The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Kukah, says pro-Biafra activists are entitled to their agitation and should not be crucified for it. He also advised the Federal Government to look at the positive side of Nnamdi Kanu, a leader of the pro-Biafra movement and promoter of Radio Biafra now in detention, and draw him closer rather that prosecuting him.

According to Kukah, since every Nigerian has the right to pursue his or her goal in life, the ongoing agitation for Biafra is legitimate.

Speaking on the topic: “The Pursuit of Happiness: Some Thoughts On Human Rights, Freedom And Justice In Nigeria,” at the 41st Convocation Lecture of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, the cleric advised President Muhammadu Buhari to dialogue with Kanu and his fellow activists, in order to ensure peace.

While stressing that the arrest of Kanu by security operatives forced multitudes across the globe to embark on protests for his release, Kukah argued that no governor in Nigeria could command the number of people that the pro-Biafra leader brought out without any form of inducement.

Kukah said: “This country cannot continue this way. The Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has the right to seek Biafra since we have freedom of expression. The problem of Nigeria should not be with Kanu but with those who let the door open.

“The President of Nigeria or any governor, unless he pays, cannot bring the number of people that Kanu brought out.

“The anxiety of Nigeria should be that a young man (Kanu) who can bring out this great number of people is worth doing business with.”

The bishop called on Nigerians, especially politicians, to strip themselves of lust for power and greed for material gain, saying they do not bring happiness.

you dey go anoda one

Kukah was the only clergy i trust in the whole christendom but his recent acts are giving me a second rethink. Hope he is not among the yam eaters or saboteurs of the nation

SEUN , I hope you understand

Even in the days of Moses , some Egyptians accepted the fact that the Israelites should be set free. That's why some Egyptians followed the Israelites to the promise land


The reason I mentioned your name SEUN, is that I want you to look beyond today into the future

What future.? A future where Naira land is accepted by citizens of former Republic of Nigeria.


Look at the money you will still be making.


As for Kukah, God bless him for being bold in saying the truth.

It is unfortunate that pastors from the most so called sophisticated region are mute about this but quick to deceive people like the posters below that NIGERIA will never breakup even though the aura of injustice fills the landscape of Nigeria.

NO NATION BUILT ON INJUSTICE LASTS FOREVER ONCE THE OPPRESSED RISE UP TO FREEDOM

THAT'S WHY COLONIALISM AND SLAVERY STOPPED THE MOMENT THE BLACK RACE VOICED OUT

i think this man is right, even wole soyinka said it, even if you kill the messenger you cant kill the message.

Dialogue my long d.ick. Government doesn't dialogue with terrorists.

Kukah should get realistic. Kanu made statements inciting people against the government and that's treasonable felony.


He also incited violence against other ethnic groups.



His days in jail will be longer than "Mogidi's d.ick"


mogidi, na joke i dey oh.
