IPOB warns against continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu
The Indigenous People of Biafra has warned against continued detention of its leader Nnamdi Kanu.
According to a press statement signed by Emma Powerful,the media and publicity secretary of IPOB, decried the continued detention of Kanu, adding that it would bring doom’s day.
He disclosed that the reports from Kanu’s lawyers did not resonate hope or well-being of the leader of the proscribed organisation.
The statement partly read, “International Community, Nigerians, and friends of Biafra should recall that Mazi Nnamdi KANU is being persecuted by the Nigeria government while there are no charges against him.
“As it is today, Mazi Nnamdi KANU is being detained illegally while the Nigeria government is colluding with the Supreme Court of Nigeria to kill him through torture in DSS solitary confinement. It’s sad that the Supreme Court of Nigeria will criminally maintain silence while court orders are abused and Mazi Nnamdi KANU’S human right grossly violated.”
FULL TEXT: RELEASE MAZI NNAMDI KANU, NIGERIA’S PRESIDENCY, TO AVOID DOOM DAYS- IPOB
The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command of our indomitable leaders and Prophet Mazi Nnamdi KANU once again publicly raise alarm on the deteriorating health condition of our leader in the DSS solitary confinement. We, therefore, again and again demand for his unconditional release per the order of Courts so that he can get proper medical examination and treatment.
The information we received yesterday, Thursday, 13th of April 2023, from one of our lawyers who visited Mazi Nnamdi KANU is distressing. According to the report, Mazi Nnamdi KANU is physically exhausted and vomiting due to the torturous DSS solitary confinement. We should recall that Mazi Nnamdi KANU has a medical condition that DSS has not been able to treat, yet they have refused him access to his personal doctors and specialists. The physical exhaustion of Mazi Nnamdi KANU is connected to his untreated medical condition and complications emanating from injuries he sustained from torture, lack of proper nutrition, and lack of medication in solitary confinement for almost two years. We are demanding his immediate and unconditional release to attend to his failing health.
The International Community, Nigerians, and friends of Biafra should recall that Mazi Nnamdi KANU is being persecuted by the Nigeria government while there are no charges against him. As it is today, Mazi Nnamdi KANU is being detained illegally while the Nigeria government is colluding with the Supreme Court of Nigeria to kill him through torture in DSS solitary confinement. It’s sad that the Supreme Court of Nigeria will criminally maintain silence while court orders are abused and Mazi Nnamdi KANU’S human right grossly violated.
Today, we are calling and crying for the release of our leader. The government of Nigeria and all authorities there in are remaining adamant. We peacefully protested for the release of our leader, and murderous Nigeria Security Forces massacred our people in cold blood in Aba, Abia State. If anything bad happens to Mazi Nnamdi KANU in DSS custody (Okike forbid), these peaceful approaches will become a “tit for tat.” Everyone and every group that is involved will pay with their own blood irrespective of their location in the world.
Those involved in torturing Mazi Nnamdi KANU using the instrument of injustice and coercion will not break his resolve nor IPOB’s resolve to demand for Biafra Independence, Not now, not tomorrow, and not forever. The Nigeria government and her supporters should understand that Mazi Nnamdi KANU is a living legend that Biafrans will not trade with anything in this world.
Release Mazi Nnamdi KANU unconditionally as the courts have ordered to avoid dooms day.
A stitch in time saves nine.
COMRADE EMMA POWERFUL, MEDIA, AND PUBLICITY SECRETARY FOR IPOB
