None of these pictures show that he ever represented Nigeria at any event. It is a peddled lie peddled for too long until proven otherwise.

I know people who have represented Nigeria, they dorn the national jerseys at these events.


Medal returned to who? Which medal? Which competition and where's the picture of him in Nigerian jersey, competition or him receiving medal for Nigeria? Who are his colleagues?

I read somewhere that he only vowed to return the purported medal and yet to do so but here you are claiming that he returned it? So who is lying now?

I remember how in the past, he used to be referred to as a lawyer and military officer. He is none of the two. Where is the medal and in what competition?

He didn’t represent Nigeria in Athletics anywhere. It is a lie that has been peddled for too long. If he represented Nigeria at any competition, he would have posted the picture all over the internet. I hope you remember the lie in the past that his co-traveller graduated from UNN until it turned out a lie.
Uhmm another angle. Lies everywhere

The reason why Nigeria is not likely to ever be a peaceful country is that many of those who populate it will never ask themselves why Ekpa went from winning for Nigeria, to fighting and hating Nigeria?

Why did he turn his back on Nigeria? The reason is why many more in the future will still turn their backs on Nigeria, and Nigeria will be fighting

You dont get peace by shooting and fighting, you get peace listening and understanding
Abeg. Ekpa is a criminal and a murderer. There is no justification for his crimes against the old, poor, helpless he instigated, facilitated and funded their massacre. It will never be well with him. He will die a terrible death. And all those his murderous boys will all pay with their lives.

You post crap here to support him definitely because you never lost anyone to his gangs of killers. He didn't fight against Nigeria, he exploited an opportunity to enshrine unchecked killing and thieving in the south east. That's not what Ghandi, Martin Luther King, or Mandela did.

From hero to enemy of the state

What a fall!
May we never experience this in life
Re: Throwback Pictures Of Simon Ekpa When He Won Silver Medal For Nigeria by esnbrutality: 10:37pm On Sep 01, 2025
Ghandi, Martin Luther King, or Mandela even Kenyatta where all called terrorist.

Even MKO ABIOLA that was voted by NIGERIANs was a known coup plotter

BUHARI, Muritala, were coup plotters and killers, but you named monuments after them.


So rest with your lamentations.

Something is Seriously 😳 Wrong!

So based on your logic .

Sam Ekpa was definitely RIGHT in fighting the compromised security architecture.

Anyway, as a Yoruba man that is passionate about NIGERIA.

What have you said about communities in Katsina that are signing peace deals with bandits?

What have you said about the IDP camps in OGUN caused by Fulani herdsmen

What have you said about the JIHADIST movement from Kwara axis coming down to SW States.

Why are you NOT trying to save your region from captivity? Or the Kwara conquest spreading down the whole of the SW isn't disturbing you?

If people are trying to protect themselves from invaders, don't you think is best you replicate what they are doing to preserve your own region? Or have you been defeated already in the spirit?

Don't try to pull people that want to defend their land..if you have decided yours is not worth defending.

Nobody ever got peace by listening and understanding bcoz those who you’re trying to listen and understand already knows everything and not looking to be understood

Very unfortunate he lost his way due to the maladministration going on in Nigeria..

Read history and stop believing what your bias appreciates.

They were called enemies of the state..and even Terrorists.

Peace is achieved through strength and brute force. There is NO middle ground for complacency.

Simon Ekpa did great things for Nigeria.
But Nigeria abandoned him.
He had no qualms abandoning Nigeria.
Well, wherever he is, he should remember that a man is not dead until he jettisons his spirit.
Now that he is down, he is not yet out.
He should work hard, because a brighter day is coming.

He was recruited by zoo government to destroy Mazi Nnamdi kanu and ipob.
Then why didn't he expose the "zoo government" conspirators when he saw that they were lobbying the Finnish authorities to have him arrested?

Simon ekpa never fought against zoo government.

The criminal was simple executing contract he have with zoo which is to infiltrate Ipob and destroy it from inside.



Thank God he failed after boosting to be the end of ipob.
Calling your country a zoo is very much referring to yourself as monkey..

I always thought that you are intelligent but sometimes I wonder the kind of argument you make on a public forum. Have you made a thorough research about the claims you are debunking? Simon won silver medals for Nigeria. He is a lawyer and politician.

I do not like his style and I support whatever justice he is facing but let truth be told.

To be honest, you have a point with this one

My take is that if those terrorists can be walking freely, then they have no reason holding Nnamdi Kanu

Simon Ekpa was arrested by Finnish government not Nigeria

But for the way the handle terrorists in the north, on that note. I’d say free nnamdi kanu
