If Nnamdi Kanu was going to abandon the Biafran struggle, he would come out and say it. His brother never said so, he said he supports restructuring

However, it is important to note that Nigeria can never be restructured, the North will never allow it in a million years

When you look at the constitution of Nigeria and what must be done to restructure Nigeria, you will see that it is easier to raise a dead man

Nigeria can never be restructured. What must be done is to conduct referendum so that those who wish to continue with Nigeria can do so, while those who wish to have independence can go their way

But anyone who thinks that any good will come from "one Nigeria by force" is only living in a fools paradise
Spoken. Who wants Nigeria restructured? Those not benefitting e.g Others other than North. Will north allow their advantage gone? NO!

Thissystem:
There are strong indications that leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, seems to have abandoned his secession agenda.

In a recent letter conveyed by his brother, Prince Emmanuel after a meeting with the IPOB leader at the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters, Kanu was quoted to have said that he is not opposed to any “genuine restructuring” of Nigeria along the lines of the 1963 Constitution.

Kanu insisted that those opposed to the holistic restructuring of Nigeria should have a change of heart.

Kanu’s letter partly reads:
“We are not averse to the genuine restructuring of the country. We know that the country cannot grow or make progress under the current unworking unitary structure. The facts are clear for all to see.

“Our position remains the same as our submission in the presence of Prof. Ben Nwabueze, and Evangelist Elliot Ugochukwu-Uko on 30th August 2017 at the meeting with the South East Governors in Enugu. We have no reason to add or subtract from our position six years ago.

“We reiterate that we are not opposed to a consensual but wholesome restructuring of the country along the 1963 constitution.

Most nairalanders always post out of ignorance.........go and watch Nnamdi kanu's BBC Igbo interview of circa 2018................there is no difference between his stand in 2018 and 2024.............The interview was conducted in igbo and was subtitled in English.........Summary.....after his release on bail kanu had a meeting with ohaneze and the southeast governors, he was asked to step down his Biafra agitation but he said he would only do that if ohaneze could extract a promise cum agreement from Buhari that a seaport was built or an existing developed into a viable commercial port for the southeast and south south, that an international airport established with viable international flight schedules,secon niger bridge completed and discussion started on a national conference for restructuring..........the southeast governors promised to take his demands to Buhari...........who of course ordered the attack on his home in late 2017........destroying any further talks on his demand! This is exactly what Kanu has reiterated and you are here peddling your vicarious imagination as facts.........I do not know why Nigerians lie a lot!

You make a lot of sense but KANU must pay for his sins. It's too late, He ran away when he was given bail, his tribalism his worse, if not for the resilience of Nigerians, this country will be at war now. What about the officers he ordered his foot soldiers to kill? how many people have been killed by his utterance? What of the innocent children orphaned by the results of his actions and his careless call for the destruction of the state?...I pray he rotten in jail cool
Pay for which sins?

Why hasn't the court made him to pay for sins?

As a matter of fact, it is the Nigerian Govt that recused cour order for not releasing him should pay for any sin.

During python dance that innocent youths were killed by soldiers, who will pay for that one?

May your evil heart be your undoing. As you wish evil unto to others, so shall evil besiege you. May the blood of our innocent people murdered by the terrorist Nigerian police and army continue to call out for justice against Nigeria and evil people like you who support her evil deeds.

So?
Is there no port in the south east? The Onitsha river port is there ....there's no way to have a seaport as there no direct access to sea from soth east
Isn't 2ne Niger bridge completed ?
In the same period...Enugu opened an international airport and Ebonyi began building one.

You are accusing the governors wrongly.

If NK has shut his mouth and kept to his bail conditions he won't be attacked by NA.
He was calling for attacks against NA personnel...... No army in the world will stand by and allow such threats. He became a terrorist and was dealt with like one

Your Nigeria that has been one since the 1970 the war ended has only gotten worse since then. It is today poverty capital of the world, 8th most insecure country on earth and an all round failure

Nigeria is a long failed British colonial contraption and it is time for us to go our different ways. It was a mistake for the British to have ever brought us together
When will you give up on this your skewed, selectively negative interpretation of the Nigerian reality?

You're looking increasingly like a man adrift on a canoe in the middle of an ocean.

The rest of your Igbo brethren are leaving you behind, and embracing the wonderful possibilities of our great nation, while you wallow in this dated rhetoric of ignominy.

Will you ever tire of this?

Your country must come from the democratic consent of other ethnic groups, not "one Nigeria by force"

ENOUGH OF GANGSTERISM, CHARACTERISATION, AGGRANDIZEMENT AND COMPLACENCY.
NIGERIA SHOULD ADOPT FAPRES FOR OUR 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES NOW TO ALLOW PEACE AND LOVE, FAITH AND HOPE TO REIGN SUPREME FOREVER.

Will that change the fact that you will buy Dollar at N1500 to one? Will that change the fact that Nigeria will remain amongst the most insecure countries on earth? Will it change that Nigeria is a country where nothing works?

Wether Nnamdi Kanu comes out or not, the problem of Nigeria which made him popular will still be with us all for generations to come

But Lugard also came and gave you your new language called English, and your new religion called christianity, and the new concept of 'democratic consent' you're brandishing around as if our empire - building ancestors relied on 'consent' to seize the territory of others.

Fact is you are selectively anti-imperialist for selfish ethnic reasons.

If you believe you can succeed with the colonial influences I just mentioned, from religion to the very way you dress, then why negatively single out the political architecture inheritance?

It has nothing to do with your anti-colonialism.

It's because you're a tribalist and a bigot.

And you need to rid yourself of it.

It's an ungodly mindset.

So why do you want to be in the same country with tribalists and bigots? This is all the more reason we should all insist on a referendum abd go our different ways, so what's the problem?

Well, if Kanu is now saying this, then it is a good thing. The whole secession idea is just foolish and impractical at this point.

Nigeria is One, and nobody is going anywhere.

Our task is to devise ways to make the country work for everyone, by hook or by crook.

Where are you running to?

Meanwhile, I wonder what his Prime Minister in Finland thinks about this new ideological direction.

wink

Something tells me he would very angry with this development. Kanu had better watch his back in that prison.
