Lonestar124:
For the unity of the nation, the court should have pardon him for the last time

if after all the attrocities he has committed many Ibos still believe he's innocent then it will b d most dangerous thing to release him cos his followers will get stronger n believe nothing else will happen after everything.


That was same thing USA did to Osama bin Laden, they even made sure he was buried in d sea so his people won't turn his graveside to tourist attraction.

Kukutente23:
I totally agree with this
I've always said Nnamdi Kanu even if given Biafra today has no idea what to do with it
He seemed more like a zealot than a realist or pragmatist that he was posing
His rhetoric was truly alarming and he deserved his punishment but I don't think he qualifies as a terrorist. Probably an irredentist or dissident or an inciter of violence or an ethnic supremacist. But putting him in same bed with the likes of Shekau or Bin Laden in my opinion is killing a fly with a sledgehammer

Osama killed n brainwashed people to destroy n never felt sorry till his end

Shekau killed and brainwashed people to kill n never felt sorry till his end

Nnamdi kanu killed n brainwashed people to kill n even inside d court room he still cursed the judge and u believe he's different from the first 2 listed.

How is kanu different from Osama n shekau?

They are all agents of death, nobody prays to fall in their path when they held power

mrvitalis:
Did kalu ever tell you he had intentions of ruling Biafra?

Did IPOB ever requeste for Biafra?

His rhetoric was alarming? Happy that all the recording are online

Future generations would listen and judge for themselves

With people like this, gidgiddy n many die hard brainwashed nnamdi kanu followers offline....


Do u still believe he deserves pardon?

Do u think these ones will ever agree nnamdi kanu is wrong?

Before someone can change his ways, he has to first agree he's been doing it wrong.


If kanu n his supporters still believe they are right then on what basis will he b pardoned?

So wanting Biafra a country of our won is now a crime?

Burob:
A convicted terrorist has no negotiation powers.

For every action there is an equal & opposite reaction, who will pardon such an arrogant person with no remorse, did u see his behavior in court yesterday?

The man needs to be in a cage in the zoo.

God bless u

How do u pardon someone who never felt remorse about his actions but still curse the judge inside d court room?

These people really don't understand the conditions attached to pardoning someone

Streetinvestor2:
Why don't u tell us what u and your family has done just for ur village.
Then I can tell u what he has done for igbo. Standing alone for biafran struggle is a big doing

someone asked u a reasonable question n u took it as a direct attack to him n went personal.

Tell us what kanu did good for d Ibos

nobody said that is a crime, don't b an hypocrite n don't b clever by half.


What we are saying is that telling his supporters to kill security operatives n anyone that goes out on Monday is a crime.

Isn't that a crime in your dictionary?

Hankim:
He should be pardoned for the sake of his innocent kids, I can’t even imagine a life without my little kids because they need me most now at this stage of their life.

Na so we advised Ekpa on this forum and his response is always… what you don’t know is bigger than you. If anybody wants to fight government then brain must be applied to avoid falling into their traps

so u are saying if anyone kills your children or wife, he should b pardoned n let go for the sake of his innocent kids too?

So once anyone have children they can do bad n beg for pardon for d sake of their innocent child?

When did he say that and what lead to it

Or should we ignore what lead to it?

Was it not same military and police killing of innocent Igbos and same Fulani terror groups being protected by police and army that lead to it?


One day Fulani would invade your village protected by army let's see if you won't make that same statement again

Nnamdipapa:
A law court in Finland sentenced Nnamdi Kanu's protege and second in command to six years in prison for inciting violence in Nigeria.

Finland did not experience the terror Simon Ekpa unleashed upon the people of South Eastern Region of Nigeria. Yet, Finland found Ekpa culpable of fermenting trouble elsewhere from the confines of their Finnish territory. And for this, he was punished.

Please note, Nigeria is yet to prosecute and punish Simon. I believe after serving out his tenure he will be deported back to Nigeria to answer for his crimes.

So, if Ekpa the servant of Nnamdi Kanu is already in prison in Finland, tell me, in what chapter of justice should the master of Ekpa be allowed to go free in the actual land where the wounds of these men's terrorism are glaringly fresh and crying for justice?

ekpa wont be extradited

#JudgementDay #NnamdiKanu #November20th2025

I am from Ihiala Town of Ihiala LGA in Anambra State and for 5 years I have had cousins kidnapped, friends kidnapped, relatives terrorised and thankfully, I have not lost anyone that I know of from the carnage wrought by Nnamdi Kanu or his disciples.

But people I do not know have lost fathers, mothers, siblings, relatives to the carnage Nnamdi Kanu unleashed on Igbo land for the past 5 years now.

Before Nnamdi Kanu, South East was the most safest region in the Country. We in Ihiala LGA could be in Total by 10 PM and Owerri by 12 midnight and back to Ihiala before 1:30 AM, all without any single issue.

Before Nnamdi Kanu, the length of the Ihiala, Uli and Imo State axis of the Onitsha-Owerri expressway were open with little to no army checkpoints.

Before Nnamdi Kanu there were many route for travellers to Imo State and beyond either from Lilu, Orsumoghu, Azia axis of Ihiala LGA. I know all those places. I did not experience ANY single security incident all through my years of travelling from Calabar to Onitsha and Igbariam and back. I lived in Anambra and Calabar. I transversed all over Anambra State. I have gotten into Onitsha by 9 PM. I have arrived Ihiala Juniorate by 11 PM. I have been in Total in the midnight shooting knockouts during crossover night. I am an Ihiala boy, so that is my area. I know what Nnamdi Kanu took away from my people.

The entire Ihiala Town, Lilu, Azia, etc were places we went to eat with cousins in the evening. On days I spend my University holiday in Ihaila, we would ride bike from my village to Ata Mmiri of Umuezeawala to go swim. Nothing happened to us, no police, no army, no UGM. Nothing!

Nnamdi Kanu happened and took away all these things from us in Ihiala Town. Today we have army stationed in Total, we have army in Abbot Boys, when you cross before Imo State you’ll come down from your vehicle and put your hands on your head. All because of Nnamdi Kanu.

One day, on my way back from Calabar through Orsu - a mistake on the drivers part - we ran into soldiers. Orsu, a once bubbly town was dead! Like total dead. The entire town was eerily quiet. That was the legacy of Nnamdi Kanu.

For the first time since 1967-1970, we the Igbos lost more people to violence than ever before. We have had young people killed enmass, we have had parents butchered, children kidnapped, priests and reverends murdered, we have had a lot. Igbo kills Igbo; the legacy of Nnamdi Kanu.

No region of Igbo land suffered from Nnamdi Kanu as much as my people in Ihiala. Nnamdi Kanu inspired organisations targeted my people and disrupted our lives and economy. People stopped coming home. People stayed away from Ihiala. It was more of a risk to go to Ihiala than to go to Iran. Since 2020 I have gone home just once. Before Nnamdi Kanu I went to Ihiala every Christmas since 2012 till 2019, I never missed one Christmas celebration. Since Nnamdi Kanu happened I have missed about four Christmases in Ihiala.

Because of Nnamdi Kanu Igbos and Igboland came to know what Unknown Gun Men means. We have had ESN. We have had various and various nonstate actors running around Igboland because of Nnamdi Kanu.

Left to us in Ihiala, Nnamdi Kanu should never be released. He deserves to rot until he leaves this Earth. Anyone or any organisation influenced or affiliated with Nnamdi Kanu should be treated with the high handedness of the Nigerian security apparatus.

Our town is recovering just in time for Nnamdi Kanu’s jail sentence. Happy for us.

My Take on the Nnamdi Kanu Debate

I’ve been watching the arguments online, and I honestly don’t understand the logic some people are using.

Many are saying Nnamdi Kanu should not be punished because “terrorists in the North are roaming free.”
But let’s reason as adults:

If insecurity is destroying parts of the North,
should the same thing be allowed to destroy the East too?

Does it make sense to say,
“Since the North is suffering, let the East also suffer”?
How does that help the Igbo people or anyone living there?

Comparing Sunday Igboho to Nnamdi Kanu is misleading

People keep mentioning Sunday Igboho, but the situations are not the same.

Show us:

Where Sunday Igboho told his followers to harm other Yorubas who didn’t support him.

Where he declared a sit-at-home that crippled the economy of the South-West.

Where he ordered attacks on security officers or civilians.

He never did that.

Meanwhile, Nnamdi Kanu was granted bail, even under Buhari’s government—something many people forget.
Instead of calming down, he created ESN, gave dangerous orders, and escalated tensions.

About Sheikh Gumi

People also mention Gumi, but again, show us where he openly told bandits to attack innocent Nigerians.
He may sympathize with them (which is wrong), but sympathy is not the same as issuing violent instructions or enforcing terror on communities.

The South-East Before and After

Anyone who is truthful knows that:
Before Nnamdi Kanu jumped bail, the South-East was far more peaceful.
Afterwards, everything changed — fear, sit-at-home, killings, forced obedience, insecurity.

These things did not fall from the sky.

Families in the South-East have suffered.
Students, traders, workers, and even ordinary people living their daily lives have been affected.

There are heartbreaking stories — like the young Igbo lady who joined the Nigerian Army, came home to greet her parents after passing out parade, and she and her parents were killed.
Why?
Simply because she served her country.

Or the people attacked for selling small items outside their homes on a day someone declared “sit-at-home.”
These are real victims.

These things cannot be ignored.

Supporting a leader does not mean supporting everything they do

If people in the East want a better leader, they deserve one — but not one whose actions bring fear, division, and unnecessary bloodshed.

Justice must be equal for all Nigerians — North, South, East, West.
If bandits in the North are not being held accountable, that should not be the reason to excuse wrong acts in the East.

Two wrongs do not make a right.
A wound in one region does not justify creating another wound in a different region.

Final Thought

If we truly love our people,
we must condemn anything that brings them pain —
no matter who is responsible for it.

Peace and justice should be for everyone,
not only when it suits us.

This is how your type on these boards claimed Simon Ekpa would not be tried or jailed for terrorism because he is a Finnish soldier and a Finnish citizen. We all know how that ended.

Your type on these boards claimed that Justice Omotosho could not jail Nnamdi Kanu. That if he did such there would be crisis and chaos. Right now Kanu is a convicted terrorist locked up for life in a Sokoto maximum prison cell with no access to any electronic or communication devices.

There are so many keyboard warriors on Nairaland.com. All mouth and no single action. I don't take people like you serious. In fact it was a mistake to engage you.
Have a nice day.

Post Nnamdi kanu's conviction: Ojukwu revisited.

The newly convicted international terror!st Nnamdi kanu's life imprisonment is exactly what Ojukwu should have at least gotten for his own crimes against Ndigbo.

He sowed the seeds of hatred which Nnamdi Kanu watered. Yet he was in Ivory Coast demanding to be allowed back into Nigeria 🇳🇬, after leading generations of Ndigbo into a disastrous war which he knew he wasn't going to win.

The ignorant generations built him up as a hero. Thankfully enough, his 21st century successor didn't get away with his, and that's not because our politicians, the religious leaders and the so called big men fought to bring him to justice.

It was just ordinary people. Family men and women, the downtrodden, the hapless victims and their relatives who came together and never gave up.

May the souls of the departed find peace and may oir children learn from our mistakes.

When South East communities were burning under IPOB/ESN occupation, many of you acting shocked today behaved like you were blind back then.

You saw the smoke, smelled the fire, and still insisted nothing was happening.

You helped rebrand crimes as “Unknown Gu(n)men,” even when those of us with common sense told you these men were very known.

Kanu went on radio and called them angels, and you clapped. He praised the Imo jailbreak with his full chest, gave them frame-by-frame guides on air on how to break into more prisons. When a few of us shouted that this was a disaster in the making, you blocked your ears and formed Stevie Wonder.

They went from Umu Chineke to Umuoma Kanu, and somehow you still pretended this was a liberation army and not a terr0r syndicate.

ESN commanders were not patriots or freedom fighters. They were armed robbers, pris0n escapees, failed cvltists, and the worst products of society.

But you, with your “I’m educated, I’m enlightened” pride, didn’t stop to ask what happens when a pr0scribed group recruits criminals, arms them, and unleashes them on communities.

You honestly believed people who burnt police stations, destroyed prisons, chased out security, and hijacked vigilante weapons were going to protect you?
Protect who?
How?

You didn’t question anything. You didn’t observe. You didn’t analyse. You were carried away by chants of ideology and hashtags, shouting about imaginary freedom while the people at home were being held hostage by your so-called liberators.

When ESN and Umuoma entered communities, life collapsed overnight. When they took over the South-East, life collapsed every Monday.

The same region shouting about marginalization was deliberately marginalizing itself every Monday, destroying its economy to “prove a point” to the federal government. Self-inflicted injury. Own goal.

These men weren’t hiding their atrocities, they were uploading the videos themselves.

Execu*tions. T0rture. Ext0rtion. Burning homes. Instilling fear. And still, you pretended not to see it. Yet your families lived there. Your children were there. Your ageing parents were there. In the South East.

Who did you think was enforcing the “Sit-at-Home”?
And what exactly about “liberation” requires you to obey or die?
Don’t look away now. Answer.

If you cover spilled milk with newspaper instead of cleaning it, the smell will remind you. And when the newspaper rots, the mess underneath will ch0ke you. That is exactly what happened in the South East. You covered evil with "freedom" propaganda, and now the consequences are rotting openly.

You come online today yapping about “justice.”
What justice did the victims of Kanu’s orders get?
What justice was given to their families?
Did their lives not matter because they didn’t fit your political fantasy?
Did their loved ones not cry?
Did their children not bleed?

And then there are the ones proudly saying, “Kanu opened my eyes, he taught me history.”

Oh, the irony.
The same man who manipulated you with half-truths and emotional blackmail somehow became your professor of history.

His savior complex fed directly on your gullibility. You were chosen deliberately because you were the easiest to deceive. You were the experiment that proved that those who shout “we are wiser than ndi mba ozo” actually lacked the very critical thinking they bragged about.

He played on your anger, your insecurity, your identity crisis, and your desperation to belong. And you swallowed it whole. No questions. No logic. Just blind loyalty. Even when the truth sla*pped you, you didn’t dare turn back. And you called those who did , "sabo".

The cold, brutal truth is, you were not enlightened. you were exploited.
You were not freedom fighters. You were useful tools.
And the South East became the sacrificial lamb for his delusion of grandeur.

Biafra has really became the opium of the masses.

Today, the average IPOB apologist would rather quote Kanu than use the internet to research basic facts.

How else do you explain people who watched a five-hour judgment, saw cold hard evidence, heard a defendant refuse to explain or defend anything, and still came out convinced he was wise or for their interests? That judgment covered only a fraction of the actual cri*mes. You watched all of it. And if you honestly didn't, you do not have to believe me. You can go to Orsu, Orlu, Lilu, Achala, Mbosi, Ihiala, Mbaitolu etc and verify with your own eyes or ask people from those communities ESN invaded.

Truly, for many of you, the lights are on but no one is at home.

And that’s the part you can’t admit, because admitting it means acknowledging the blo0d that flowed while you chanted.

But denial doesn’t wash bl0od away. It doesn't change the facts. It only stains your conscience deeper.
