i prefer him who is a foreigner to some Nigerian politicians who loot much from our treasury.

futurism:
I think Nnamdi Kanu was speaking based on history. Unfortunately, we don't study history in Nigeria.

zeromeridian:
Is Atiku from Cameron or not.?
Kanu keep teaching Afonjas History 101

ryloy:
Before I give a historical perspective on the veracity of Nnamdi Kanu’s claim that Atiku Abubakar is “originally from Cameroon”, I must say this about this disturbed personality.

Kanu is a disadvantaged character who does not take himself seriously, but who some lost Igbo sons and daughters, in terrible need of guidance, take seriously.

I do not think he regards much of the rottenness that proceeds from his vocal aperture. I believe he laughs at himself and takes a dip with the cacophony that his bizarre utterances and “commandments” effectuate.

Kanu is a “little scared figure” with the ego of a planet. He is what happens when elders fail, and the people yearn for guidance; a lodestar to show them the way. Whoever emerges to cater to their sentiments is king.

But I think Kanu knows he has thousands of young impressionable minds in his thrall; so he provides them fodder to feed their sentiments, curiosity, bias and confusion. This is how he keeps his business enterprise alive.

It is all about “influencing”. Kanu is not different from Speed Darlington, the Instagram clown, who markets products for clients by making wry comedy out of them.

The more controversial he gets, the more his influence and the more financial endorsements from “sponsors”.

When Kanu marketed the Buhari body-double conspiracy theory, he scored a big one. Many Nigerians, including professors swallowed the garbage. I read as some professors theorised about the possibility of his claim and shuddered at the “certificated ignorance”.

I was surprised that only a few people realised that Kanu was delivering a PR assignment – denuding Buhari. And he was successful at it. President Buhari had to succumb to pressure to confirm his own existence.

But now, he says Atiku is “originally from Cameroon”, and that the PDP presidential candidate became a Nigerian when his region through a referendum became part of Nigeria.

Is he right? Is there a method to his madness? Yes. Kanu may not be entirely wrong.

On 11 February 1961, a plebiscite was held in British Cameroons to determine which parts of the territory will stay in Cameroon or align with Nigeria. While northern Cameroon favoured a union with Nigeria, southern Cameroon wanted an alignment with the mother country. On 1 June, 1961, northern Cameroon became part of Nigeria, and on 1 October 1961, the southern territory dissolved into Cameroon.

And really, much of the present day Adamawa state in Nigeria is part of the old northern Cameroon. In fact, there is a region called “Adamawa” in Cameroon today. And even the kingdom of the Lamido of Adamawa stretches into Cameroon.

However, Kanu’s claim, though historically correct, is for exploitative propaganda purposes.

Kanu does not believe in Biafra, he only believes in the idea of making a living by selling an illusory kingdom.

Biafra is just merchandise for him.

Some part of adamawa joined Nigeria through a referendum. That is kanu's point

Ok, for those who find this as something to cheer about in the the APC, let me burst your bubble

Tinubu is not as Nigerian.. Why? Because Lagos was a crown colony from 1862 to 1906, and that made every citizen of Lagos a British citizen. Tinubu's ancestors are British and by colonial implication, Tinubu is British!

Alexander Ekwueme, a VP of the federal republic of Nigeria from 1979 to 1983 was Biafran!

AND....

Nnamdi Kanu, you are a son of treason. Your parents held on to arms and fought against the Nigerian State as Biafran citizens when you were born in 1969, by IMPLICATION AND ACCIDENT OF YOUR BIRTH, you are not a Nigerian, and you have no right to associate or adjudicate on matters concerning the Nigerian state. As an adult, you naturalized as a British citizen, further severing ties with your people you claim to love.

So, please face your British and Jewish nationality and passion and stop meddling in the internal affairs of Nigeria!!!!!

It's very hilarious and Laughable how ipob pigs try to justify every trash and bullshit their Nnamdi cownu says

.

jlinkd78:
Your hate for Kanu has made u call him several derogatory names but u ended up agreeing with him that the Cameroon original nativity of Atiku has some merit. Nnamdi Kanu with this revelation has once proven wrong his enemies and confirmed he is truly a scholar of contemporary history. While I as a person prefers Atiku over Buhari and would wish him to win in d forthcoming elections, it must be emphasized that people should give Kanu d respect he deserves for furnishing us with information that appears hidden.

The bolded got my interest on the character of the celeberated Igbo hero

NgeneUkwenu:
Atiku Should Just Remove His Trousers Publicly And End This Debate.

What is difficult here?

wirinet:


Which history are you talking about? That Atiku is a cameroonian?

Say IPOB don't study history. Most educated Nigerians or those over 60 years of age knows that Adamawa joined Nigeria in 1961.

ORIENTATION101:
ohamadike will place curse on any wawa fools that support a camerounian in biafra land

ItsMeAboki:
IPOB stupidity; they are yearning for a Biafra yet are Atikulating for a man who believes in One Nigeria; while completely going against the orders of their Dilector Maazi Kanu of no Lefelendum no Erection.

The only person that owes Nigerians explanations on;
a) Why the Biggest economy in African and 3rd fasted growing economy in the world (2014) crashed in just 10 months of his assuming office, is Buhari.
b) Buhari is the only person that will explain why 12,4Million Nigeria lost their jobs because of zero economic focus of his govt.
c) Buhari is the only person that will explain why over N1.2Trillion was invested in Agriculture and we can't find the food on our dining tables.
d) It is only Buhari, that will answer why over 1,000 were killed (unprotected) by Boko Haram that he told Nigerians that he has defeated.
e) Buhari is the only person that will answer the question on the $1billion he claimed spent on arms and the Army chiefs said that they received nothing.
f) Buhari owes Nigerians explanation why has to pay about $500million for Warplanes that will be supplied in 2022 for a war that is speedily ravaging Nigerians now?
g) The question on the N9.4Trillion Missing in NNPC and catalogue of Looting by Buhari's family, friends, Party members are best explained by Buhari the Oil Minister and President is for Buhari to answer.
h) Buhari should have explained to Nigerians why he failed in all his 2015 three cardinal campaign points in 2015 of Economy, Terror War and Corruption Fight and only succeeded in bringing Poverty in the land.
This is why I said that Atiku was Right leaving the campaign Venue when Buhari fails to show up, as he can't Debate himself. BUHARI is a DISASTER.
