The family of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has asked the Nigeria Army to produce him, saying that his whereabouts remain unknown weeks after the raid on their Afaraukwu Umuahia family house. The family is alleging that Nnamdi Kanu is in the custody of the army.
This came as Catholic Bishop of Umuahia Diocese, Most Rev. Lucius Iwejuru Ugorji condemned the military exercise code-named Egwu Eke 11, describing it as a tale of terror, blood and tears. But the army has, in a swift reaction, denied knowledge of the whereabouts of the IPOB leader.
The Deputy Director, Public Relations, 82 Division, Colonel Sagir Musa said he did not know about the arrest of Kanu.
“I am not aware of his arrest,” Musa said. But Kanu’s younger brother, Emma insisted that he strongly believed that his elder brother was captured by the army during the raid. He also claimed that the whereabouts of his parents HRM Eze Israel Kanu, and Lolo Sally Kanu are not known since after the attack.
He called on the military to release him to the police. “It is either they captured him or killed him when they attacked our house.
If they captured him, they should release him to the police and if they killed him, they should produce the corpse because he was last seen moments before the raid,” Emmanuel Kanu said. He claimed that the family had been searching for the IPOB leader and his parents since after the military attack but without any clue of their whereabouts.

I thought your son said he's bold and courageous! How come he's easily kidnapped just like that?
ReplyDeleteYou are a modernize slave. What is wrong if a country need a restructuring??? let me assume you are 78years.
DeleteWhy hidden I thought he said the soldiers can not do anything that they will all die, his lawyer said Kanu directed him to challenge the proscription order so the family should ask his lawyer of his where about
ReplyDeleteYou have sold your future to this Old foolish military. No sense of direction at this 22nd generation. I am not an igbo or related to them.I denounce this our stupid part APC for all this propaganda and senseless ideas.
DeleteYou better ask him to come out of his hideout. Never knew he is such a coward.

DeleteBunch of idiots above who rejoice at the calamity of others. Unfortunate sadists. Nigerians should pray Kanu is alive because arresting or killing him may mean bad for Nigeria. If the army still has strength and courage how come they were reduced to rubbles by book haram, forget that show of shame of clearing sambisia. today where is shekau that the same army claimed to have killed several times. what of the Fulani jihadists and militia that kill, maim, rape and destroy. they are not terrorists, abi? shame on all of us. when such monumental injustices befall your own people, others will laugh at you. what goes round turns around, they say. devils be not amused. rejoice not yet.
ReplyDeleteYou are the foolish one. A fight igbos One's fought, spearheaded by a military general and yet lost badly, with millions of life and properties forever gone, it is the same fight, that the foolish born idiot called Kanu,with no military or political background is stupidly and senselessly spearheading again, with brainless he and she goats like u, sheepishly supporting. Continue, you all will die like your ancestors did.
DeleteThere are better ways to go about this , rather than repeating mistakes.It is clearly a foolish way out, because same result,will be achieved

Those of you supporting the federal government who are youth are cowards,i promise you,you have sold your destinies and future.The fight for Biafra is not just about Dividing Nigeria,Its about restructuring in the form of calling for a referendum. What is wrong in this. This has come as a result of a father who can no longer cater for his children. Becauase of bad leadership and ruler-ship there's serious hardship in the Nigeria land. most of all this has lead to several agitations. I have never seen in any part of the world where the peopel want a referendum and their government sent army to kill its own citizens. a simple example now is in Spain,the Catatonias are clamoring for their own country,at the moment the present day leadership are all ready preparing for the referendum. In the past 3 years now same has happened in several countries even UK that give birth to our independence. Why is our own different. Any youth that support the BMB lead administration on this issue is worst that an infidel,your future is gone. We want true federalism,not by guns but by discussion,by referendum. We will still be one Nigerian but all the state should be runing own there own just as its is in the 1967 Nigerian Constitution. We are operating in Military constitution up till date,tell yourselves the truth. if you don't know try and find out.The fight IPOB has been fighting will bring the attention we really need as a country. In the US they have only one president but all state are working independently to develop their areas. the Fact must be told.It will only take time restructuring will come.
ReplyDeleteYou are talking nonsense. Why are you crying now. I thought your Mazi NK said no man born of a woman can do anything to him. Small military show of strength he disappeared which means he has been lying to you all those while. Let him come and do IPOB again fools. Mind you, I am an Igbo man, Biafra can never happen again you better go and find work.
Delete@anonymous 9:26am...abeg, go borrow some sense from your village lunatic! Ashiere
ReplyDeleteEven though kanu is missing,he is nowhere to be found but you guys are happy,let me tell you all the hate speech makers,you guys are not even save wherever you are so don't celebrate on someone's predicament because hence life is involve you are not save.
ReplyDeleteI keep saying this I don't support Biafra nation, but am a core Igbo man, if we did not restructure thhis country now, the worst is coming for our youth, I can't even believe the president will be so naive to sending soldiers against innocent people agitating for their right, there is some thing in this country, some people are benefiting from the current state of the country that is why they don't support the idea of restructuring, they are the ones advicing the president on all this evil he committing, some people are saying why did he run or hid, I want to tell u that 2people does not go mad at the same time, u cannot be naked and run after a naked mad otherwise both of u are mad, even if the mad man come stolen ur cloth u will leave him to that, kanu if he is alive did the right thing by staying away or run or hid whatever u call it, he who fights and run, live to fight another day, but I did not advice him to come fight soldier nor the FG, he has hit the point, I believe Nigerians home and abroad has feel the sense that there is what is needed in the country like restructuring like the other comment made by one of my brother above, Nigeria has abandoned the 1967 constitution and follow the military, before I remember that they used to send money from here to some of our relatives staying in abroad (like USA) but now they send money even if they are studying, no body was willing to go to leave the country that period because the country was balanced, now what do u see, those of u laughing at Kanu, if u see strong flood at the back of ur house u don't mind trying to go overseas by that flood, why because u are looking for greener pasture which u can get here if the country is restructured, dollar will fall to the lowest. My people let's stand with the truth no matter what it will cause, this for a better tomorrow, u can never remain slave in ur fathers house forever, #RESTRUCTURING is what we ask for, let it be our watch word, God bless In-igbo, God federal Republic of Nigeria
ReplyDeleteMy brother, go and find better work and forget Biafra and restructuring. Restructuring is not Nigeria problem. We need to restructure our minds before restructuring the nation. You all praise looters and theifs. You all defends corrupt politicians ones he/she is from your tribe. Everybody want the opportunity to get to the treasury and to loot his own. Nigeria will never be better ones our politicians are being paid jumbo salaries. RESTRUCTURING the politicians is what Nigeria need.
