Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Kanu said many things that were false and dangerous — he threatened national peace with conspiracies like

“Buhari is dead and replaced by Jubril from Sudan.”

Nigeria’s problems are bigger than Nnamdi Kanu. He should remain behind bars.
so what he predicted about Fulani is also false abi. Continue

Don’t give me “assume” this or “assume” that, I’m giving facts. I won’t sit here and trade hearsay with you. LMAO.

So because there are Boko Haram and bandits, we should let Kanu do as he pleases? That argument doesn’t hold water in any court.

It’s like a man caught red‑handed stealing a chicken claiming: “But my neighbor stole a cow and wasn’t caught, so let me go free.” Ridiculous. Accountability isn’t selective.
Because I said assuming it was true. I introduce assumption to it just to flow with you just to let you know that nothing justifies the invasion.
Because I know that the government reason was purely a fabricated lies, just a complete BS.
If you believe that you can believe anything.
Your claimed facts are all lies.

COMRADES, these police sef, wetin be their problem anytime Nigerians want to engage government through protest? They (police) always fear that the protest will lead to change of government
The same people praising protesters today, will accuse government of sending thugs to beat them during the protest.

I will hear see as they broke my head, on Monday evening.

On many issues, I agree with you, but on this one, I am choosing to sit it out. My reason is simple: Nnamdi Kanu’s actions in the Southeast have jeopardized lives and destroyed property, turning entire communities into chaos.

The protests and agitations he spearheaded haven’t produced any tangible or achievable objective, other than normalizing unrest and forcing everyone to tolerate disorder.

He abused everyone indiscriminately, Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Muslims, Christians,Igbos( those that didnt subscribe to his delusions) no one was spared from his provocations. And while calls for his release may appeal to principles of civil liberties, it’s impossible to ignore the human and economic toll his movement has inflicted on the region.


So while I support lawful dissent in general, in this case, the history of destruction makes it hard to stand behind the current protest.

If you doubt listen to how he took a shot at Christians on this Facebook link attached. Nnamdi kanu was out to just cause chaos. The worst move Tinubu can make is to Free Nnamdi Kanu.

did you see nnamdi kanu with gun or cutlass? Why the hate ? Some days ago Nigeria government had peace talk with bandit and terrorist, the bandit and terrorist went there with guns and magazines , it will take a very long time before Nigeria is liberated as long as people like you are still alive.

When Yahaya Bello was allegedly looting Kogi’s coffers, did anyone see him in a ski-mask or waving a gun like a common thief? No, that comparison is irrelevant and baseless.

Nnamdi Kanu has been on camera repeatedly , owning up to rhetoric that urges people to take up arms. I’m not spreading hate; I’m defending safety. Everyone in the Southeast deserves protection, whether they support Kanu or not. He, too, must respect other people’s right to live in peace.

Anyone who actively threatens national peace should face the law. If Kanu refuses to show remorse and change course, he should expect to remain in custody, not as vengeance, but as public safety.

Take up arms to do what ? A lot of prominent politicians and religious leaders have also said people should take up arms and defend themselves, because it's a constitutional right to life.

the only rationale for kanu's incarceration, is the perception he's destroying a British project with words

Kanu is only kept perpetually in detention because he is against the British project
When speech and action cross the line into burning lives, destroying property, and suppressing entire local economies with mandatory “stay‑home” orders, no government can legitimately ignore it, because a government that does nothing is effectively no government at all. Call it a British project, American project, Cambodian project or whatever label people throw around; the core point is procedural: there is a lawful process for change. If I come to your home and start burning your wife’s things, forcing you to stay home and not pursue income on Mondays, and making the neighbourhood unsafe, and you lack the power to stop it, the government has every right, and duty, to intervene on your behalf.

That’s exactly what happened in the Southeast: mass intimidation and enforced shutdowns crippled commerce and endangered citizens. The state’s security apparatus cannot stand aside while one man’s actions wield the force of a militia and shut down daily life from abroad. When violence and extortion replace civil discourse, federal intervention is not only justified, it’s necessary to restore order and protect civilians. If the aim is political legitimacy or self‑determination, pursue it through lawful channels and referendums, not by terrorizing a region and forcing compliance through fear.

Let me school you Mr lecturer.
You can make statements to keep people on the alert and that doesn't mean you were responsible for any action afterwards.

You can threaten someone out of anger and and something unfortunate happens to the person you threatened (not connected to you whatsoever), preliminary investigation could warrant your arrest, but doesn't mean you were responsible and could be proven in a competent court.

I'm sure you were referring to the end sars saga in Lagos influenced by your 'cherry picking' of words; kanu did not order people to burn lives and properties, he only insinuated people should defend themselves from sponsored thugs, whose modus operandi is cause confusion during any peaceful protest.
It is the duty of the police to protect peaceful protesters, but we all saw in the videos and from subsequent protests, how the police watch these thugs destroy properties.

Assuming those thugs were Kanu's men, are you saying they are now working for the Nigerian police?

The more you push your misconception about kanu, the more you indict the state actors

His insinuations caused damage to lives and properties and economies of states.
Thats a punishable act under law.

If he didn't insinuate peaceful protesters shouldn't defend themselves, it won't stop the loss of lives and properties by sponsored thugs. Infact, it would make it worse.

So, his insinuation did not cause damage, but failure of the police to protect lives and properties as they watched by the sidelines.

The more you push, the more you indict your government.

The Federal government has stepped in now and lives and properties are protected. If you cause the same kind of trouble. You will also be remanded and jailed. FYI
