If you are among those hailing Nnamdi Kanu and his foot soldiers, know that you will also reap from whatever evil they sow. No matter how long.

You will also reap what you sow by supporting Nigerian soldiers killing Igbo's.

Mad people everywhere.

No country ever wins gorilla warfare.

Tinubu is a Biafran.

WHY SUBMISSIONS BY NNAMDI KANU’S LAWYERS WILL FALL LIKE PACK OF CARDS
By Clifford Iroanya
Elombah News
24 Oct 2021


Of all the submissions put up by lawyers to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the only one that will be irrefutably in their favour is submission number xviii, considering that there is no such law as “CAP C77” as quoted in Counts #1 & #2 on the charge sheet.

The remaining submissions by Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyers will fall like a pack of cards.

However, if the Department of State Services (DSS) quickly changed the law they cited from “CAP C77” to “CAP C38” and the Judge allows that change to be made, then even the submission number xviii by Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyers will be irrelevant.

Here are the submissions of Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyers:

According to Kanu in a preliminary objection filed by his lawyers led by Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the charge as constituted does not disclose a ‘prima facie’ case against him.

1. AN ORDER striking out/quashing and or dismissing the 7-count Amended Charge, specifically, counts 1 to 7 preferred against the Defendant/Applicant in the Amended Charge No: FHC/ABJ/CR/383/2015, for the reason that the counts, as constituted, are incompetent and thus, deprives the Honourable Court of jurisdiction to entertain the same.

2. AN ORDER of the Honourable Court discharging and acquitting the Defendant/Applicant of all the counts in the 7-Count Amended Charge preferred against the Defendant/Applicant, upon the same being struck out/quashed and or dismissed.

FURTHER TAKE NOTICE THAT THE OBJECTION is predicated on the following grounds, namely;

i. That the 7 Counts preferred against the Defendant/Applicant in the Amended Charge is incompetent, and consequently the Honourable Court lacks the requisite jurisdiction to entertain the same.

ii. That allegations in the 7-count Amended Charge, particularly counts 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7, is that the Defendant/Applicant made a broadcast in London, United Kingdom, but that same was monitored in Enugu and in other parts of Nigeria.

iii. That no allegation was made in any of the Counts of the Amended Charge that the alleged sundry acts of the Defendant/Applicant were physically carried out by him, within the geographical space or territorial boundaries of Nigeria.

iv. That the only element requisite to constitute and found liability for incitement is the actual words allegedly uttered by the Defendant/Applicant.

v. That the alleged acts ascribed to the Defendant/Applicant as constituting offences, were not made up of several elements. See Section 12 of the Criminal Code Cap 38 LFN 2004. That the element of alleged inciting statements did not occur anywhere within the territorial boundaries of Nigeria. Further, that the only element requisite to constitute liability for incitement allegedly occurred wholly and entirely in London, United Kingdom, and not anywhere within Nigeria.

vi. That jurisdiction is extrinsic to adjudication. It is conferred on a Court, aliunde. It is not intrinsic. See SYLVESTER OKONKWO v. HON. EBELE OBI & ORS (2019) LPELR-48183(CA); ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS v. HON. GODWIN ETIM JOHN & ORS (2019) LPELR-47003(CA).

vii. That the principal legislation that governs the trial of offences in Nigeria, namely, the Criminal Code Act, Cap C38, LFN, 2004, in Section 12 thereof, clearly delineates the jurisdiction of a Court adjudicating over a crime. That the provisions of Sections 93-96 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, does not purport to displace any part of Section 12 of the Criminal Code Act. Neither does the Terrorism Prevention Amendment Act of 2013.

viii. That as the whole elements necessary to constitute incitement in the alleged several broadcasts of the Defendant/Applicant occurred in London, United Kingdom, and Not in Nigeria, the Court in Nigeria has no jurisdiction to try the Defendant/Applicant on any charge founded on any such alleged incitement, even if the Defendant/Applicant enters the geographical boundaries of Nigeria.

ix. That although the Terrorism (Prevention Amendment) Act, 2013 purports to invest the Act with extra territorial jurisdiction, it in no way clothes the Honourable Court with the jurisdiction to try the Defendant for the said offences allegedly committed in London. For the extra territorial jurisdiction of the Terrorism (Prevention Amendment) Act, 2013 to apply, the principle of double criminality must be established.

x. That the alleged acts for which the Defendant was charged, do not constitute terrorism offences in London, United Kingdom, where they were allegedly committed.

xi. That Section 1(A)(2) of the Terrorism (Prevention Amendment) Act, 2013, imposes an obligation on the Attorney General of the Federation, to maintain International co-operation for compliance with International Treaties on terrorism.

xii. That the international co-operation and compliance envisaged in the said Section 1(A)(2) of the Act, presupposes, amongst other things that due process of law must be followed at all times, which also includes, that the Defendant in the instant charge must be rendered lawfully from any territory outside Nigeria.


xiii. That the Defendant was abducted from Kenya and consequently extraordinarily rendered to Nigeria, without firstly subjecting him to extradition proceedings in Kenya, in violation of all known international conventions and treaties on extradition.
xiv. That the Defendant cannot be arraigned and tried on the 7-count Amended Charge, when he was not lawfully rendered to Nigeria and, consequently brought before the Court.

xv. That prosecuting the Defendant on the 7-count Amended Charge, would amount to allowing the Complainant to benefit from their illegality and wrongdoing.

xvi. That he who comes to equity must come with clean hands, and no party should be allowed to benefit from his wrong doing.

xvii. That the extraordinary rendition of the Defendant, robs the Honourable Court of the requisite jurisdiction to try him on the 7-Count Amended Charge.

xviii. That counts 1, 2 and 3 of the Amended Charge were brought under a non-existent law.

xix. That Count 2 of the Amended Charge is legally deficient because it rests on freedom of speech protected by the Nigerian Constitution, section 39, and international law, Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 19 of the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights.

xx. That count 3 of the 7-count Amended Charge relates to an offence allegedly committed in Ubuluisiuzor, in Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State, outside the territorial jurisdiction of the Honourable Court.

xxi. That counts 5, 6 and 7 of the Amended Charge are ambiguous and do not disclose any offence known to law.

xxii. That Count 6 of the Amended Charge is also fatally deficient because it fails to allege any acts or words by Defendant/Applicant in furtherance of an act of terrorism as defined by the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011. Additionally, the allegedly wrongful words uttered by Defendant/Applicant constitute free speech protected by the Nigerian Constitution, Article 39, and by Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 39 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

xxiii. That Count 7 of the Amended Charge is further fatally deficient because it fails to allege any acts or words by Defendant/Applicant in furtherance of an act of terrorism as defined by the Terrorism Prevention Act of2011. Additionally, the allegedly wrongful words uttered by Defendant/Applicant constitute free speech protected by the Nigerian Constitution, Article 39, and by Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 39 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

xxiv. That there is no proof of evidence attached to the Amended Charge filed against the Defendant.

xxv. That the even the purported proof of evidence to be relied upon by the prosecution does not disclose any prima facie case against the Defendant.

xxvi. That from the list of Exhibits and witnesses attached to the 7-Count Amended Charge, there is nothing relating to or linking the Defendant to the 7-Count Amended Charge, particularly counts 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the Charge.

xxvii. That no final pronouncement has been made on the purported proscription of the Indigenous People of Biafra, as the said purported proscription, is a subject matter of Appeal in Appeal No: CA/A/214/2018, pending before the Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal.

xxviii. That by virtue of Section 36(12) of the 1999 Constitution as amended, the Defendant/Applicant cannot be arraigned or tried for an offence which its validity or otherwise is the subject matter of an appeal.

xxix. That it will be most unjust, painful, wicked and unfair for the Applicant to undergo the rigors of a full trial, when the charge as constituted, does not disclose a prima facie case against him.

Bleep. That there is no ground for this Honorable Court to proceed with the trial against the Applicant, in the circumstance of this case.

xxxi. That the Court has the powers and a duty to stop a prosecution which on the facts creates abuse and injustice.


Addendum:
The Law cited in Count #3 on Nnamdi Kanu’s charge sheet is correct.
Hence, part of his lawyers’ submission in number xviii which included Count #3 is wrong. This is because the notion that “CAP C45” is a non-existent Law is false.

THROWBACK: In 2014 Bishop Kukah Criticised Nigerians For Criticising Government Calling Them Cynics

Nigerians love to criticize their country perhaps far more than any nation I know of in the world. Yes, we have all earned the right to be cynical and even contemptible about the way we have been governed, and about how the resources of our nation have been frittered away mindlessly.

“I am even more amused by the criticisms of some of our brethren in the Diaspora especially those who think that simply being abroad has set them apart from their fellow countrymen and women, those who believe that those of us who are here are so because we are not good enough to be abroad.

“… It is about time we took off the gloves and speak honestly to ourselves about our future as a country, our mistakes, our fears, anxieties and deep hope. We are not the worst people on earth nor is our country the worst piece of God’s real estate. We have to seize this narrative and re-define ourselves…

[b]The measure of the greatness of a people or even individuals is based on how or where they stand in moments of trials and tribulations. Nigeria is going through such a phase now. Since the outbreak of the tragedy that is Boko Haram, one has seen another side of our citizens that is quite tragic. Rather than trying to stand together to rise beyond this in hope together, I find some of my fellow citizens creating more confusion and using the insurgency as weapons of politics.

“…The President and the security agencies have become the objects of attacks and vilification and yet, there is very little that is being done to point at the way forward. I know that as day follows night, we shall pull out of this tragedy that we face as a nation. But the least we can do is to stand in the comforts of highways and homes that someone else constructed and thrown stones at ourselves and our people simply because we are living off someone else’s sweat.”

Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah speaking at a lecture organized by the members of the Pyrates Confraternity to mark the 80th Birthday anniversary of Nigeria’s Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka in 2014. [/b]

Though your source is very corrupt like you, Buhari, Tinubu and the rest, however i want you to compare the price of rice then and now, then tell us the difference...

Goats who criticised Jonathan are even expected to crucify Buhari for the over 600% increase in the price of commodities in the market.

It is alleged that Davido and Chioma are currently not on good terms.

According to a popular Instagram blogger Cutie Julls, Davido and his favorite baby mama, Chioma, traded blows before he went to Ghana to continue trading the blows with Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, known professionally as Burna Boy.

The self-acclaimed African giant attacked the CEO of DMW Records on sight, and that resulted in a brawl inside a Twist Night club in Accra, Ghana, while Wizkid was sitting unconcerned drinking wine after the three current biggest Nigerian artists clashed in the same club.

Well, Cutie Julls has taken to Instagram and alleged that Davido is currently not on good terms with Chioma Avril Rowland because they traded blows before the singer went to Ghana.

Senate President, Dr. Ahmed Lawan has said irrespective of religious and political persuasions, Nigeria has continued to remain a united and indivisible entity.

He said this on Sunday in Igbere, Bende local government area of Abia State during the 10th year Memoriam of Late Chief Johnson Uzor Nesiegbe Kalu, father of Senate Chief Whip, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, ABN TV reports.

According to Lawan, the creme of people who graced the occasion is a testimony that there is unity among Nigerians.

"Regardless of our political and religious persuasions, we are attending a function that all of us believe is so important. Abia state is a home of unity.

"We have seen the presence of the Minority Leader of the Senate, our brother Sen. Enyinnaya Abaribe (Abia South), Sen. T.A Orji (Abia Central). These are people who belong to different political parties. So this kind of environment is not a political environment but the people's environment.

"The governor of Enugu state, my brother Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has been here since in solidarity for this family and this is what unity can achieve for us.

"Today, tomorrow, and indeed forever, we can achieve greater, we can achieve more when we are united. Nigeria is designed by the grace of God to be a nation of many people, different orientations, different sentiments but must be a people that have a common purpose and common destiny. This is what we want to achieve at all times" he said.

While extolling Late Chief Johnson Uzor Nesiegbe Kalu for raising his children to be responsible members of society, the Senate President urged Nigerians to continue to advance the unity of the country by pursuing a common agenda of being at the center of Nigeria.

He also added that Nigeria needs the effort of everyone to move forward, maintaining that there is strength in unity.

The amiable senate President of the federal republic of Nigeria has spoken very well and indeed that's what we good people of Nigeria have seen in display today at Orji Uzo Kalus residence.

Nigeria is indeed blessed but people of dark soul will die to see Nigeria scattered because it benefits the Southwest.

Ouk is a unifying force to reckon with.

Those south wasterners are clowns and cowards.

I dare them to declare a republic like the igbos did and the federal government as igbos did too.

All they have is loud mouth.

The leader of the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum, Yerima Shettima, has said the agitation for a sovereign nation by the Yoruba people is a mere threat. Shettima told SaharaReporters in an interview on Thursday, while reacting to the statement made by a renowned historian, Prof. Banji Akintoye, that Yoruba people would soon be independent.

Akintoye, the Alana of Ilana Omo Oduduwa, on Tuesday through the media and communications secretary of the group, said, “The Yoruba journey to redemption has started, and soonest, we are going to reach our Canaan land without any bloodshed.”

In his reaction to the assertion, Shettima said, “It is just a mere threat as far as I am concerned, and I don’t wish it to be true.”

“That kind of statement does not mean well for the country. It is not a comment that should come from positive-minded people. I have a lot of respect for him, and people like him have the mental capacity to be advising the nation.

“If we think it is because Buhari is there today, it could be you or me tomorrow. It could be anybody from other regions rather than the North. That’s why I am one of those calling for restructuring. The central government is weak. It can’t hold the country together. But we can be better together.”

Shettima also responded to a message circulating on social media that he would assemble terrorists against South-East and South-West of Nigeria if the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, did not disband the Eastern Security Network within seven days.

“I am an advocate of peace between the North and the South,” Shettima said. “My political associates know me in the struggle for peace and unity. Some people are just using that to destabilise the country.

“A time will come when the truth will be revealed. Nigerians must know that I cannot be used because I have never been part of violence and will never be in the future.

“I have always been part of peace in the country. It is true that things are not good, and nobody is happy but that doesn’t mean we should destroy the country. I am not part of the problem.”
