Part of the major conditions of the bail, which Justice Binta Nyako had granted Kanu on April 25, 2017, included prohibition from granting press interviews.
The judge also barred Kanu from participating in any rally and warned that he should never be found in any crowd of more than 10 persons.
It can be recalled that sources in the Federal Ministry of Justice in Abuja revealed that alleged breaches of the bail conditions by Kanu were being observed, and might be relied on by the Federal Government to ask the court to revoke the bail.
However, reacting to the development, IPOB said it did not care if the Federal Government decided to revoke Kanu’s bail.
IPOB spokesman, Comrade Emma Powerful, who made the declaration while responding to our correspondent’s enquiries, said the revocation of Kanu’s bail would not affect the agitation for Biafra.
In an email, which he sent to our correspondent, the IPOB spokesman added that arresting Kanu again would be a major mistake on the part of the Federal Government.
“We don’t give a damn – whether they arrest him (Kanu) or not. We don’t bother.
“Whether they keep Nnamdi Kanu in or out of Nigerian prisons, the restoration effort continues unabated,” Powerful said, adding that “having Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in prison is always good for the struggle to restore Biafra.
“Nnamdi Kanu alive is peaceful disintegration; he dies in prison then Nigeria will witness a level of destruction that even Britain cannot stop,” the pro-Biafran agitator declared.
Noting that Kanu’s re-arrest would turn out to be a major mistake on the part of the Federal Government, Powerful pointed out that the IPOB leader’s initial arrest raised the profile of the struggle for Biafra to its current level.
He said, “Arresting Mazi Nnamdi Kanu again cannot stop the agitation rather it will be a very big mistake on the part of Federal Government and her security operatives because when they arrested him on his arrival from London in his hotel room in Lagos, it sparked protests across the world and it drew the attention of world leaders and other relevant world organisations. “ Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Comrade Emma Powerful, you told them the truth... If they have ears, let them hear what the Spirit is saying... Biafra is alive for God almighty is with us!
ReplyDeleteLazy minds with narrow focus about life always seeking for who to blame for their failures.what have you done with the allocation collected over the years.....Nothing to show for it. They prefer to share the allocation to drink OGOGORO right from the village HEAD to the little boy in the village. Please check yourselves before you reck yourselves .
ReplyDeleteOkay now you say you "don't care if Nnamdi KANU is sent back to prison" but mark my words if he's arrested and locked up today, these same groups will be crying foul.
ReplyDeleteThis people are confused, total confused of what they are doing.
