The proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra on Friday threatened to shut down the country over what it described as the biased handling of the trial of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, by the Federal Government.

The group, which condemned the way some of Kanu’s lawyers were denied entry into the courtroom by personnel of the Department of State Services at the resumption of his trial on Wednesday, alleged that the judiciary was being used to keep Kanu in detention perpetually without trial.

IPOB’s Director of Media and Publicity, Emma Powerful, in a statement titled, ‘We will cripple Nigeria if the Federal Government thinks it can use Justice Binta Nyako to keep our leader in perpetual detention without trial’, said whether the Federal Government liked it or not, it remained committed to the actualisation of Biafra.

The statement partly read, “We the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra unequivocally condemn the attitude of Justice Binta Nyako over the way she is handling the case of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, before her court. We are most shocked at her obvious (alleged) prejudice and bias during the last court proceedings which resulted in her whimsical adjournment of the case to January 19 and 20, 2022.

“Justice Binta Nyako is engaging in judicial rascality and impunity at the behest of the Federal Government of Nigeria aimed at keeping our leader in perpetual detention without trial. This rascality only portrays that Binta Nyako is simply playing the script handed over to her by the Fulani caliphate of which she belongs to.

“We wish to express our displeasure with Justice Binta Nyako’s handling of this case. How can a defendant be on trial without legal representation? Justice Binta Nyako has always wanted to conduct a secret trial of this high-profile case which concerns the personal liberty and human rights of the accused.”

The group alleged that the long adjournments and what seemed like open bias and doing the bidding of the DSS had eroded the confidence of the accused in the neutrality of the judge handling the case.

It added, “Justice Binta Nyako has given us sufficient reasons and grounds to doubt her ability to give justice and fair hearing to our leader considering the manner the judge has been going about this case.

“Locking out the legal representatives including one of our leader’s counsels from the United States, Bruce Fein, from the courtroom has only exposed Justice Binta Nyako’s biased and prejudiced disposition to this case before her.

“One thing the judge must understand is that we are determined in our irrevocable resolve to actualise Biafra. No amount of intimidation, persecution or prejudice by the oppressors or their agents can derail our match to freedom and the ultimate restoration of the Sovereign State of Biafra.

“Our elders, traditional rulers, religious leaders and political elite who are begging IPOB to soft-pedal must take serious note of the travesty and shenanigans playing out in Justice Binta Nyako’s Courtroom. Our patience is not infinitely elastic.”

It's very annoying. FG got nothing on him that's why they want to keep him incarcerated. IPOB is not a terrorist organization.

[s]Mumu terrorists.

Kill yourselves, Nnamdi Kanu will be sentenced to death by hanging or life imprisonment. He will surely account for all the security agencies he killed, including the innocent girls he used for rituals.[/s]

Shutdown your territories no living things must allow to walk .

GreatBoss:
Ipob and Yoruba agitators should just team up with General Ditari and the Ijaw Republic Liberation Movement Militant Forces he leads.
Ijaw produces over 90 percent of all Nigeria crude oil, and all we get in return is marginalization and Balkanization into more than six States, when all Ijaw areas share perfect boundaries with each other.
When they plan well with these Ijaw militants they stop all pipelines and Nigeria end once and for all.
Instead of Ipob wasting ibos.
We can become great neighbours in the different countries.
Ijaws are great stranger loving people, and Ibo know how to succeed in stranger land.
General Ditari and his group have even given British the Ijaw Republic documents so that they know of it.

Ibos think!!! Ijaws will never go with Biafra from now till forerever,but can work with you guys and end Nigeria if u act proper.

Perfectbeing:
The FG will use their Ijaw bulldog (Tompolo) against Gen Ditari.

General Ditari have met with Tompolo and Tompolo fully support the Ijaw Republic.
Same with so many of the largest Ijaw leaders.

GreatBoss:


So many of the largest Ijaw leaders are already working with General Ditari
Including the 5 largest Ijaw leaders.
So if Tompolo try to betray General Ditari he looses his face in the Ijaw Nation.
He say he is fully ready to support.
But if he fails, Ijaw Nation will hate him so much, remember that Tompolo is one man.
Once he betray the Ijaw Nation by being against General Ditari all his Ijaw warriors will be against him.

Is it until Tompolo enters APC that you'll know he's working for FG?
