The picture doesn't prove he was killed by Nigerian soldiers.

there should be concrete proof and evidence that the Nigerian Army felled this fellow for any atom of Justice to prevail

The Nigerian Army just denied they ever invaded Kanu's House.. doubt anyone can counter with proof of pictures showing them inside his premises.

This is why it is stupid for anyone to die for Nnamdi Kanu or IPOB, because he wont get any justice.

The video of the Nigerian Army surrounding Kanu's house is on youtube. The video of heavy gunfire at Kanus gate is on youtube. The video of the aftermath of the raid is on youtube.

Plus, the Army declared victory over IPOB. So what do you the Army surrounded Kanu's house for? To offer him protection?

I dont know how people as different as Hausa-Fulani/Yoruba/Igbo were brought together in one madness called "one Nigeria" and people expect it will work

adelee777:
You forgot d third example; very brave Ojvkwv running for his dear life to Gabon and leaving his people at d mercy of Nigerian troops. What are you guys fed as kids? SMH.

Well at least he fought for three years before running away.

You guys ran away from Northerners even before any fight even started

Yyeske:
Talk of IPOB and not Igbos please. IPOB terrorists are the only terrorists

There are places to joke and where not to joke. The Nigerian Army does not shoot people over the issue of Biafra alone, they shoot people for different sorts of reasons. It could easily be you on the floor dead tomorow over an issue that has nothing to do with IPOB or Biafra or simply because someone doesnt like your face.

So if you are not yet mature enough to speak against military violence, make way let those who can do so.

God is listening to the cry of his people being murdered by the terrorists in uniform called the Nigerian Army simply for agitating for their freedom.

All I know is that come rain or shine, we Igbos will one dsy be free of tbis damnable creation of the white man called Nigeria

Declaring IPOB was just selective justice and everybody can see the hypocrisy, even US and UK.

Buhari has no problems proscribing IPOB that has never killed anyone but cannot do the same to his herdsmen brothers that are killing people all over the place.

Ok...

It is shocking that the Nigerian Army is still denying that it raided Kanu's House even though there are several videos of them doing so

MICHEALADEX:
I tot you people said Yorubas are fulani slave....lol you must be high on tramadol.

You may need this

Of course, a slave is a slave.

HunterofPigs:
Oh, I see. So he prays too. He wants to be the Lord Spiritual and Terrestrial of the ibo. Best of luck.

People pray, so does Nnamdi Kanu. The man often prayed before starting his broadcats

In the pictures, Nnamdi Kanu was praying which is why people bowed and knelt down.

The guy who kissed Nnamdi Kanu's shoes maybe Yoruba

HunterofPigs:
All these must also be Yoruba. You're so sick.
Full grown adults, some people's mothers and fathers have to be on their knees when talking to Dilector. I heard igbo enwe eze. But gradually, someone from that region wants to be the first true king of the ibo people. He's trying so hard to copy the Yoruba people while he insults them at the slighted opportunity. That alone is a sign of weakness and inferiority complex. Now that Kanu is hiding like a rat, it is this same Yoruba people from the zoo that are speaking up for him.

You are posting these pictures but you cant even look and see that Nnamdi Kanu is praying in all of them which is why people are kneeling or bowing aside from the the guy who kissed Kanu's shoes.

MICHEALADEX:
Thats the true ruler not this boffon called kanu...only ipob fools will quote me

I still think that the guy who bowed so low and kissed Kanu's shoe like that was a Yoruba man

Bowing is optional in Igbo culture and the few places it happens is with someone highly respected or revered such as the Obi of Onitsha.

Other cultures bow to anybody such as an elder

If I saw the Obi of Onitsha in public, I just probably would have raised both my hands and hailed "Igwe!"

The write up was concise and exposes opration Python dance as an illegality.

It also shows why IPOB cannot be termed a terrorist group no matter the utterances of Kanu.

I will be mourning all those we lost in Abia state and Obigbo to the murderous terrorist gang called the Nigerian Army.

I will never ever celebtate 1st October for as long as I live for that day was the day my people entered real bondage.

Rawani:
The Army were already there for a widely publicised military operation and were attacked by an approaching angry mob armed with bottles and stones, you sound as if they were specifically sent there to quell a riot.



The agitators should have not been so stupid as to try attacking a military procession. The Shiites were not half as lucky as the Aba agitators.

As for the invasion, blame the cowardly chest beating runaway Kanu for threatening national security by instructing his legion of followers to burn down the country to ashes if he was rearrested, and daring the military that it would meet its end if it also tried to do so in Aba.

Read Reuben Abati's letter.

Wether military brutality and extrer- judicial killings happend to Shia's or IPOB does not make it right. Doing the wrong thing, no matter how many times, will not make that action right or normal.

The Army has no business shooting people in peace times. If there is break down of law and order, it is the job of the police handle that situation. The Army is not a crime fighting unit.

If the Army were moving in a procession and IPOB attacked them with sticks and stones as they claim, does the Army have the right to respond with live ammunition? They do not. In a situation like that, what the Army should do is withdraw and alert the Police. The Army deviated from its constitutional role to become judge, jury and executioner and that is horrible.

As for Nnamdi Kanu, I still wonder how a single individual can threaten a whole country with only his mouth? Nnamdi Kanu has the right of free speech. If he likes he can say he will send Nigeria to outer space for all I care. What a person says his mouth and what he actually does are two different things. At least Nnamdi Kanu is only talking

Niger Delta militants killed destroyed properties, Nigerian government dialogued with them and gave them amnesty


Boko haram is killing everyday, government is still dialoging with them which led to release of Chibok girls

Herdsmen are massacaring people left and right, not one of them has been arrested


But what some people foaming at the mouth for is what an unarmed Kanu said or didnt say.

Laughable

Rawani:
If you watched the IPOB video it would be clear that the soldiers tried to retreat in their armoured vehicle but were continually attacked by the agitators. If a blaring siren wasn't enough warning then I wonder what would be. Besides you think an approaching angry mob armed with deadly bottles and stones does not qualify as a clear and present danger? Puuhleease.

Take it from me, the hundreds of innocent lives taken in the US already this year involved minimal confrontation (not even physical attack with bottles and stones) from the agitators.

You're sounding really ignorant so I'll recommend that you google #blacklivesmatter for more enlightenment.

The video showed Soldiers firing and retreating. Soldiers should not be shooting over sticks and stones. That is not what the Nigerian government put guns in their hands for. Did you also see the agitator who was shot in the leg?

Clashes between the civil populace and the police/Army happens every day all over the world, it is nothing new.

But when Police/Army decide that sticks and stones is enough reason to shoot into a crowd, then that wrong.

After 2 days, Soldiers in Abia state now regrouped and stormed the place killing several unarmed people. I dont even want to go into the human rights abuses they commited by gunning down people all over Aba and Umuahia and making people lie down in muddy water.

Rawani:
Have you been living under a rock?

You mean American security agents don't shoot their own citizens whether armed or unarmed?

The same American officers that would shoot you dead for moving your hands nearer to your pockets talk less of attacking them with bottles and stones?

Wow you either gotta be kidding or need to read more.

Dont turn around what I said. Even the American police will shout warning and instructions before they open fire unless a clear and present danger already exists.

But in a situation where a convoy of American Policemen are passing a group of agitators and the agitators pelt the convoy with sticks and stones, never will they get down from their vehicles and open fire directly into the crowd.

Rawani:
Is this an official U.S. Govt position or an idealistic peace advocacy NGO/agency?

I'm asking because the America I know will never tolerate anyone that tries to undermine or attack their military whether with bottles, stones or grenades like IPOB.



No wonder, nothing surprising.

The difference is that because America is a civilised place, they would never shoot their own citizens with live ammunition over being attacked with bottles and stones. That is not a good enough reason to bring in guns.

When you look at the resons they came up with to tag IPOB as a terrorist group, you just fall down in laughter

Countries have to pick and choose who to brand terrorists oe else, everybody would branded terrorist


Basically, Lie Mohammed said that Kanu is terrorist because of what he said.

But Fulani herdsmen killing people everywhere are just mere criminals

Trumpism:
How is Ugwuanyi ruling Enugu?
I think the man has enjoyed enough patient from people.

Let's starts firing him.

That useless man who never dreamt he would one day become governor?

Everybody is just tired of him

KingNom:
What on earth is happening in Nigeria? Is war about breaking out?

We need to go back to the drawing board, else countless innocent and precious lives and potentials WILL BE LOST FOREVER!

Mr. Nnamdi Kanu and his followers want to break out of Nigeria and form a New Country, the question is HOW ARE THEY GOING ABOUT IT?

An adage says 'a man danced and got a rousing applause while another did same and got a jail sentence,' what caused the difference? Their manner of approach

Their ways of presenting the dance earned them their respective rewards.

Dear Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB followers, for the love of the human life and its 'PRECIOUSNESS', kindly adjust your manner of approach to your the call for Biafra.

You can call for Biafra and cause untold hardship, war, death, calamity on countless number of PRECIOUS HUMAN LIVES, even those you are standing for, and History won't forget You for that.

On the flip side, You can call for BIAFRA in a way that will earn you tremendous respect from every quarter such that even if it is delayed, it won't be denied and you will be remembered for good forever!

Go through the words and works of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr. and Jesus of Nazareth and take a cue because the destinies of millions of Nigerians and Africans will be Greatly affected by your words and actions!

Former President Goodluck Jonathan said 'Nobody's blood is worth my Political ambition' when he conceded to Present President Muhammadu Buhari. You can say the same and act peacefully. I am very sure you will eventually win if you follow it rightly.

If Nigeria breaks into an avoidable war, what will we gain? Loss of Precious lives and Property and earn a Bad name. Kindly remember Sierra Leone, Liberia, Rwanda etc. We can tow this path peacefully Sir.

Thank You Sir

Intead of you to be questioning why your military sre shooting down unarmed people, you are writting the above trash

November 18th "Ubochi Ofe Nsala"

Lets boycott the elections umu nnem!

WHERE is the operational base of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, now? Where does the struggle for a separate Biafran nation as spearheaded by IPOB stand today? Where is Nnamdi Kanu, the ‘Jewish’ leader, spiritual godfather and Commander-in-Chief of the ‘armless’ IPOB army? Leader of Indigenous People of Biafra,

IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu In the wake of his disappearance, where are his lieutenants or, indeed, his foot soldiers who had vowed to storm the ‘zoo’ and make life unlivable for its inhabitants and their clueless leaders? The foregoing are relevant questions for IPOB,

You should be more worried that your coward Nigerian Army needs APC's and machine guns to go against unarmed people while in other civilised countries, only dialogue is needed.

Elbowroom:
Nnamdi Kanu killed the young man

You people wonder why shekau can tell some people to go and do suicide bombing and you wonder why some Ipob miscreants can confront a soldier with gun with stones and bottles

Isn't that a suicidal attempt.?

Or will u rather want the soldiers to tender their weapons to Ipob miscreants just because they don't want to shoot your so called unarmed people? And kiss their feet?

You call Ipob unarmed, please define your unarmed
Is it until a person carries ak47 that u say he or She is armed?
So if I hold a broken bottle or cutlass or stones... am unarmed.?

The kid died because kanu said

Let's consider some of NNAMDI KANU'S SPEECHES:
"Nigeria is a zoo and everybody living in that God forsaken zoo deserves to die."
There will be no election in Anambra and I Dare Buhari to arrest me or send soldiers to arrest me in Biafra land and see if any of them will return alive
I will be coming to Abuja on 21st and I will come with 1millions biafrans and if anybody Dare arrest me, Burn down the zoo and Nigeria will seize to exist
I just launched Biafra secret security to Dealt with zoo
Nobody can arrest me and if they do , zoo will seize to exist and Biafra will be achieve fast
"Kumuyi should be stoned and dealt with thoroughly if he comes to Aba for his planned crusade."
"By the time we finish dealing with the animals in the zoo, there'll be none left to tell the story."
"We are assembling weapons and we need some more money to thoroughly equip our military to enable us unleash mayhem on Nigeria."
"Niger Deltans are cowards; we know what to do to them. Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta, Rivers, Edo and Cross Rivers State are our territory and anybody who tries to oppose us will be crushed."
"No Ibo man should attend any Church where the pastor is a Yoruba man, they are criminals and fools."
"Nigeria should prepare for war, we are coming to annihilate you, my secret service are already studying the zoo and strategising."

Whatever you think Kanu has said, he still.has freedom of speech granted to him by the law. In a situation were his speech breaches the law, the law precribes that the police investigate and charge him if found wanting. Kanu is already in court.

It doesnt matter what happend in Umuahia, IPOB have their own story and the Army have their own.

What matters is if the rule of law was followed. 

Does the Armed forces regulation act allow the Army to shoot civilians if provoked? It does not.

Does the rules of engagement allow the Army to shoot civilians because of sticks and stones? Is that proportionate response? No it is not

By virtue of section 217 of the constitution, are the Army allowed to invade a persons house or any area in Nigeria during peace times and take over the job of the police? No they are not.

Is the president of Nigeria allowed to deploy soldiers in a peaceful area devoid of armed insurrection? No he is not.


Im no Lawyer but the number of laws broken in relation to opration Python dance 2 in Abia state are many and we should all condemn them

Nnamdi Kanu is one crafty man. I remember during the Presidential elections, he urged his radio listeners not to vote for GEJ, and indeed, GEJ had less votes from the SE/SS than he did in the previous elections. I think that Kanu wanted Buhari to become president because Buhari's military past would make him a far more confrontational leader than GEJ who largely ignored IPOB. Buhari fell into every trap Kanu set for him. The Kanu arrest, the media chat where Buhari could not hold his anger when Kanu was mentioned, disobeying court judgements.


Kanu then came out of jail and piled on the pressure. Disregarding his bail conditions, Kanu held mammoth crowd rallies, insulted Buhari with reckless abandon, baiting Buhari.

Had Buhari been wise, he would have been patient and used the instruments of the courts to get Kanu down. But he could not wait. The military dictator in him took over and he returned to Nigeria from London to order opration Python dance knowing fully well it would cause fracas between IPOB and the Army. The Army then headed for Kanu's home and broke all the rules of military engagement known to man.

To cover up their crimes in Abia state, they hurriedly rushed to court to declare IPOB a terrorist organisation.



I didnt even know about section 217 of the constitution that outlines the use of the military before opration Python dance 2. Now Lawyers are pouring over that section of the constitution and realising that the president not only violated the constitution by the illegal deployment of the Army, but that the Army commited gross abuse of its principles by usurping the role of the police.

Today, Amnesty International and HURIWA are investigating the gross human rights abuses of the Military in Abia state.

The entire government of Nigeria has been turned into the laughing stock of the world by their classification of unarmed IPOB as a terrorist organisation but Killer Herdsmen are 'mere criminals'.

The international goodwill Buhari enjoyed from the international community has all but disappeared while support for Biafra at home and abroad has skyrocketed.

I got to hand it to Nnamdi Kanu, he chose the best promoter of Biafra with Buhari.

Nice one by ADF. The implication could be huge because if opration Python dance was illegal, then it means that the invasion of Kanu's residence and the proscription of IPOB may well be illegal.

Yyeske:
Were you there to know what actually transpired in Umuahia before the shooting, what do you say about soldiers being attacked days before the day they came for Nnamdi kanu and the soldiers were attacked unprovoked?
Only cowardly IPOB terrorists were not in Umuahia that day

It doesnt matter what happend in Umuahia, IPOB have their own story and the Army have their own.

What matters is if the rule of law was followed.

Does the Armed forces regulation act allow the Army to shoot civilians if provoked? It does not.

Does the rules of engagement allow the Army to shoot civilians because of sticks and stones? Is that proportionate response? No it is not

By virtue of section 217 of the constitution, are the Army allowed to invade a persons house or any area in Nigeria during peace times and take over the job of the police? No they are not.

Is the president of Nigeria allowed to deploy soldiers in a peaceful area devoid of armed insurrection? No he is not.

Yyeske:
Go report to the ICC and UN

I watched Donald Trumps inaugration on CNN. While the inaugration was going on, anti- Trump protesters were fighting with Police and Army all over Washington with sticks and stones, nobody was shot at.

I saw clips of the London riots from years ago where youths attacked London Police with not only sticks and stones but petrol bombs too, the police never shot back with live ammunition.

In civilised countries, live ammunition is only last resort and it is usually against a group that is armed with guns too.

Clashes between civilians and Police/Army happens all over the world, it is nothing new. Even Police and Army have their own occasional spat here in Nigeria. But when the military or police start shooting unarmed civilians because of clash, then there is serious problem that affects everybody

What happend in Abia was just a case of Military brutality and extrer-judicial killings which all sane people should condemn.

Yyeske:
When he was provoking and attacking armed soldiers, what advice did you give him?

Povoking and attacking (with sticks and stones) is not a good enough reason for a Soldier to shoot a person. The duty of a Soldier is to shoot at someone who is armed on his level (gun)

A young unarmed man was murdered by the Nigerian Army because they dont like his politics.

It maybe a different government tomorow and anybody could be murdered for having an opposite view.

People keep calling Kanu without considering that the Nigerian Army does not shoot people over the issue of Biafra alone, they shoot peoole for all kinds of reasons

So why should Nigeria have an Army that shoots people in peace times? That is barbarism

You are shot for Biafra today, shot for restructuring tomorow, shot for protesting next tomorow. How long before it will be your turn?

How many times have we heard that the Armies of other countries are shooting civilians?

Nnamdi Kanu didnt kill this young man, this man was killed as a result of having an uncivilised and unprofessional armed force in an uncivilised Nigeria.

Adiu Bro, in the struggle for freedom, some will fall along the way. But eventually, we shall be free and it will be the duty of the free to remember the sacrifice of the dead.

Gotze1:
The north know that they are parasites. But whether they like it or not, the nation must be restructured.

And if they dont want Nigeria restructured, what will anybody do?

Restructuring is a waste of time, the North will never allow it.

Which means that everyone will either have to accept Nigeria the way it is or become an 'Nnamdi Kanu'

No two ways about it
