INTERVIEW: “GERMANS MADE NO ARRESTS” – KANU - South-East governors and many groups have condemned your members attack on Ekweremadu, are you reconsidering your decision to attack the governors abroad? The simple answer is NO. We shall continue to hunt and hound them whenever they leave the shores of Nigeria. Our decision to go after the south east governors and frankly, every corrupt, wicked and opportunistic politicians is rooted in the principle of accountability of public office holders. All over the world, enlightened and brave citizens hold their public officials to account through many democratic avenues. No wonder protest averse black Africa is rooted in hopelessness, poverty and disease. The right to protest against injustice is part of the dividend of democracy as entrenched in the constitution. In the unfortunate case of Nigeria, public servants, media practitioners, citizens do not know and are starkly ignorant of the provisions of the very constitution they vow to uphold, defend and protect. Both the electorate, the elected are disappointingly docile, morally bankrupt and hopelessly hopeless such that a public call or protest against impunity and bad governance becomes treasonable offence. ... - https://247ureports.com/2019/08/interview-no-regrets-attacking-ekweremadu-more-to-come-germans-made-no-arrests-nnamdi-kanu/ |
