LegendHero: IPOB are notorious terrorists. That’s why they jailed the terrorists Ekpa in Finland.
You are defending terrorists just as some Northerners were defending Boko Haram when they first started.
They aren't the same and shouldn't be compared. One started violence after he was sponsored by the government another started after the government had killed his unarmed innocent relations and members for years simply because they said they needed their own country due to marginalization.
ImpartialGuy: Elementary economics teaches us that importation kills an economy and exportation improves the economy. I'm shocked that people who attended universities (I could be wrong about this) are bragging about importation in 2025.
If one government comes in power and blocks the importation of certain commodities and items, you will say that you are being targeted and victimized. If you like learn. If you like keep arguing baselessly.
What I did in the comment you quoted is called constructive criticism.
One sided analysis... Importation kills an economy when the goods in that country can favourably compete with those from another country.
On another note, do you know that government keeps placing heavy taxes on imported products and these import duties give a lot of revenue to the government. Why do you think they don't want the ports in the east to be functional? They only keep creating new ports in LAGOS alone simply because the revenue being generated is out of this world and a huge chunk of it goes to Tinubu. Don't worry all that is about to end. I'm here to give you the good news that *Biafra is here!*
SmartPolician: This is just big grammar. Tinubu should restructure this country so that everyone will control their resources and pay taxes to the centre. Once that is done, nobody will be asking these kinds of silly questions.
I'm surprised that Tinubu has refused to set the motion for restructuring after calling for it for over a decade. Politicians are horrible people.
It's too late for that now... That lone has been crossed already, Biafra is already here. Nigeria will be divided
Kudje prison loading. This is why you need a lawyer to articulate your case
Kanu needs a course in anger management. Insulting everyone insulting blacks does not buy you favours. Keep speaking your truth and you will be heard.
Simon Ekpa used the same defence in Finland and he was jailed.
Will you shout at a judge in the UK even if you don't agree with their judgement? NO It is contempt of court. You have not even been sentenced and you are yelling on your presumption
Why do the lawyers quote different sections of the constitution while defending a client or trying to prove a statement of fact?
The constitution is what guides and determines when someone has done something wrong and who is a guilty party.
You can't convict someone if the constitution doesn't make provision for it.
I know you hate the man and probably Igbos by extension but your constitution has a loophole that needs to be addressed. He found the loophole and that makes it impossible to convict him.
LegendHero: Good that they can sanction terrorists. This is good.
Sanction all Boko Haram, Fulani herdmen Miyetti Allah, and IPOB terrorists.
IPOB is a registered organization all over the world including America. The numerous massacre of unarmed protesters of Igbo descent and the invasion of Fulani herdsmen led to the formation of ESN or unknown gun men.
Whatever happened after then is what we are seeing.
Ewedegubbler: Kanu’ must stay out of this. This fool messed up the end sars protest and how he’s trying to insert himself into this.
He didn't, his talks were used after the ENDSARS had ended. During ENDSARS not many people knew he had said anything.
ENDSARS failed because apart from fighting police and protesting or destroying stuffs, the citizens had no concrete plans. The planners were hunted and everyone ran to safety. Don't forget that counter protests were formed. It was basically southerners that were involved just a few northerners.
If during the heat, everyone had joined and probably headed to aso rock for a showdown like other African countries, we'd probably have gotten a better country by now.
madridguy: Nnamdi Kanu should stop gum-body with the Nigeria Christian. For many years you have claimed to be a Jewish so stay one lane I am still waiting for the US/UK special forces that will bring you out from the Nigeria custody.
Obierika: The animal jumped bail, fled to another country and started causing problems for Nigeria from there; he has no basis to ask for due process in the manner of his rearrest
Wisdom is profitable to direct... Even the court said he didn't jump bail because his home was attacked and over 20 people killed including his dog. The plan was to kill him unfortunately, it didn't work out, obviously only an imb.ecile would have stayed and only an imb.ecile would've expected him to stay.
So he caused problems by talking but those that carry guns to kill are patted on the back and reintegrated into the society to face the families of those they've killed. When you see people defending the wrong things, it becomes obvious that lack of exposure has really affected people mentally
BATified2023: another Ibo calling Nigeria a zoo n they wonder y no one will vote them into power.
Continue
In saner climes, when citizens are being attacked, security agents come to their aid but here, the army will tell you they've not been instructed to engage those killing you. The police will refuse to come until hours later when the assailants have killed people in their hundreds then police will show up.
Kwara indigenes said DSS came to collect guns from the hunters before the Fulani Bandits came to attack and kill them. Where else is such done if not in a zoo??
Other countries will arm their citizens to fight against killers.
The case of the man that defended himself and finally killed the herdsman that stabbed him, how did it end? He was convicted to die.
We have a constitution, we have human rights that are enshrined in the constitution. Selfdefense isn't a crime in the world but in Nigeria, it is a crime when you defend yourself against a killer herdsman. Isn't Nigeria a zoo? Things here are done upside down that's why it's called a zoo.
How can a country sign a charter and still go against it... Who does that?
You welcome bandits to a meeting, they come with their guns, they even come on the media to threaten security operatives but someone who was only on radio talking is being held for years. Tell me what makes Nigeria different from a zoo.
How many countries have you seen operating 2 different constitutions? One for the North and another for the South?
Tell me those things that are being done correctly on this country, name them!
Satazaa: I am extremely saddened that some Nigerian Christians who don't understand that deep down Amoricans who they perceived as fighting for them have hidden agendas to sow discord amongst us so that our progress can be stalled or country breaks, statistically more Muslims have been killed more than Christians in Northern Nigeria, Some naive Nigerians do not understand that the same Amoricans were the one that illegally toppled Ghadafi and the consequences of that is why the whole of the horn of Africa is in this mess today, How can you be the architect of a problem and pretending that you suddenly care
So you'd rather wait for your turn to die by the dagger of a Fulani from SeneGambia?
A referendum should be conducted. It's not by force to be in the same country with backward tribes that want you dead and hate your progress.
Saturnalia: I do not understand why the Nigerian Government cannot procure more Military equipment from Russia aside the MI-35 Gunships which Buhari procured.
Nigeria needs sophisticated weaponry from Russia just like Algeria and Egypt are doing.
We need S-400 Air Defense Systems, T90 Tanks, BMPT-90 Terminators, TOS-1A Artillery platforms, BM-30 Smerch, PANTSIR-S1, ISKANDER-E, MIG-29s, SU-35,
Goddamnit! Nigeria is practically defenseless.
The Nigerian Government must understand that preparing for war is the best way of securing peace.
Purchase to do what? Dash to the bandits? Or use to kill non Muslim soldiers? They should stick to embezzling the money and stacking it abroad biko.
Flangelo12: I remember vividly the chest beating and arrogance here on Nairaland, far back as 2015.
People appealed to you lot, cajoled, coaxed, tried to rub minds with you, mbanu!
Kanu would take no overtures, became a demi-god, a lord unto himself.
Burn Lagos, stone Kumuyi, kill them.
Now, you're talking about justice.
Aveg, go and sit down.
He MUST be cushed.
Crushed like the gnat he is.
The zoo with all the SANs and 5 years couldn't hold anything against him, their court still discharged him but they kept him in solitary confinement. Even if you're given 20 more years, you still wouldn't be able to win him in your court.
You guys keep dancing round and round without achieving anything. The case for to supreme court now it's back to the beginning, only in the zoo. Other cases end at the supreme Court but this one has gone back to the beginning because you have no case against him.
He will walk free at the end of the day and Biafra will be established. This is the final lap. I can breathe Biafra already. The prophesy since 2018 is about to come to fruition.
He has suddenly found his voice again. He keeps trying to clamp down on the Internet because the jihadists are being exposed through there. What I know is that they can't overrun Nigeria
Glimpsetv: Tension as Truckloads of Fulani Herders Allegedly Arrive Kwara Border for INEC Registration
Reports from remote communities in Kwara State’s Kaiama and Baruten local government areas have sparked alarm, as residents claim that truckloads of Fulani herders from various parts of Nigeria—and possibly beyond—are being brought to INEC registration centres for voter enrolment.
Locals describe the movement as massive and unprecedented, raising concerns about potential political manipulation and security risks in these border communities.
Both Kaiama and Baruten, predominantly Batonu-speaking areas, share a porous boundary with the Republic of Benin, making cross-border movements difficult to monitor.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) recently commenced its nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise. Online pre-registration began on August 18, 2025, while in-person registration at local government offices and designated centres started on August 25, 2025. The exercise is scheduled to run until August 30, 2026.
Video footage shared by Sahara Reporter on X has already sparked widespread reactions, with many expressing concern over the scale of the mobilisation.
Residents and online users continue to watch developments closely and share their thoughts in the comments.
BrutusOj: Fight for Gold at play here. The FG needs to go strong on countering all of this nonsense called bandit. The locals organise this thing to discourage outsiders from coming for mining activities in their areas after spending millions of naira to acquire legitimate mineral titles. Solid Minerals is the reason behind all the banditry in the north. Illegal miners will be shielded.
I never knew the North had so many solid minerals that the country has never benefitted from since 1960.
There's no word like Ibo it's Igbo. There wasn't any coup, this is just an orchestrated plan to thwart the protest against the unjust lengthy trial of MNK without conviction or release.
So coups are now planned within just days and they wanted to execute it on 25th and they just found out a few days before the protest. Lamba everywhere!
yinkus6750: I agree that there is hunger in the land. Survival in Nigeria of today is not easy. I hope the government takes drastic measures to assuage the suffering of the masses. The economy is in shambles, and this in charge don't have the solution to it.
They actually have solutions to it but they are hell-bent on impoverishing the masses. They keep taxing the masses without giving anything in return. No good roads, no water, no light, no health care, no housing. They just keep collecting taxes and enriching themselves.
Igbophobia: If not that most Africans are patently stewpid, I don't see why everyone doesn't see the handwriting on the wall. It's only a matter of time before these terrorist groups fprm a common front and take over the country the way Talibaan did in Afghaanistan. So you know whyy I say Africaans are stewpid? They have simply refused to address the root cause of their problem which is the Berlin Conference. They hve resigned their fate to the countries formed by the whiteman who came from thousands of miles for them. The blackmaan lives for today. That's why when you taaalk aabout restructuring or dissolving Nigeria potentially aalong tribal lines, those from the North aand West start wailing becaause of the blackman's avarice for wealth in another people's land. Soon these swarm of marauders will devour the laand.
The way I see these terrorist groups, each group belongs to a particular set of politicians. This new one will thrive like its predecessors. After a few months, another new one will emerge just to make money from kidnapping and give the proceeds to its owners.
Nigeria is such an interesting place and I'm glad the whole world is watching it all unfold in 10K HD
sreamsense: You like deceiving yourself! The reason he gave for forming ESN wat because they are killing you, but at the end of the day ESN ended up killing Igbos for igbos. Ipob/ESN killed more Igbos than Fullani, they tagged anybody not in their interest in Igbo land as saboteurs and mark for killing or attack. How is the mission achieved?
At the end of the day, ipob/ESN were the ones pretending as fulanis and hide in the bushes to kill Igbos. Soludo himself confirmed that 99% of criminals arrested were Igbos. Mbah of Enugu said something similar. So, ipob/ESN only created more insecurity in the Biafra land, you better thank Tinubu for breaking the backbone of IPOB/ESN, otherwise; you for lock yourself up again tomorrow Monday, but Tinubu has set you free, don't entangle yourself in bondage again
There's insecurity by those claiming to be IPOB there's also insecurity by Ebubeagu working with security operatives. Which Tinubu? Lol! He needs to set Kwara state and other Northern states free from herdsmen menace. We don't need his freedom in the east. What we need is a referendum.
Ibkay32: Sometimes, the kind of dmb* topics some people bring here make me wonder if Nairaland is actually rated 18+. Because honestly, I can’t imagine a full-grown adult coming up with something that shallow. It’s either people just post without thinking, or they just enjoy displaying ignorance for attention.. So if it truly happens, you can't think straight of what to do or until you asked what to do?
Are you trying to tell me you've never heard of a man sleeping with his son's wife?? That shit happens often especially when the son isn't well to do and the father is the one providing for his son's family
Toruibestate: My father died at 63 years, his elder brother of same father, same mother is 73 years. The elder brother has been sick for two years and right now the sickness has gotten worse then my father that wasn't sick died on September 5 after two months of illness.
My cousins really tried during my father's death but they told i and my siblings not to tell their father of his only remaining brother's death and since they believe his present mind won't be able to handle it, being on sick bed himself, he may die if he finds out.
But is it right for him not to know? He will think his brother refuse to come check up on him though he was told of the illness of my father and his reply was let him not die o... What do you think of all these?
@Ditari of Ijaw.
So you want your uncle to die as well abi? Your cousins are wise.
Kanu and ekpa had wasted many Igbo youths including those he paraded as ESN in the bushes. These were many able Igbo youths that thought being soldiers for Biafra will be great not knowing Kanu was merely deceiving them by telling them to continue to fight in empty stomachs with hope that once Biafra is realized, they will be paid. Who do you expect to believe such things? Did you say fools? Off course you are not far from truth, if you had said so.
Meanwhile, as those youths were fighting with empty stomachs, Kanu was busy enjoying donations and buying Fendi cloths. Where are able youths like Ikonso even if he wants to join army or police? Kanu/ekpa had wasted him. What of gentle? Wasted! So many of them were wasted, so no more enough able youths to apply despite they are still enjoying one Nigeria
If you had followed Kanu's live broadcasts, you'd have known the reason for forming his ESN... It's because of them that most of the bushes in the old Eastern region aren't occupied by Fulani Bandits compared to other parts of the country. Most of the Fulani kidnapping and killing spots in the east are beside army checkpoints. This only points to one thing, those guys can't thrive where there's no army especially in the East. The recent show of shame where the army and police were frolicking with the bandits is in the Internet space. Bandits are even making live broadcasts and issuing warnings.
Their plans of taking over the whole of Nigeria can't work but they will try anyway.
In his broadcast Nnamdi Kanu said "they will kill us, we will kill them and at the end, Biafra will come". He also said "they will come with their armies at the end they will have no where to return to". Numerous Local governments in the North have been run over by bandits. Very soon, the only safe place will be their state capitals which will also be run over.
It's only a matter of time, Nigeria or rather Northern Nigeria and Middle belt will be run over. Others will find their way.
sreamsense: Yes, oh; because he is Igbo killing Igbos, but failed when he wanted to extend to south west ordering his men to burn down Lagos, kill Tinubu, blah, blah...until one Chinasa burnt down brt in Lagos. So, he is still in the detention to safeguard future Igbos that he might have considered saboteurs. He must pay fully for people he had ordered to be killed, and the Igbo youths he wasted in the bushes as ESN to the extent army and police couldn't find enough active Igbo youths to be recruited anymore.
And among the remaining Igbo youths are cowards people like you that have embraced Nigeria politics and shunned Kanu and ekpa. We expected you to carry on on the legacies of ekpa and Kanu by inherited his radio station so you can continue promoting ipob, but you are only hiding looking for soft part of ipobism to hide and make empty noise.
Kanu will be released tomorrow when he becomes 76years old and can no longer vomit trouble as well as ceasing all his traveling documents. He looked for trouble, let him face the consequences. Emotional noise will not interfere with court judgement
We don't have foolish Igbo youths. The Igbos know the hatred for them is massive. It's only a foolish Igbo boy that will willingly join an army which also has repentant Bokoharam members.
Well, long before your so called 76 years, Igbos would've had their Biafra given to them through Referendum by Trump.
