When the sides with attack minded tacticians score a goal their reaction is to try and get more and more goals. On the other hand when teams with defensive minded tactician like Amorim score one goal they immediately resort to defend that one goal.
DomPerignon: The law used to convict Kanu wasn't repealed as claimed.
The law was simply amended by expanding it.
The amended law even stated clearly that the new act did not see to an end of all ongoing cases or convictions as those were still captured in the new law.
It is also not the Judge's duty to guide any party before it especially an arrogant defendant who had sacked his own legal team to represent himself .
The judge's only role is to look at the facts and evidence brought before it.
That is why Justice Omotosho did not respond to kanu's outbursts in court demanding that Omotosho should point out the section of the criminal code he was standing trial for.
Omotosho's final ruling is available online and no single lawyer has faulted it rather the ones from your side are now doing whataboutism and now begging for President Tinubu to grant kanu a release based on a pardon.
If they have an argument against Omotosho's final ruling , why are they not all appealing his conviction?
Speaking of appeals, Kanu's appeal will not be challenging Omotosho's ruling but will rather be more interested in a reduced sentence which will be denied since Omotosho was magnanimous enough to sentence kanu to life instead of the death sentence he got.
Kanu will spend a good length of time behind bars because I don't see Tinubu releasing him .
Tinubu will leave that decision to a northern President who I know will in turn deny Kanu a pardon.
So Kanu has at least 14ys to spend until 2037.
You are wasting your precious time explaining anything logical to these people. Allow them to open as many sugary threads to make themselves happy in their heads on Nairaland.com. It can never change the reality on ground that Nnamdi Kanu is incarcerated on a life imprisonment jail term in the sweltering heat of a Sokoto correctional facility.
OyigboUpdate: I am officially back. I will be re-uploading from Ijelespeaks too. And I will soon start posting videos on a new YouTube channel. No space for IPOB terrorist on this platform
Welcome back. IPOB propaganda machinery has been on overdrive since Nnamdi Kanu's life imprisonment conviction. On a lighter note before you begin .....
This strumpet is a low down dirty liar. She started her career in poorly scripted Yoruba comedy films before crossing into the English speaking side of Nollywood where she was promptly stereotyped to play courtesan roles because her only asset was her big backside. Let her mention this imaginary script and the director of this imaginary movie. If Nkechi Blessing was offered that kind of script She would have grabbed it with both hands because it is no different from other courtesan roles she has been playing even way back in the Yoruba comedy movies. This lady is a very poor actress. She has never acted any cerebral roles that would require her learning long dialogue. Majority of her repertoire is just being in skimpy dresses,shaking her backside. That is NOT acting!
attackgat: In the video below, the Abia State house Of Assembly member representing Umuahia central, Anthony Chinasa, has declared that, IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, is a political prisoner. Honourable Chinasa urged President Tinubu to use his office and set Nnamdi Kanu free.
It is obvious that this state assembly man is only using the name of Nnamdi Kanu for content creation and political leverage. He knows they are easily manipulated. This is the same card Yele Sowore,Maxwell Opara,Alloy Ejimakor and other Internet content creators have been playing. These manipulators know that the Ibo NEED a messianic figure so they create this content around one. However it doesn't change the harsh reality on ground that Kanu is a convicted terrorist serving a life imprisonment sentence in a solitary cell in a Sokoto correctional facility.
DeltaFire: NNAMDI KANU’S MISDEEDS & CRIMINALITY AGAINST IGBO NATION Straight From Naija, Facebook 27 Nov 2025
When every region in Nigeria was busy building a new nation, the East was battling an existential crisis.
From 1967 to 1970, no other region felt the full weight of the war.
Only Igbo people. Only our homeland witnessed starvation used deliberately as a weap0n.
And when the war ended, even Ojukwu expressed regret and urged Ndi Igbo to begin the long road of reintegration, political participation, and rebuilding. Yet many clung tightly to the victimhood and unresolved pain of that era. That is where the trau*ma bond began.
Most families did not tell their children the truth about the w ar. Survivors were too busy rebuilding. There was no time for communal healing or emotional processing.
In just three years, Ndi Igbo lost generational wealth, land, institutions, businesses, careers, and stability. They had to rebuild from nothing. And because the pain was never acknowledged, the wound remained open and waiting to be exploited.
Decade after decade, whenever it was finally time for Ndi Igbo to consolidate political power and strengthen regional institutions, a new charlatan without aka oru , with no legacy, no governance experience, nothing to show for themselves , would rise and weap0nize Biafra for personal gain.
They knew one thing: invoke “marginalization,” trig*ger the old scar, resurrect the w ar trau ma, and drag Ndi Igbo back into 1967 psychologically.
Then came Kanu, the most charismatic and explosive of the agitators before Ekpa.
KANU: THE ACCIDENTAL NATIONAL STAR
Kanu had been making noise on Radio Biafra for years, but it was his first arrest in 2015 that thrust him into national and international fame. Suddenly, a man who had been fringe became the face of Igbo agitati0n. Protests erupted. Diaspora groups mobilized. And, for the first time in decades, Igbo leaders , governors, senators, traditional rulers , publicly advocated for an agitator’s bail. They thought they could use that to score political points at home and political negotiation points at the center.
That singular moment inflated his ego and convinced him that he had divine authority.
After his release on bail, Kanu began craving that attention and national fame. He realized how easily he could command crowds and undermine established leadership.
When the courts tightened his bail restrictions, Kanu chose not to comply. Instead he instigated a scuffle, and he escaped, resurfacing abroad as a fugitive , and used his fugitive status to intensify his rhetoric.
FROM SECESSIONIST TO WARLORD
Rather than tempering his actions while on the run, Kanu escalated dramatically. His mission was no longer self-determination through political means, dialogue, or referendum. It wasn’t even secessi0n in the practical sense; he realized early on that secessi0n was impossible.
His new mandate was darker: Balkanize the region. Make it ungovernable. Create enough chaos that politicians would have to negotiate with him , even to hold elections.
He understood that Nigeria was fighting Boko Haram and bandits on multiple fronts. He believed Nigeria could not survive another conflict. So he shifted from activism to armed struggle.
FORMING ESN: WEAP0NS OF OUR MA SS DESTRUCTI0N
While on the run, Kanu formed the Eastern Security Network (ESN).
On paper, it was “self-defense.” In reality, it became the weapon of mass destruction that terr0rized Ala Igbo. He equipped them, radicalized them, and gave them ideol0gical permission to k*ill, anyone. He convinced them that the enemy was everywhere and he controlled them through terr0r, charisma, and abs0lutism. He called it command and control( auto pilot).
SIT-AT-HOME AND THE CvLT OF FEAR
Then he issued the first sit-at-home, backed by threats that anyone who dis0beyed would be ki*lled. His followers acted on that thre*at without hesitation. People were murdered on their way to work. Cars were burned. Markets were emptied. The East was held hostage — not by Nigeria, but by an Igbo man in exile. The sit-at-home started under the guise of boycotting elections first, then to Biafra Rememberance day and this set the tone and blueprint for subsequent sit-at-homes ordered by IPOB.
When Kanu said, “If I give an order in the South East, who is that person that will dare disobey?” He meant everyone: — his followers, — the ordinary masses, — business owners, — elders, — traditional rulers, — even the politicians.
And he wasn’t wrong. Theory had become reality. Fear had become law.
A REGION WITHOUT LEADERSHIP
Just so we are clear, Igbo leaders lost their mantle long before Kanu arrived. For decades, the political class eroded trust with c0rruption, selfishness, weak advocacy, and zero vision. Nature abh0rs a vacuum. Kanu saw that distrust and weap0nized it. That is why even politicians and public figures who now defend him could not speak up when it mattered.
Their own communities didn’t respect them anymore.
Kanu shattered what little political order remained, polarized families, and positioned himself as the only true “voice of the Igbo.”
By the time he was re-arrested and brought back to Nigeria, his movement had already fractured. Into many offshoot, factions, departments. They operated on the mandate of his auto-pilot : obey the last command.
His own miscalculations and internal conflicts within IPOB weakened him. The once untouchable figure soon became a prisoner , literally and symbolically.
His trial, the charges, the judgment , all of it slowed the machinery of IPOB, but it didn’t kill the ideology. A new vacuum emerged, even more dangerous than before.
AND INTO THAT VACUUM OF ABSENCE WALKED SIMON EKPA.
Ekpa studied the playbook, the psychology, the fundraising, the trauma, the fear , and took everything Kanu did to a darker level. Kanu himself publicly approved him and urged his followers to follow him. Kanu terr0rized the East with his public orders for his boys to invade prisons, k*ill military and police , and innocent Igbo people , Ekpa added his own flair and industrialized the terr0r. Kanu operated from the same place of delusion mixed with charisma.
They both operated from cold calculation and profit.
Ekpa like Kanu realized one thing, Poor people at home cannot finance a revolution, a revolution in their pockets that is... But a frigh*tened diaspora Igbo can.
All Ekpa had to do was keep the blueprint set by Kanu: — weap0nize trau*ma, — weap0nize marginalization, — weap0nize fear, — weap0nize nostalgia, — weap0nize vi0lence, and present himself as the “true successor” of Kanu’s struggle.
IPOB unleashed the deadliest version of their sit-at-home , the one was every Monday, the one that destr0yed businesses, education, transportation, and economic life in Ala Igbo. They sent orders from the radio broadcasts and social media and the East bled.
Not even Bok0 Haram had ever shut down the entire North. Bandits could never shut down the entire Northwest. But men living comfortably outside of Nigeria shut down the entire Southeast every Monday for years.
This is the evolution of our exploitation , from Uwazurike 's MASSOB, to Kanu 's IPOB/ESN, and finally to Ekpa’s own terr0r franchise. The same trau*ma. The same manipulati0n. The same cycle. But each generation worse than the last.
And at the root of it all is the wound we never addressed , the wound from 1967 that our forebearers never healed, the wound that keeps being reopened by opportunists.
How long must Ndi Igbo continue suffering for Biafra!?
This is a fair account of the crisis in Eastern Nigeria engineered by Ojukwu,Uwazuruike,Kanu and Ekpa. A conquered and defeated people will always seek for a messiah to lead them and will tend to believe every word no matter how preposterous sounding. However watch them come to this thread and deny that the author of the thread is not Ibo. They are so easy to manipulate and always refuse to face reality because they have been fed with ceaseless lies,falsehood and propaganda since year 1970.
Watch him spreading lies and propaganda that Buhari was buried in a shallow grave and replaced by Jubril al Sudani and his supporters lapped it up.....
Here is a video of the insufferable buffoon announcing thr death of Buhari and his replacement by Jubril al Sudani in Aso rock villa and his dunderhead supporters believed him??
helinues: That late Buhari was cloned, replaced by one Jubril from Sudan was something deliberately concocted by Kanu which he used to fool millions of his supporters.
How was he able to convince them about something not just logical. There was even a guy Yoruba/Hausa lineage also believed the story.
If you believed the story then, what convinced you to believe the story?
Mindless propaganda and the fact that his followers wanted to believe him no matter how preposterous his false narrative was because a defeated and conquered people can only hope.....even right now Kanu is still pushing his falsehood through his lawyers and his brother Emma powerful.
Watch the video below where Nnamdi Kanu was sprouting his propaganda and deceiving his IPOB rabble that he could go to Abuja and bring back Buhari's head on a stake and the rabble were hailing him as an Ohamadike....pathetic!
Weekend propaganda from the office of Maxwell Opara and Alloy Ejimakor coordinated by the convict Nnamdi Kanu from his 2"×2" cell in the Sokoto desert. They give their supporters what they want to hear.
This is why Ruben Amorim can not command any tactical respect. Against a 10 man Everton team he refused to remove the strait jacket of rigidity and cowardice in which he has enveloped Manchester United and stuck to his silly system. Now the same Everton with 11 players are being thrashed at the Hill Dickinson stadium 3-0 by Newcastle and it is only 45 minutes gone.
Before this game started Manchester United had already dropped to 11th position on the league table. By the time the lunch game tomorrow against Palace ends the position of the team can just be imagined!
No known laws was used to convict him, Omotosho is a corrupt human being masquerading as a judge. Can you lift a part of the Nigerian constitution as amended that was breached by MNk?
The ones that carry AKs and wipe communities for no just course are called bandits. The guy with the microphone who says defend your land against invaders and look for separate nation from this evil nation is the terrorist.
Silly!
Like I told the other IPOB dunderheads,you are free to swallow as many cubes of St Louis sugar to make yourself happy. The diabetic delusion is your cross to carry. You can decieve yourself all you want but the harsh reality is that Nnamdi Kanu is locked up in a tiny solitary cell in a correctional facility in the hot Sokoto desert. Take it from someone who once lived and worked in Sokoto for 6 years. It is not a pleasant place to reside as per the harsh weather coupled with the swarms of flies at day time and the hordes of mosquitoes in the night. So facing reality it is up to Nnamdi Kanu to count his teeth with his tongue and use his brain by lodging his appeal fast and throw himself at the mercy of the Justices of the appellate court and hope they show him mercy and reduce the life sentence to like 20 years. On the other hand he is free to follow the advice of persons like you,the IPOB pastor in this story or his charge and bail lawyers. He can continue to ask the Justices to "show him the law" OR continue to tell the Justice that, " He does not know the law." OR he can continue to be unruly towards the Justices and say they are corrupt. The choice is left to Nnamdi Kanu because he is the person behind bars. He knows where the shoe is pinching him.
jude33084: it clearly showed that his prison cell is more confortable than youy\r present home
Make yourself happy in your head by swallowing sugar. It's your diabetic delusion and doesn't change the reality of the fact that Nnamdi Kanu is a convicted terrorist serving a sentence for life imprisonment in a tiny 2"x2" solitary cell in the sweltering and hot weather in the Sokoto desert.
Nnamdipapa: BIAFRA BUSINESS ORGANIZATION FROM 1999- DATE
Uwazuruike started this Biafra business in 1999, collecting monthly Akawo from ndị Igbo in the name of getting them Biafra,
Along the line he summoned ex Biafra soldiers who fought during the 1967-1970 civil war, tell them to come Owerri for documentation that they will get paid, he collected about #2000 each from them for documentation and till date those ex Biafra soldiers didn't see any Kobo 😂😂😂,
Around 2008 Uwazuruike started issuing a Biafra passport to ndị Igbo at the cost of #10,000 and by then he had already employed Nnamdi Kanu, many of you don't know that kanu did his Biafra Business apprenticeship program under Uwazuruike,
So millions of ndị Igbo started paying for the Biafra passport because Uwazuruike told them that the United Nation has already approved the sovereign state of Biafra and the passport price will increase after the formation of the Biafra country so they should pay for the passport on time,
Millions of ndị Igbo started paying into the first Bank account that Uwazuruike made available to them 😂😂😂😂😂😂 then kanu was coordinating the purchase of the passport from UK and other European countries and he saw how lucrative Biafra business is and how foolish millions of ndị Igbo is, then decided to pull out from Uwazuruike to start his own Biafra business,
Kanu pulled out from Uwazuruike around 2011 and started his own Biafra business in 2012 with the name IPOB, then in 2014 Kanu Officially registered IPOB in the UK as a Profitable Private Limited liability Company that has nothing to do with freedom fighting, sovereignty, Revolution or politics, kanu started collecting monthly Akawo from ndị Igbo both home and abroad, then in 2019 kanu increased his Akawo amount from #300-#500 monthly for millions of ndị Igbo at home then for those who are in Europe he increased their monthly Akawo to €40,
After kanu was re-arrested in 2021 Simon Ekpa who was doing his Biafra Business apprenticeship program under kanu decided to break away from IPOB just like kanu parted ways with MASSOB,
In 2022 UK government dissolved IPOB WORLDWIDE LIMITED COMPANY, then kanu's wife opened another IPOB business company in 2023 so as to sustain the flow of her husband's business organization,
In 2024 Simon Ekpa was arrested then Ngọzi Orabueze who was doing her Biafra business apprenticeship program under Ekpa took over the business and since then has been conducting and collecting fundraising back to back
Maybe after Ngọzi Orabueze, another rogue will surface and continue the business,
It's unfortunate situation
OP, This is the sad and unfortunate truth. A group of brigands just profiteering from the ignorance of their own people. Handing over and taking over from each other while fleecing and destroying their own people.
gidgiddy: The Bishop of Oji River Diocese, Enugu State, Bishop Ikechukwu Egbuonu, has shared his experience visiting IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu in Sokoto prison. Speaking on AIT, the Bishop said he had to visit Kanu to see how he was doing and was surprised to see that Kanu was in high spirits despite his travail. According to the Bishop, Kanu is still adamant that his trial was baseless as it was done on a none existent law, and that the illegal way he was kidnapped and brought to Nigeria meant the courts had no jurisdiction to try him
He said that Nnamdi Kanu urged him to tell Igbo youths not to turn violent over his conviction, that the judgment will definitely overturned at the court of appeal
When asked if he supports Nnamdi Kanu's agitation, Bishop Ebuonu said that although he does not support everything Nnamdi Kanu does, he supports the agitation because Nigeria is not working
He also said that the day Nnamdi Kanu was sentenced to life improvement, Igbo land felt like someone had died
Weekend propaganda and delusion by an IPOB clergyman to make his mindless followers feel happy in their empty heads. It doesn't change the harsh REALITY on the ground that Nnamdi Kanu is a convicted terrorist serving a life imprisonment jail term in the sweltering heat of a Sokoto correctional facility. No amount of lies,falsehood and propaganda can change that. Nnamdi Kanu has ONLY ninety(90) days to appeal this prison sentence and the days are already running fast. He should stop all this silly internet theatrics and file the dawn appeal before it is too late and then his dunderhead supporters will start lamentations and gnashing of teeth. Kanu is the one incarcerated in a 2"×2" solitary confinement in the heat of the Sokoto desert. He who wears the shoes know where it pinches him. He should shun this daily propaganda. Quickly file his appeal and hope that the appeal justices will show him mercy and reduce the jail term to 20 years like his colleague convicted ISWAP terrorists. Kanu use his tongue to count the teeth in his mouth! He should understand that false prophets like the one in this story are only using him for cruise content creation.
More content creation by Alloy Ejimakor and Maxwell Opara to make their IPOB followers happy inside their own heads. It doesn't change the reality on ground.
Threads like this are why Nnamdi Kanu is where he is right now in the scorching heat of a Sokoto correctional facility.
Complete legal ignorance and illiteracy, masquerading arrogantly as intelligence.
If really the subject of this thread is Nnamdi Kanu's next logical step then it shows he has not learnt any lessons from trusting his fate in the hands of clownish, charge and bail ignorant lawyers like Maxwell and Ejimakor.
Kanu's ONLY way out is to proceed to the appellate court in Nigeria and he has got 90 days to do this which is already counting down. If any lawyer advised him to proceed to the ICC at the Hague then he is being deceived and misled.
When you find yourself in a deep deep ditch,you need to stop digging. All these dunderheads egging Kanu on and giving him a messianic complex are just jokers because none of them are locked up and serving a life imprisonment sentence in the heat of Sokoto. Who feels it knows it. Whoever wears a shoe knows where it pinches.
See the kind of ideas that came from Kanu's twisted and tormented mind and rational human beings were calling him their saviour and messiah?
After he decieved 90%of Ibos that President Buhari was a clone named Jubril al Sudani he now advanced to decieve them that Buhari's signature had hanged and people still believed such a sick and tortured mindset?
Then this same twisted individual will pick up a microphone in a hidden studio and give instructions to his moronic followers to all sit at home every Monday and they will all concur like brainless sheep?
gidgiddy: Residents of Anambra State, particularly in Onitsha and Nnewi, have continued to observe the Monday weekly sit-at-home despite the conviction and imprisonment of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Business activities, schools, banks, hospitals, and government offices remained closed, while roads were largely deserted, reflecting the anger and solidarity of the people with Kanu.
Some residents told Vanguard that the sit-at-home is a voluntary protest by the people of the South East, not enforced by IPOB. They said past claims that IPOB imposed the lockdown were misleading, noting that criminals had previously exploited the protests to commit robberies but vanished when discovered.
Obed Nwachukwu, a resident, said, “Those hoping that markets and businesses will reopen because of Kanu’s imprisonment will have to wait. We are standing in solidarity with him until he is free.”
Another resident, Chief Okwudili Okoye, said, “The Federal Government’s claims and the Abuja Federal High Court’s judgement are unsubstantiated. Monday sit-at-home will continue as a voluntary action in demand for fairness and justice for Ndigbo. Once Nnamdi Kanu regains his freedom, normal activities will resume.”
Residents emphasized that the protest is not about IPOB alone, but a demonstration of solidarity with Kanu and a stand against what they see as lopsided treatment of the Igbo people.
You are free to make yourself happy in your own mind. The illusion is only inside your own head and the heads of your followers. However the harsh reality is that Nnamdi Kanu is a convicted terrorist serving a life imprisonment jail term in the harsh sweltering and scorching heat of a Sokoto correctional facility. No amount of self delusion can change that for now. Kanu has 90 days already counting to appeal against that sentencing. In the appeal court he will still meet some of the judges who are elevated to Justices whom he had severally insulted before. It is only Nnamdi Kanu that knows where his shoes pinch him. No amount of feel good delusion can change that. So gidgiddy,you are free to go ahead and open more propaganda threads. It doesn't remove Kanu from his incarceration.
