Fresh Reactions Trail Kanu's Continued Detention, Bail Denial
When news broke on Thursday, May 26, that the Court of Appeal in Abuja
had denied a bail application by Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), all hell seemed to have broke loose.
In a unanimous judgment on Wednesday, May 25, a three-man panel of
justices of the appellate court led by Justice Abdul Aboki, affirmed the
decision of the Federal High Court to deny Kanu’s bail application.
Nnamdi Kanu is facing treason charges, alongside two others, Benjamin Madubgwu and James Nwawuisi. The IPOB leader was denied bail by the Appeal Court of Nigeria
Nigerians and Biafrans took to social media to share their support and displeasure over the decision. Below are some reactions.
Debekeme Egberi said: “I don’t expect any Nigeria court to
rule in Favour of Biafra, beside Buhari even stated it clearly that he
will not allow court to release Kanu! But you know what? Buhari is
killing and sinking Nigeria gradually but some Nigerians are blind to
see the future, any Buhari’s move is in the Favour of Biafra, Nelson
Mandela went to prison came out with victory and shame his enemies, and
today where are the Nelson Mandela enemies? Martin Luther King went and
came out victorious, all freedom fighters always come out with victory
it will only take time, and then shame will be for Nigeria! And beside
this Guy Nnamdi Kanu is a pure prophet which even the Nigerians have
seen the prove and evidence but out of shame they’ve all blocked their
eyes and ears.”
Kelechi Amukamara was of the opinion that Nnamdi has finished
Buhari’s government with his wisdom, “even if he dies today, Nigeria
won’t recover from the mess Nnamdi Kanu put them in 10 yrs,” Kelechi
noted.
In Simon Nwokeogu’s opinion, Nnamdi could never have been
granted bail by the Appeal Court, “When Buhari had already decided to
deal with him? Nnamdi can’ t get justice in Nigeria, this is obvious,”
Simon opined.
“Can someone tell me what this young man has done? Is it that he is fighting for his right?
Nigeria is an agreement of many Nations, and if one feels that he is
no more comfortable with the treatment or the way things are going, he
has the right to opt out.
“It is an ignorant thing to think that kanu is fighting against the
Nigerian state, it is not by force a marriage is conducted, for those
whom this marriage favours will not want it to end, but remember that
evil can triumph just for a while, it doesn’t last forever.
“Nnamdi Kanu’s war is a war without an end, what he is fighting for
is a spiritual movement that cannot be fought in the physical, it seems
that our constitution have been suspended because the present government
does not obey court order again.
“The country is being ruled with coercion, for how long shall we be seating like this?,” queried Jah Son.
On the other hand, Raphael Mohammed said: “The war we are
fighting is social media war as a matter of fact Biafra agitation is
dead for long. If u ask a typical Igbo man that have tangible
investments about this agitation, 99.9% of them will tell you Na’a Mbanu
we are not ceding from Nigeria.”
Lending his voice to Raphael’s voice, Annur Umar Sadiq said:
“On behalf of good people of Nigeria, we are here to sacrifice the life
of Nnamdi Kanu to Remain in Prison till death, For the benefit of over
170m Nigerians to live in peace.
Bello Garba did not hide his delight. “Am in support of the
appeal court, Nnamdi Kanu is a nuisance, a traitor that wants to destroy
his father land with a false movement of creating Biafra that all saint
and responsible people amongst them are not in support. His major crime
is breach of trust to his country, he should be given life imprisonment
as for me,” Bello stressed.
Muhammad M Adam asked Nigerians to stop deceiving themselves.
He said: “You guys should stop deceiving yourselves, kanu is dying in
prison. Nigeria is one and we cannot afford to divide our country over
one minor ethnic and parasite group. what Kanu did is a treasonable
felony which attracts death penalty according to the law!”
MD Martins said: “Let Kanu Nnamdi receive good zoo treatment,
when he came to USA, the real Igbos in USA advised him not to go on what
he cannot end….well let the movie continue…..I know some gullible lazy
Igbos ones will raise abusive word on me…I am expecting it…because we
will charges Kanu Nnamdi to court for the death of the innocent Igbos
one in protect in Southeast….we are still washing…”
Meanwhile, just as photographs of a Biafran representative spotted at a
United Nations conference in the United States made their way into the
media, the embattled Nnamdi Kanu, has insinuated that the Biafran territory is recognised in 30 countries of the world.
It is believed that such international recognition is necessary for the
independence of a sovereign state of Biafra which according to IPOB
comprises of all the states n the south-eastern part of Nigeria and some
other states in the south-southern part of the country.
Kanu, is asking the Community Court of Justice of the Economic Community
of West African States (ECOWAS) to force the Nigerian government to pay
him $800 million as compensation for the gross violation of his human
rights.
Kanu had been in detention since October 14, 2015 and all efforts to get him to enjoy bail have been rebuffed by the government.

detention to save Nigeria from splitting
