Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has mocked the President Muhammadu Buhari administration, after the US Government stated that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), is not a terrorist organization.
In a tweet posted on his account on Sunday, Fani-Kayode called out the “mumus clapping for Buhari”, over his decision to proscribe IPOB.
He wrote: “‘America does not see IPOB as a terrorist organisation’- US Embassy.
“O dear. Where are all the mumus that were clapping for @MBuhari?”
The spokesman for the American Embassy in Nigeria, Russell Brooks, stated that the US is committed to Nigeria’s unity and would support a peaceful resolution of any crisis in the country.
“The United States Government is strongly committed to Nigeria’s unity. Important political and economic issues affecting the Nigerian people, such as the allocation of resources, are worthwhile topics for respectful debate in a democracy.
“Within the context of unity, we encourage all Nigerians to support a de-escalation of tensions and peaceful resolution of grievances. The Indigenous People of Biafra is not a terrorist organisation under US law,” he said.

FFK....; the statement says under US law meaning that Nigeria is indeed independent to take decisions on such matters rather than wait for foreign countries. The fate of IPOB will be decided in the court law sequel the appeal by the group. Until a decision from the court,lets all wait instead of name calling.
ReplyDeleteConcerning national security, we borrow a it of our intelligence systems and execution from America, so FFK is not far off. The truth is that IPOB is not a terrorist organisation. Every terrorist organisation has a people or thing they terrorise - basic common sense - please tell me who or what is being terrorised and how?
DeleteUncle receive sense, a terrorist that lives in his house?, A terrorist you attack without attacking you back?, A terrorist with a lawyer? I tire for your own kind of terrorist.
DeleteMaybe you tell your children what terrorists really look like.
U be mumu
DeleteDis FFK is insane! Is America going to decide for us? Under American law IPOB may not. But under our domestic law IPOB is. What is his problem? Must he wail on every issue? Pls shut up for a while. People are no longer interested in ur comments. Pls spare us.
DeleteNigerian don't need Americans approval for their law and order to work on It citizens. Watch and see whether nigerian government will not deal with the terrorist group
ReplyDeleteSometimes Mshelia, your semi-illiteracy nor get part two
DeleteMumu, herdsmen criminal, IPOB terrorist in your own thinking
Deletemy beloved brothers, throwing petrol bombs, burning down police stations, killing and maiming police officers, these have the proclivities of a terrorist group, truth must be said.
ReplyDeleteWe threw petrol bombs as students during protests, does that make us terrorists?
DeleteHey throwing petrol bombs has never been described as terrorism. Terrorist organization operates in much wider ways. However, Nigerian government used the term terrorism in order to have support of international community. Fortunately many enlightened people understand terrorism in better perspective than Nigerian government narrow definition.
ReplyDeleteMumu every country defines terrorist to suit it's own purpose.America call any organization that does not dance to its tune a terrorist state or organization. Sometimes rogue state. Syria call frendom fighters terrorist.Israel call Hamas terrorist organization while Iran calls them freedom fighters.Hizbollah also the same thing.What were freedom fighters in Europe called? How did the Zionist operated in Europe before getting a State. Read history.So I don't blame Buhari. IPOB was Terrorising people in Biafra by saying no election in the area.Killing police . Arming itself.Threatening the Federal government.Having a flag etc.
ReplyDeleteYou are the biggest mumu for calling someone that bears no arm terrorist. In 2015 baba said if does not become president blood will flow" did you call him a terrorist
DeleteGbam! Good question. and blood flowed.
