooting' 'You can hear the the Nigerian army shooting aimlessly' 'Hope the whole world is seeing this' (wtf are yu talking abt,,,, the whole world? who gives a hoot,,, Call that ur brother kanu to order this wont have happend in the 1st place.. .

Senseless beings

Ohhh, Nigerians are real animals. No compassion for their fellow citizens.

laudate:


Which right? Did Kanu ever think of the right of others, when he was preaching hate against other ethnic groups? Did Kanu think of the rights of others, when he kept urging his own IPOB people to kill any awusa or yorroba they find? Did Kanu think of the rights of others living in Nigeria, when he promised to make the country like Somalia? Oga, abeg park well and stop forming political correctness here.

Whether Police arrests him, or army does the job, it doesn't matter. And please don't you dare say Kanu did nothing wrong!! He has been flouting the law since day one, and you are here defending his illegality!! Or you have never listened to Radio Biafra? Or you were in Mars when he ordered that elections would not take place in Anambra? Or you had amnesia when he set up his own secret service and hoisted his own flag over Nigerian territory? Bia, take time oh.

Wait! When you flout bail conditions, who is responsible for revoking bails? The Army?

Lol, you have no respect for the rule of law. Kanu was charged to court for his alleged "Crimes". It's the job of the court to determine whether to imprison or let him go. If our government doesn't have respect for the Judiciary, then it means we live in a country of doom.

laudate:

Oga, what on earth will bring soldiers to my house? Wetin dem wan come find for there? I did not steal, cheat, kill or incite others against the govt. So wetin dem go find come my side? You conveniently ignored Kanu's belligerent and provocative stance, as well as his repeated flouting of the law with impunity, yet you find it easy to call others to support the rule of law in order to favour the same Kanu that has incited others against the state, and its' constituted authority. I do not defend people like Kanu, blindly. Kanu sowed the wind, and it is his turn to reap the whirlwind.

Ohh, So you believe it's against the law for soldiers to come to your house in a show of force when you didn't do anything to warrant it, but you are denying Kanu of his own right to same.

Like I said before, it's the right of the Police to arrest Kanu and then take him to court for whatever charges they have against him.

What the Soldiers are doing isn't different from the point you were trying to make. They went to Kanu's house illegally and they shouldn't have been there in the first place. Soldiers going to hunt for Kanu is like soldiers coming to your house when you did absolutely nothing wrong.

It's the court that decides hate speeches and not the Nigerian army. If you don't get this, then you are irredeemable.

laudate:

Please before you end your notes, advise your brother Kanu to drop his hate and respect the rule of law! The freedom to swing your arms, ends where the next man's nose begins. End of story....

I am not Igbo sir. Every Nigerian should try as much as possible to make sure the military stays off our streets. We give these soldiers reasons to violate our human right, we don't speak up when we need to... Soldiers will likely come to your house and beat you up and you won't get justice because you laugh at others instead of you to speak up. Our soldiers should respect civilians, they have no right to lay hands on the people they are supposed to protect.

laudate:


It can never affect me, because I do not deliberately flout the law. It can never affect me, because I did not join Kanu to call for the extermination of people from other ethnic groups. It is clueless folks like Kanu that act as if they are a law unto themselves, that end up in such a mess. Part of the Army's functions is to support civil authority, and quell counter insurgency in addition to protecting internal and external borders. All that grammar you are talking about how the military should have left Kanu alone, is neither here nor there. Kanu has sown the wind. Now it is his turn to reap the whirlwind in full. If you still feel pained, that is your headache! E no concern me!

I don't want to argue with you sir but you are totally wrong. The Police didn't call for the Army, there was nothing to support. I want to end on this note...

Ajisebioyolaari:
This news is unconfirmed. However, if after the withdrawal of the NA from the streets, the IPOB miscreants still refuse to call themselves to order, they should be ready to face the full consequences of their actions.

Useless criminals comparing themselves with Catalan and Carlifornia......is this how Catalan and Carlifornia have been conducting themselves and causing civil disturbances to achieve their goal?

If IPOB were sensible people, they should have calmed down for Python dance to pass and continue with their struggle in a peaceful, orderly and non-incitive manner. I saw a video of BSS today refering to other Nigerians as "cockroaches" yet you want the UN to take you serious. Rubbish

Any föol can strike off my post and quote me with an afonja tribal mark picture. Thanks in anticipation of your föolishness.

Lol, didn't you read the news? What were soldiers doing at Kanu's house? Were they passing? Why were soldiers shooting and molesting people putting on Biafran clothes?

You think the soldiers were just passing? What about NUJ? Don't allow sentiments to blind your sense of reasoning.

He said he doesn't personally like what Kanu is doing but as far as the law is concerned, the military are in the wrong.

laudate:


Stop forming political correctness! And answer my questions. When Kanu was urging his followers to kill any 'awusa, yorrobar' and was spewing hate on Radio Biafra etc., where were you? Did you advise him to obey the law? When Kanu was threatening to make sure Nigeria would look like child's play beside Somalia, tell me did you ask him to obey the law? When he was setting up his own secret service and parallel govt apparatus, tell me did you ask him to obey the law? Why do you people have selective amnesia when it comes to the misdeeds of your kinsmen?

The law can never come back to hunt me, you know why? I do not deliberately flout the law, and will never embark on a journey of illegality the way Kanu has been doing.

So you think it's the responsibility of the military to curb hate speeches? Why do we have the Police and why do we have courts? I repeat, what the Army is doing is unconstitutional, they are provoking the Igbos into something that could have been avoided.

Kanu already has a case in court. The Military should have left the court to decide Kanu's fate or press fresh charges against him. The military had no constitutional right to have invaded Kanu's home in a show of force.

Yes, it will surely affect you. Always remember that Buhari will not be our president forever. Another president might use the excuse that Buhari did it to cause trouble in your own region and everybody will mock you as well.

laudate:

You are the one that needs to shut his trap! Kanu's hate-filled speeches got him and his people into this mess, and all the fine-fine grammar from one erudite lawyer is NOT going to get him out of it! Let him keep quiet and bear the consequences of his evil actions!

That's why the whites say we are animals. We aren't organised at all, the rule of law is alien to Africans. We are lawless animals. Ohhh, the law says this and that, but we don't care.

See, let me tell you something. The law you are not upholding now will surely come back to hunt you. And nobody will listen to your cry when it goes out of hands. Every reasonable citizen should be against this, the Nigerian constitution is bigger than Buhari. He should take his Pythons to the forest like the Lawyer said..

I am not an Igbo man and no way do I support Kanu. Hate Speeches are left for the court and not the Military. Until you understand the law, you remain an educated illiterate filled with hate.

laudate:

Ok, why didn't Nnamdi Kanu remember that the law is the law when he was spewing out his hate-filled speeches and urging his IPOB followers to kill any awusa, yorrobar etc, they find? When he was engaging in acts of treason he didn't remember that the law is the law? by the way, what are the functions of the army sef? It is not just to fight wars, but to also quell insurgency and maintain the country's internal and external borders. Kanu wants to carve out his own govt within Nigeria. He started by hoisting his own flag and setting up his own secret service. I guess all that is with the law, too?



I am not saying the Army should have invaded Aba or Umuahia, but Kanu brought these attacks upon his people and himself, through his utterances and actions.

Please kindly watch the video. I mean, from part 1-4. You know nothing about law, so just shut up and listen to enlightened people.

The lawyer stated the law, yet you want to challenge it when you know nothing. The court interprets the law and the man made a lot of sense in that regard. Don't let hate take away your sense of reasoning.

I saw this interview earlier today. I must commend this well read lawyer. He knows exactly what he's talking about.

Nonsense!

SARS are criminals. The real SARS operatives are nothing but criminal elements. They plant guns on innocent people just to make money from them. They are fond of following innocent boys to the ATM to withdraw money. These thieves collect as much as 100k-500k.

There's nothing like fake SARS. I can authoritatively tell you that SARS Operatives are more deadly than thieves.

A good SARS is a dead SARS... I seriously think the so called SARS should be scrapped. I don't see what they are doing to protect us.

ElsonMorali:


It's always better to remain silent than reveal your ignorance.

What do you mean by you video by punishment people for what they say?

Anu e o shey mi. Ayam Sorry for you. No go try am o. Otherwise your prison sentence go long well well. Why don't you enter a plane and start discussing in a loud voice about the bomb you intend to set off and let's see If you'll sleep in your house that day. Iranu. Ignorant people running amok online.

Freedom of thought and (Expression). You are the ignorant person here. And yes, I rushed into making that comment. There are situations when what you say might put you into trouble, but that's not the case.

ABIODUNOLAOPA1:

The same way you will not see Americans misbehaving d way some irresponsible citizen behave in Nigeria. In America, d police kill blacks regularly due to irresponsible conduct. American government will not fold their arm and watch IPOB go d extent they've gone were they in America. Stop trying to look like you are civilised and condemn evil. Femi Falana will turn around and blame d president when d idiot plunges d country into crisis.

You are far from the truth, have you heard of Black Lives Matter and Antifa? They aren't peaceful.

RRS guys are okay. All SARS police men should be killed. A good SARS is a dead SARS.

To be honest RRS don't disturb civilians. I have not seen RRS police men causing trouble in the streets.

The military are trying to tell us Python is peaceful. The only time a python would dance is when it's seen its meal for that day. The Nigerian army is trying to swallow Kanu.

profolaolu:
When KANU was busy throwing tantrums and hate speech here and there falana kept quiet, so now when buhari want to test maybe he has power or not people are complaining,I thought d guy on TV was from Sudan

What do you mean by hate speech? You cannot punish people for what they say, the law holds you accountable for your actions and not your thoughts. You have to understand this, you cannot beat me up because I insulted you, It means you have assaulted me.

So it's unreasonable for Buhari (I voted for him) and the military to go to Kanu's house with weapons because of hate speech.

akthedream:

SO he is no afonj today? What is your other moniker?

I don't engage in tribal wars. I am neither from the South West or the South East.

Bari22:
let nmandi surrender himself to the Nigerian army now

Surrender himself to the Army because? Are you confused or what? They are saying the Army has no right to even come close to Kanu, you are saying he should surrender to the Army.

babyfaceafrica:
Whybshould they return?.. Falana go to court abeg..you no sabi anything

See who's talking. Watin you sabi? Even your papa sef no fit clean Falana shoe.

I have been a silent reader on Nairaland but I had to register just to tell how disappointed I am with Buhari and the military. I have traveled far and wide and I tell you that it's very hard to see military men(in uniforms) in other countries. I traveled to the US last year and I didn't see a single soldier throughout my stay. I only saw soldiers on TV but never did I see them on the streets.

It's totally unacceptable and unconstitutional of the Nigerian Army to invade civilian areas in a show of force. You don't intimidate civilian populace with weapons, especially in an area where the tension is high. It's complete terrorism on the part of the Army and I would like to advise them to stop whatever they are doing. The police should be deployed in cases like this.

It's just like a lion threatening to eat a rat and then few weeks later the lion comes closer to the rats house all in the name of "Show of force". Don't you think the rat would attack the lion just to gurrantee its safety? Don't you think the rat has reasons to attack first because of fear? This provocation by the Nigerian Army should stop, this Biafran issue should not be escalated further. The military should leave the court to decide Kanu's fate, they cannot take laws into their own hands.

I am not a Biafran supporter in anyway. All reasonable Nigerians should be against this madness. If we don't condemn the Nigerian military now, they will do this over and over again with impunity and you wouldn't know when it's going to be your turn. You might praise the army and condemn the Igbos now, but remember that we live in a world of karma.

I agree with Falana and all Nigerians APC or PDP should do the same..
