Tinubu is not trying to help Ekweremadu he is just trying to strengthen his political base.

Meanwhile on a serious note how is Tinubu "freeing" Ekweremadu going to improve the lot of an average person in SE?

MrGerald:
Bragging as usual, Igbo is the biggest single ethnic population in naija, if Tinubu get quarter of their numbers is something, just that most of the population don't vote
If he gets none, it won't matter. U guy instead been humble to achieve wat u want, u kept bragging ahead. Bring the Ekweremadu home, is better for him bc he will be treated better

It seems President Tinubu Jagaban is a criminal himself by his action/plans towards Ekweremadu

Because it is politically motivated, Ekweremadu should remain there?
You people are pure evil.
You’ve just proved you don’t understand the argument at all. Nobody said he should remain there — that conclusion exists only in your own mind. What we’re saying is simple: a government can help someone and still be doing it for political gain. Recognising the political motive doesn’t mean rejecting the help; it just means we’re not blind.

The fact that you jumped straight to “evil” shows you don’t have the mental tools to separate analysis from emotion. That’s not my problem — that’s the limitation of your reasoning. If you think pointing out political strategy equals wishing harm on Ekweremadu, then you’re not participating in the conversation; you’re reacting from insecurity, not intelligence.

So let me make it easy for you:
Helping him is good. Pretending the government suddenly found compassion after a decade of silence is naive. Both statements can coexist — but only people who think clearly understand that, I will leave you to determine where you stand, Good day!

Shut up... If he's your father won't you be happyhuh Cho Cho Cho without reading. Person dig boreholes, it is politics, person build road, it is politics... Is not better to be playing politics and doing something? Are they not politicians? You that is not doing your own for politics, go and bring him back home.
Simple diplomacy you don't know but likes to chooke mouth for matters like illiterates.
This is how you form narration and some gullible people will take it, swallow it and spread the ignorance.
Even if you don't like the government, it does not mean you should criticize everything they do. Think before you criticize.
Imagine say you get senator for your family and this kind thing happened to him. Because he's convicted of trying to do organ trafficking, they should not help him.
reasons I will forever be grateful to western world is because nothing emotional about there justice system. So if my father did a wrong thing, i should be jubilating that he evades justice but someone else will offend my family member and I will want the same justice to sentence such person. Is that not hypocrisy?
Re: Ekweremadu: South East Leaders Divided Over Planned Transfer To Nigerian Prison by Moniya4Real(m): 11:10am On Nov 16, 2025
But the offence he was convicted of was committed in the UK and not in Nigeria.






"Earlier, if the government had put in efforts for him as a citizen of this country to compel the British government, there wouldn’t have been any need for the UK government to try him as a senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria when this issue took place. That was negligence on the part of the Nigerian government.”

Hi
Godfullsam:
Godsent lamented why the buhari failed to protect Ekweremadu during his trial for organ trafficking in the UK .


Omoh see entitlement o shocked

So, because he was a serving senator he deserve protect from trial for the crime he committed.

Who will protect the poor guy whose vital organ would have been hervested.

Thank God UK is not Nigeria
My brother that thinking baffles me.
That's why they always says igbo are marginalized

Once he's transferred to Nigeria, he will be living in his house and only doing Prison Camera photo ops for social media
Re: Ekweremadu: South East Leaders Divided Over Planned Transfer To Nigerian Prison by blackboy(m): 11:51am On Nov 16, 2025
I'm not sure this is the correct narrative ooo. Because the same way when Trump said he was going to get involved in the fight against bandits in Nigeria it was said in Nigeria that he planned an invasion. And that has been the narrative all over.
Now the UK's prisons are full and what I know is there is early release for many and any foreign prison instead of being released in the UK will be deported.
Politicians want to use Ekweremadu to score points. He is not being sent to Nigeria to complete his sentence ooo.

The truth is that you have been so brainwashed that anything Tinubu does is politically motivated and you don't know how messed up you've become. The whole SE queue behind Peter Obi in the last election yet Tinubu won, why do you now think he needs Ekweremadu and south East to retain power? You people will make Tinubu to stop doing anything for SE. Maybe that's why he doesn't want to release Nnamdi Kanu, so that you won't say it's politically motivated.

Some people are funny. Politics as in how. Can tinubu use igbo population to win anything.?
They are trying to help the man and nothing else jor.
Help? Lols, is Ekweremmadu the only Nigerian convicted and serving in a correctional center at UK?
What happened other Nigerians therehuh
Why is it only Ekweremmadu??
There must be a reason which is political.
Nothing comes for free.... especially such things when the government is interested.

No, Tinubu want him to come and experience Prison cells that ordinary Nigerians experience while he was in Senate refusing to appropriate funds for the rehab and building new prisons worthy of human. Let's give politicians a taste of their own medicine
Re: Ekweremadu: South East Leaders Divided Over Planned Transfer To Nigerian Prison by CJStarz: 12:40pm On Nov 16, 2025
He was only a father who tried to save his dying daughter but went through it the wrong way. A man who was afraid of losing his daughter but surprisingly she still lives.
He was only being a father....

Who knows what's up with the boy whose kidney they wanted to harvest?

Sadly, my brother, except for a miracle, I don't see hope for this country.
Bad thing is, when evil men grab power and become the brain behind a political system, it takes only a supernatural intervention to break that yoke.

These people are really something else. No tact, no diplomacy. Everything is nzogbu nzogbu.
They don't mind burning down the house if it's going to mean their neighbour will not have a shed to hide when it rains.
Igbos tell you say Ekweremadu na their problem? Did they not beat him sometime, overseas? Let your president stop the killings in his country first. Let him do igbos no favours please.

Nnamdi Kanu is there cos UK collected stuff from Nigeria for not to come fight for it's citizen..

What has your baba done for God in Lagos for the past 26 years of his lootocracy master plan?

Increased tax burden on 20 million Lagosians to brag about growing the budget to N3.4 trillion from N42 billion a quarter of a century ago? Meanwhile, he has failed to deliver ordinary water to Lagos households.

Is this what Tinubu is doing for God huh

At least he provided a haven for your baba to run to when being deprived of going out on Mondays in the East.
