That boat has since sailed the day Kanu was arraigned before a Federal High Court.

The same people that claim that the Nigerian govt through influence of the executive arm are disobeying court orders are now seeking for the same executive to disregard the same ongoing judicious process and by fiat, order the release of Kanu.

I want to use this medium to advice President Tinubu that the demand from the SE political class for Kanu's release and if granted by his office , is to pitch Tinubu against the north.

Releasing Kanu will not and will never see the SE voting Tinubu in 2027 rather they (SE) will align with the disgruntled north to vote him out.

Tinubu should allow the judiciary that has been invoked to continue hearing the matter brought before it by the Federal Govt of Nigeria Vs Nnamdi Kanu.

The sudden demand by SE politicians and elites for Kanu's release (which they never did under Buhari) is to pitch Tinubu against the North against 2027 re-election.

Tinubu, should rather continue with his similar hard line reformist style on the economy by ensuring that the judiciary process already invoked continues till the end.

When the case before Kanu is finally decided with an inevitable guilty verdict, let them beg Tinubu for a pardon .

What I know is that once Tinubu secures a second Term in office post 2027, you will see how the same people rallying for Kanu's release will abandon him and begin to lobby instead for a VP position in the APC to replace Tinubu's govt in 2031.

this is Nigeria sir

You could be too daft to understand the authority of the president. Even if Kanu is a convict, Mr. President has the power to grant him pardon, now all that’s needed is package him back in a jet and fly him back to where the Dullard kidnapped him from. Maybe use the right approach to extradite him if they have a case against him then go on a proactive and transparent trial.

A pardon can only be granted where a conviction has already been secured and the beneficiary of such clemency applies formally to the President for one. A pardon comes with an admission of guilt by that who is expected to receive such clemency.

Executive pardon can only be invoked and applied to someone who has been convicted of a crime.

Kanu has not been convicted by the court as his criminal trial is still ongoing and same Kanu has pled not guilty to all charges.

Do you expect the president to grant a pardon to someone who has yet to be convicted of a crime ?

Finally, you are all just grasping at straws with the technical ruling that determined Kanu's reparation back to Nigeria as not following due process.

And for your info, a Supreme Court judgement has already set aside the lower court ruling and has given the green light for Kanu's trial to continue.

Even if the FG wants to follow what you suggested by returning Kanu to Kenya, they can easily rearrest him on Kenyan soil without leaving the airport in Nairobi by simply ensuring that Kenyan officials arrest Kanu once he lands in Nairobi and hand him over to the Nigerian team. The time it will take the Nigerian team to refuel and file a flight plan back to Abuja and sort out all other diplomatic documents , Kanu will be bundled back into the jet and be in Abuja within 8hrs.

You have been issuing all manner of threats against Nigeria and Nigerians over Kanu's detention and trial but all the violence and killings are limited to your SE with majority of those killed in the name of releasing Kanu being your own people.

Tell us how you will go about burning the entire Nigeria down because of Kanu ?

Nothing concern Tinubu concern Kanu,they know who got him arrested and they should go and beg him in his daura village for kanu's release.

😆 🤣 😂 Lol.....
The myriad of evidence against Kanu make a guilty verdict a fiat accompli . There is no escaping a guilty verdict if this trial proceeds. Kanu knows this....the Eastern governors know this.....Abaribe knows this...even the charge and bail lawyer Ejimakor knows this.....This is why they keep grand standing and applying every legal shenanigans and playing to the gallery to prevent the trial going ahead because there can only be ONE verdict.....GUILTY!!
Kanu certainly needs a better lawyer than he currently has if he hopes to escape the conundrum he has put himself......

I’m telling you the worst case, Kanu has not even been convicted that’s what I’m trying to say, he’s technically kidnapped so let him be returned. The president can do that so even if he’s convicted the president has pardon at his disposal. In all situation regarding Kanu, the president of the federal republic has every capacity to free him

Talk about throwing stones in a glass house. For Tinubu to pardon Kanu in your scenario, your messiah has to actually be convicted first! Right now he is still on trial, so there is nothing to pardon. The real reason why Kanu is stuck behind jail bars is because he is a known flight risk ineligible for bail, after he fled the last time it was granted to him.

Even if Tinubu were secretly an IPOB devotee, there is absolutely nothing he could legally do to spring Kanu from jail until the trial process is complete.

The supreme court of the land has okayed the trial to go on and President Tinubu will not interfere with an ongoing court case.

Can you show us the constitutional clause that grants the President the powers to disrupt an ongoing court process ?


Try your best to get that fraud Obi to be President so he can release and pardon Kanu .

Kanu's current travails is of no importance to Nigeria's prosperity. And releasing him will add no value to Tinubu's presidency. Let's allow judiciary to do their work.

Whether the president releases kanu or not, majority of Igbo people will still vote massively against Tinubu. And it will also affect his chances in the north. I therefore agree 💯 with the assertion of the op on this statement below: 👇👇👇

...the demand from the SE political class for Kanu's release and if granted by his office , is to pitch Tinubu against the north.

AlexBells:
You are changing the topic like the FO0l you are appearing like. I have told you want I have told you that if the president wants Kanu out today it will happens and you have validated my statement by asserting that perhaps Obi was is the president that he could have granted Kanu pardon so there’s no point for argument here

Show us where in the constitution the president is granted powers to interfere in an ongoing court case ?

Also, you are the fools demanding that Tinubu interfere with a criminal prosecution his government inherited.

Tinubu will not interfere with the criminal case because all criminal allegations Kanu is being prosecuted for have been gathered by the security agencies and presented to the AGF who has seen reason for Kanu's trial in court.

Take your matter to the AGF and minister of justice and not Tinubu because the case is being tried on behalf of the federal govt by the office of the AGF.

Yes Tinubu inherited a Nigeria which had a terrorist on trial and Tinubu will ensure the Federal Govt Vs Nnamdi Kanu case continues till there is a conviction.

If you don't like it, then go and kill your neighbour in Alaigbo.

Am I arguing whether why Terrorist is on trial or something that tinubu has the power to free Kanu if he wanted? If due process is followed does Buhari have the right to take Kanu from Kenya? We are talking about power but as an idi0t you are stuck on the process why didn’t Buhari use the right process to get Kanu back?

And I have asked you severally to back your claim with constitutional provisions that grants Tinubu the powers to interfere and release any criminal standing trial before a court.

You are talking about Kanus case when Kanu has no constitutional case. How can you base case on crime? Extradite him properly and let him face the law. The president owe him a return to wherever the one taht handed over picked him up from that’s where the law stands you don’t come to equity with dirty hands and please I’m busy at the moment

Kenya where the rendition occured isn't complaining.

The UK that Kanu is a citizen of isn't complaining.


Besides, Kanu isn't in court to battle constitutional law but to face allegations of treasonable felony - a criminal act .

Kanu's legal team has tried all means to delay the court sitting by making his arrest and arraignment a breach on his own constitutional rights.

What you fail to understand is that whatever means the FG used to carry out his rendition is not binding on the constitution as the rendition was carried out in another country where Nigeria's laws do not apply.

The Supreme Court has ruled on this clearly that no matter how Kanu was brought back to face justice as a fugitive of the court is null and void because the Nigerian constitution holds no water in far away Kenya.

Lastly, the only people Kanu should have approached would have been the Kenyan govt to take Nigeria to the ICJ for breaching it's sovereignty but those ones are not complaining . Even the UK which ought to have demanded that Nigerian govt hand over their citizen who was abducted in a third country are not bothered.

Buhari contracted the Israeli Mossad to abduct and transport Umaru Dikko back to Nigeria from the UK.

The mission failed and 3 Mossad operatives were arrested and tried and sentenced to varying prison terms.

The British govt also took action against the Nigerian military govt for violating it's Sovereignty and filed an official complaints through her ambassador to Nigeria.


Why has the Kenyan govt not even uttered a single complaint to the Nigerian govt acting with impunity on Kenyan soil ?

You should rather go and hold the Kenyan govt who turned a blind eye to Kanu being abducted and transported as diplomatic cargo back to Nigeria.


You should also ask His Majesty's Govt why they are not doing anything to secure the release of their citizen kidnapped by the Nigerian govt.

Do you know how you sound, idiotic. So UK sovereignty was violated and there was consequences. I’m not even surprised Buhari came from a sects notorious for kidnapping. What happens to human rights let’s say that Kenya is an accomplice or doesn’t have the power to respond accordingly. It is wrong and it is wrong
