Nnamdi Kanu Finally Hits Wikipedia-no Thanks To PMB by ajoguegbe(m): 5:48am On Dec 06, 2015 |
Written by Oguta Jude Digital Media Strategist based in Lagos For years Nnamdi Kanu operated his Radio Biafra and many Nigerians including Igbos knew neither about the station nor about the man. Radio Biafra I was told operated during Obasanjo, Yaradua and Jonathans era and all of them ignored him. As an Igbo man, I never heard of Nnamdi Kanu until President Mohamed Buhari came into power in 2015 and the media reported on Ju14 July 2015 the radio station had been jammed because it did not have a broadcast license from the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission. However, the radio station in a swift reaction labelled such claims as "lies" and went on to release its new frequency details to the public. I was shocked that in spite of my constant online presence, I never heard about him. I went online to search for Nnamdi Kanu on Google and only Nigerian news sites were reporting and what they were all saying was the FGs claim that they have jammed the station. I checked their radibiafra.co Alexa status and discovered it was not ranking anywhere. Meaning nobody/few people visit the site Today December 5, 2015, I just checked and Nnamdi Kanu is already on Wikipaedia (check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nnamdi_Kanu). I checked the radios Alexa status and discovered it was not just ranking 1,959 in Nigeria but was ranking also in 4 other countries Nigeria 1,959 United Kingdom 32,562 Germany 42,808 Denmark 8,423 United States 1,447,608 It is sad to know that only few Nigeria sites like Nairaland rank in other countries(Nairaland ranks in only 4 other countries, Linda Ikeji ranks only in Nigeria). Anyone who understand online ranking metrics will understand the implication of these figures especially for a domain that was registered in 2013. My take is that Radio Biafra existed but was not getting media attention until that announcement. It was as if Kanu discovered that annoucement worked to his favour and decided to take it a step further. Today both online and offline is buzzing with Nnamdi Kanu and Radio Biafra What do you as Nigerians think- Was the announcement and consequent arrest a good move by the FG?

**grins** Kanu will be smiling right now at the tactless almajiris. Buhari should please hang him if he has the balls. So that we can answer his what-will-you-do questions. Dr Iroanya, Mazi Mefor and others are even more radical. The future is going to be interesting. **grins** 2 Likes 1 Share |

You didn't know because you don't explore things. I discovered radio Biafra far back in 2003 on shortwave. Problem was that it wasn't clear enough. |

All I can say is that all the continued detention of this man will work against GMB in the next 4years and beyond. Actually, the people that will use it against him are those singing his praises now and encouraging his impunity and disrespect to human right. This method of using DSS to do even the jobs of EFCC and police will definitely backfire. There are more than 20 impeachable offenses against him now. The best for GMB to do now is to look for people that will educate him and tell him the truth about issues. Nigeria is too delicate for him to handle things this way. |
