They fear that if they give him bail he would disappear and appear in Nigeria.

Is ekweremadu not from the East, howdy you expect the federal government to Save him when he is from the Dot
Ooh, you really think they care about you, if they do, why have they not released Kanu

Ekweremadu even shot himself in the foot when he openly went against Peter Obi.
The Igbo people have left him to his faith so you should be calling in his party to go and save him. RUBBISH

Somethings are not just about the individual involved but are about the honour and dignity of the country as a whole

Ekweremadu is not just a serving Senator but a three time Deputy Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Failure of the Buhari led FG to lift a finger to try to diplomatically resolve the Ekweremadu case is condemnable, in bad faith, and bad for the image and dignity of the country Nigeria.

And it is not like Ekweremadu committed any offence that is out of this world. He wrote to the the British High Commission and clearly communicated the purpose of his visit to the UK. This is just a loving parent trying to work out a solution to his daughter's illness.

It is obvious that the supposed victim had lied about many things including claiming that he was minor. And whatever be the case, the supposed victim is still hale and hearty!

Detention of Ekweremadu for months, even when he has been found guilty of any offence is completely unacceptable!!

Federal government refusal to help Ekweremadu is simply because he is Igbo man and a Christian.

This same government have helped lots of Hausa Muslim ladies who were cought with drugs in Saudi Arabia.

Ekweremadu should be ashamed of himself. Deputy senate president for three consecutive times and his constituency can't even of any hospital that can handle kidney related illness.

Let him enjoy his trust in oversea medical treatment as one of the privileged Nigerians
I wonder if it's real brain or poopoo is in some people head. How many hospital did thiefnubuu built in Lagos as a governor, and how many did Buhari built as president but they will run to UK for medical treatment.

Unjust? That's far from being unjust. I guess you didn't know the gravity of his offence: human trafficking for organs harvest with mountain of evidence.

Kudos bro...I like your write up and I support you.


Many people will say things about this case without critical analysis, a lot are already talking thrash without stopping to think.
Most Nigerians that conderm the Ekwerenmadus & wants him destroyed are simply based on tribal, party or religious reasons and not genuine principles which only few have.

Part of the problems of Nigeria is the people and how they reason or approach matters that is why they often chase shadows and powerful people decieve the citizens' with ease.

This "pull him down at any means syndrome" or "herd mentality" mindset is bad. That a person is a Nigerian politician or public office holder/ figure doesn't automatically make the person a criminal or quilty of accused crimes instantly, instead channel your frustrations into something good& productive......but you guess what..?

It is Nigeria as a nation and her people that this insult is targeted at not really Mr. Ekwerenmadu.
It simply means any nation can do as they wish to any Nigerian official or citizens as they please because they know nothing will happen.
Even if the accusations are right, there are better ways to handle the matter a more respectful way that Nigeria/Nigerians won't be rubbished in the process.

A diligent, right thinking government&people will demand for his repatriation to Nigeria to face his trials here just like other nations do.

No serious country or government in the world will allow any of their officials,talk more of top one be subjected to this ridicule no matter what.
This explains why Nigeria has lost huge respect world over....everyone now wants to rubbish her at any opportunity...eg Dubai(UAE) recently.

All those people condemning the man would easily have done same mistake if they were the ones involved....and it's not as if the court has pronounced him guilty yet.

The British government's action is disrespectful to our nation and is in bad faith and I disagree with this their method towards this case.

The man can still be kept under house arrest pending the conclusion of the case instead of sensationalizing things by putting him in prison.....would he have ran away and left his family or sick child..?

The so called "underaged" Boy is busy enjoying his mischief while his backers cheer on but only God will judge this matter and time will tell.

His crime was simply trying to be a good father&protector to his child&family.

This case makes me believe that there is more to it than we are told...someone/people powerful somewhere is probably pulling the strings behind.

I am no way defending him if guilty...am only stating that things should be done in a more proper& respectful manner to Nigeria according to obtainable international/diplomatic best practices.

That it is Mr. Ekwerenmadu & family today doesn't mean that it can not be you celebrating his ordeals tomorrow...so think independently.

Nigeria think deep&restore your nation's respect because what affects one will definitely affect others.
Did you noticed that almost all the Igbos in Nigeria never cared if he rot in the UK?

Did you noticed that almost all northerners never cared if he rot in UK?

Did you noticed that almost all Westerner never cared if he rot in UK?

The few that went there did it because they were colleagues!

What's the learning point?

Always identify with your tribe because that is how Africa is structured, Africans are person's of tribe.

Never neglect your people and always see reasons to protect them.

I said this because when he arrived Germany and was beaten mercilessly that should have taught him a lesson that his is no longer loved by the Igbo and he would have quickly make amends.


You were there when Buhari did everything possible to protect bokoharam members.

Based on mere allegation, a serving Senator of another sovereign country is detained for months without conviction and then the government of his own country fold their arms and do nothing
Oga don't be clever by half...didn't you see where I wrote alleged or you lack comprehension ability...?

Been a Senator is inconsequential if involved in a criminal act in another country...!! You people think it Nigeria where any goes and criminals are been celebrated...!! Britain have it laws and procedures and they are following it and there is nothing anybody can do about it...!!

Nonsense...oh because he is a bloody Senator and alleged to involved in crime he should be freed or get a special treatment...you obviously reason like a cow....!!! Britain no be Nigeria..!!

Its people like you that don't know their left from right and often mortgage their future for these useless Nigerian politicians...!!

Blazebond:
My stand on this issue is same as yours, Nigeria ought to have insisted on the u.k to release the senator after investigation have revealed that the senator is actually innocent of the crime being leveled against him,this are some of the ways this so-called developed nations undermine us,a very strong message from the Nigerian government ought to have been released publicly condemning the continued unwarranted detention of the serving senator by the British government considering the fact that all investigations have revealed that the boy lied about being an underaged individual in his press release and that the senator followed due process in his travel application for the operation.
Trying to change your writing style isn’t doing much for your case. We can tell it’s the same person behind the handles.

What implication? If you commit a crime, you're on your own whether at home or abroad. Why should the FG intervene? Being a lawmaker or whatever doesn't put him above the law. If he is arrested for breaking the law, he will have to defend himself or go in for it.

If Ekweremandu had been caught in Nigeria, the case would have been buried a long time ago.

Ekweremandu was a Senator for over 2 decades in plum positions... he was in the Senate for HIMSELF only, even his village didn't get any world class hospital. Had he used his influence positively, he wouldn't be in this sordid mess.

Yet some folks like the OP come to defend those that rob them blindly. Mental health should be prioritized in Nigeria....
