‘Nnamdi Kanu Not Bigger Than Trump’- Ogunlewe Asks IPOB Leader To Face Trial by bennybuhari(op): 4:16pm On May 27, 2024
Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe, a former Minister of Works and Housing has urged the detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to get a good lawyer and face his trial.

Kanu, who is facing a seven- count treasonable felony charge preffered against him by the federal government, last week, faulted his trial as illegal, arguing that that going by the provision of the Terrorism (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022, he could no longer be tried by any court in Nigeria.

However, speaking with TheScrutinyNG, Ogunlewe said Kanu’s legal team should avoid using delay tactics and allow the trial to proceed.

He also urged the IPOB leader to take a cue from Donald Trump, former US President who is currently on trial in New York.

“What is the problem? Let Nnamdi Kanu go through the trial. If he is not guilty, he will be released. He said no court in Nigeria can try him; that is his own view. Let the federal government start the trial. When the judge sees that there is no case there, they will do a no-case submission, and he will be released. Why are they afraid of trial and keep begging for his release?”.

“ If they had started the trial all this while, it would have been concluded by now. Instead of going through trial, they wanted to finish everything on technicalities. What is the big deal about trial? Can’t they see what former US President, Donald Trump is going through? Is Nnamdi Kanu bigger than Trump?”.

Ogunlewe said it is wrong for anyone to presume that Kanu will not get justice, adding that it is the court that will determine whether an accused is guilty or not.

“ As far as I am concerned, Kanu is the one delaying the trial through all these tactics and saying that no court in Nigeria can try him. Let the trial start. The prosecutor will present his evidence and Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer will present his own too. The judge will look at everything and if there is nothing there, they will throw it away and he will regain his freedom”.

“His lawyers are the ones causing the problem by trying to frustrate the trial on grounds of technicalities. How can they presume that he cannot get justice and he will be found guilty? Kanu should get a good defence lawyer who will present his case”.

“How many people have gone through treasonable felony case in Nigeria? Some have been released while others were jailed. Let Nnamdi Kanu go through the trial. Nothing will happen. If he is not guilty, he will be freed”.

Some one should tell ogunlewe that he's mentally unstable, exhausted and deranged.

Sometimes i wonder the kind of people i share the same country with.

Court of competent jurisdiction has discharged and acquitted this man but take a look at what a distinguished senator that claim to be educated yapping rubbish in disguise.

Soyinka has spoken
Ogunleye is speaking
FFK has spoken
Agbado supporters are still speaking
Nairaland zonBs are still talking
Sam Omatseye is still speaking
TVC is still speaking
Nation Newspaper is still speaking
South west is still speaking..


All are either using Nnamdi Kanu to gain clout or sound politically correct.

NONE OF THEM IS TALKING about Sunday IGBOHO, who was actually charged with the 'so called" same crime

Any IGBO person, that doesn't see the hypocrisy and wickedness in the same people that preach against BIAFRA and still tell IGBOs that they can't be President. IS A BIG FOOL.

The greatest fear of SW people is BIAFRA, because when it happens they can't break freely from the NORTH

All IGBOs should work for BIAFRA. SW will disintegrate and become a gathering of scavengers. Na Horror movie in the making.

BIAFRA is the new frontier and that is why Envious and jealous Yoruba wish they have someone like Nnamdi Kanu.

IGBOs have shown that they are SOLID.

BIAFRA will be beautiful obviously...

Thank You.

The trial you guys never wanted to start… you went to his house to assassinate him. He ran away from your assassins and you said he jumped bail.

what do you expect from Adeseye Ogunlewe a yoruba muslim man.


What did he say different from what Miscreants from that side always say here.




The same law freed Kanu but you Nigerian government refused to obey.


They always think they are wise but only 1% from there are near to wisdom.

How many years now since he has been incarcerated? Maybe 2 I guess? I noticed from his previous outburst at court that he’s at the 4th stage of grief, man might soon bite his own tongue to death.

Let him Namidi Kanun continue to delay his trial with the likes of his previous shenanigans at the last hearing or the plenty technicality lawsuits that he and his legal team continues to file against the Federal government. It changes nothing, he will go through this sovereign nation judicial system and be judged accordingly.

Those people from that region mostly have a negetive IQ, yet in there delusion are thinking the are the smartest.. How can a reasonable somebody compare Nnamdi Kanu's case and Donald Trump's case looking at the circumstances surrounding their cases

Don't mind their irrational behavior. Awolowo will be trembling in his grave for his wasted effort in educating his kinsmen.

Why haven't them closed to years now he was kidnapped from Kenya?
Re: ‘Nnamdi Kanu Not Bigger Than Trump’- Ogunlewe Asks IPOB Leader To Face Trial by helinues: 8:56am On May 28, 2024
When Kanu was arrested in Kenya, the first thing that came to my mind when I read that news was , he won't be jailed but would be frustrated with court adjournment.

How many years passed now?
