Letter To Nnamdi Kanu Where Ever He His

Dear Nnamdi Kanu,
We have never met. I only know you by reputation and I have had cause in the last year to write on your activities within the public arena and offer my own views about you, your persona, and your interventions in the Nigerian debate. I sincerely hope you would get to read this letter wherever you may be, that is assuming you are still alive.

Leader of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu

Your father’s house was recently invaded by the Nigerian military (surprised you don’t have a house of your own!). We were later told that you simply disappeared into thin air, along with your parents. The murderous Operation Python Dance II that was unleashed on Igboland by the Federal Government of Nigeria has since become a subject of national interest. Many people have proclaimed that you have been killed, abducted and that many members of your family and movement – the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) have been wasted. Some people said you were called The Lion, but when trouble came, you were the first to run away from the zoo.

You had boasted that you will deal with any invading force from Abuja. You also said it would be “Biafra or Death”. But when death came calling in the shape of Operation Python Dance II, your enemies insisted that you should have waited. Don’t mind them, oh. I have defended you in another piece where I argued that it is probably better to run away so you can live to fight another day. Of course, it is not every revolutionary that runs away.

Che Guevara died in the struggle, and Martin Luther King, Patrice Lumumba, and so on. Nelson Mandela was jailed for life, but he lived to tell the story. In your case, the way the Nigerian state has been carrying on, it is clear they don’t want you to tell any more stories. You have been charged for treason. You have now been labeled a terrorist. Your organization has been proscribed, and labeled an enemy of the Nigerian state.

A week after soldiers stormed your state, neighbourhood and home, the Nigerian Air Force began to drop its men from helicopters all over Igboland. They call it show of force.

I figure the greater part of that, is to tell you and your men that wherever you are, the Nigerian state is resolved to chase you down. In the event that you are ashore, they will snatch you. In the event that you stow away in the skies, the Air Force will cut you down. What's more, in the event that you cover up in the oceans, the Nigerian Navy and the Amphibious Brigade of the Nigeria Army will angle you out.

Authoritatively, we have been informed that you and IPOB are more terrible than vicious herders and the Boko Haram who have slaughtered a huge number of Nigerians in the most recent year alone. The Boko Haram has been proclaimed the fourth most savage gathering on the planet, however the Nigerian government demands that you represent a more prominent danger. Truth be told, an administration representative seemed as though there is a mystery design set up to give herders and the Boko Haram national honours.

There is most likely something that the Nigerian government and state performing artists realize that we don't have the foggiest idea. You were managing the charge of injustice, now there is the extra claim of fear mongering.

Absolutely never beguile yourself that on the off chance that you get captured again, you'd be discharged, with the exception of maybe you change your character and claim that you are currently a herder or an individual from the Boko Haram. There might be many individuals who have Nicodemus access to you who might instruct you to come and go up against the Nigerian state. That is the way Nigerians sweet-tongue individuals to their demise. I am certain that at this point, from your concealing spot, you would have learnt some lessons.The Nigerian state might be against you, yet the general population you truly need to fear are similar individuals you claim to lead, that is similar individuals who used to call you savior and who tailed you about, stooping before you and kissing the ground on which you strolled. Of what utilize is a change-specialist without submitted devotees? Of what utilize is an insurgency without the general population's up front investment? Of what utilize is a belief system without infantrymen? The minute the Federal Government initiated Operation Python II, the greater part of the general population who used to help you have gone totally quiet. The Biafra Secret Service is no place to be seen. The Biafra National Guard discarded its uniform.

Some of those young men who used to wave the Biafran banner and wear the Biafran top have discarded them as well. Maybe a couple people are as yet issuing proclamations for IPOB, yet even those announcements seem like they were issued from business focuses. Your own family have called you a dictator and a pioneer. Huge numbers of them have composed online networking pieces prompting the Federal Government to manage you, since you don't tune in to exhortation. They even say you are not a genuine progressive but rather a gold-digger.In all way of ways, the Governors of the five Igbo states are utilizing you to play legislative issues.

They have proclaimed IPOB an illicit association. They are straightforwardly manhandling you. All the enormous men in Igbo arrive are as calm as the dead ocean. Igbo conventional rulers have declined to help your dad who is their associate. Some of them have in certainty asked the Abia state Governor to pull back his declaration and staff of office and name someone else in his place. Indeed, even the huge men who marked your safeguard archives have declined to shield you.

You used to brag about global help for the Biafran cause. It has been said that the administration now knows some "treasury thieves" and worldwide gatherings who are subsidizing you and that IPOB accounts have been followed to a few nations, especially France. The French and the Turkish instantly removed themselves from you. Be that as it may, the European Union and the United States talked pleasantly. America says IPOB is not a fear based oppressor association and America will know.

But the Nigerian government that may not know half of what America knows is demanding that it is currently a wrongdoing for anyone, even as youthful as five years of age to relate to Biafra, paying little mind to the Constitutional ideal to the right to speak freely and affiliation and the privilege to self-assurance revered in the UN Charter. In reality, it would show up as though the Nigerian Government has possessed the capacity to break the spine of your development, in any event for the time being, and unquestionably, the way things are, the November 18 race in Anambra state will occur – with or without you.

In the event that anyone expected that there would be a monstrous dissent in the South East finished the treatment that has been dispensed to you, that has not exactly happened. Every one of the business sectors in the South East are open; Igbo dealers crosswise over Nigeria have proceeded onward with their organizations. Life is so typical in the South East, the Nigerian military is moving and beating its chest.Northern and South Eastern Governors are holding gatherings and praising each other. You turned 50 yesterday, aside from a couple of messages via web-based networking media, wherever was tranquil in the South-East. On the off chance that this had been a month prior, the group that would have assembled at your doorstep would have extended from Isiama Afara to Afikpo, and the cakes you would have gotten would have been uncountable.

Rochas Okorocha as of late got 27 birthday cakes, displayed by 27 ladies, speaking to a similar number of neighborhood governments in Imo State, you most likely would have gotten a cake from each nearby government in the whole South East!Since your vanishing there has additionally been little discuss self-assurance or Biafra among Igbos. The sound of the account is bit by bit evolving. There is more speak nowadays about Igbo underestimation, and the need to delegate Igbos into workplaces. One unmistakable Northerner from Kaduna has since gone to Chatham House in the UK to say Igbos ought not whine in regards to minimization when they didn't vote in favor of President Buhari in 2015, and that it is absurd for any Nigerian to hope to harvest where he or she didn't sow. Nnamdi, you'd be shocked that arrangement looking for Igbos will assemble your kin, including your supporters, to vote hugely for similar individuals who are as of now dogging you, in 2019.

You can make sure this will happen. Truth be told a few people are as of now gloating that the best way to have tranquility in Nigeria is to influence an Igbo to man President or Vice President in 2019. While you were yelling "Biafra or demise", a few people were looking at the business and political side of things. Each proposed upheaval regularly keeps running into its own contradictions.But don't stress. It might be stylish now to condemn Nnamdi Kanu however the knowledge of the swarm is not generally the best guide. I earnestly trust that you are alive, and that you'd not wind up as an Abogunrin. Few out of every odd man has the chance to witness what life would resemble after his own memorial service. Foul play is one of those unpleasant elements of the change procedure. The miscreants of the reason would assert they want to survive. The casket producer supplicates intensely for business however he could never wish that his own particular relatives should bite the dust. Be that as it may, take heart, trust is not lost. The fire that you have lit will keep on burning. Your battle talks specifically to the subject of the national inquiry. You have reminded one and all that Nigeria remains a harried nation and that there are numerous uncertain issues. Each exertion has been made to execute your voice, and your development, however the thoughts that you have constrained out of the cabinet will keep on resonate.

the uplifting news likewise is that there are Nigerians in diaspora who have taken up the battle. They went to exhibit at the 72nd United Nations General Assembly in New York and in the city of London. Your companions, FFK and Ayo Fayose are as yet remaining by you. There are numerous others out there who additionally don't concur that you are a psychological militant, regardless of the possibility that they don't concur with your strategies and talk. You have likewise uncovered the affectation of the Igbo world class. You have uncovered the franticness of the decision class. Try not to give your head a chance to swell, however. On the off chance that I should disclose to you reality, you over-acted. An excess of acting dey ruin silver screen. You gave careful consideration to service. You were fixated on your own heroism.

As you read this piece and ponder your life at 50, let me help you to remember the accompanying explanation which you made on August 27, 2017:"Where we are is Biafra arrive. Aba is the otherworldly capital of Biafra arrive. We began in Aba in 2015 at CKC. That day, paradise confirmed our turn that IPOB will reestablish Biafra and that is the thing that we have come to do. We kicked the bucket in Aba at National High School. They shot and slaughtered us in different places in Biafra arrive where they were dissenting for my discharge. As our kin rest in the grave, we'll never rest until the point when Biafra is reestablished. I couldn't care less what they say in Abuja. I don't care the slightest bit what they say in Lagos. I'm a Biafran and we will disintegrate the zoo. A few blockheads who are not taught said that they'll capture me, and I request that they come, I'm in Biafra.

In the event that any of them leaves Biafra arrive alive, realize this is not IPOB. Reveal to them what I said. Disclose to Buhari that I am in Aba and any individual who comes to capture Nnamdi Kanu in Biafra land will kick the bucket here. I'll never go on oust I guarantee you. A few people discuss rebuilding, would we say we are doing the rebuilding of Nigeria now? It is safe to say that we are doing monetary Federalism? Is it true that we are doing devolution? What we need is Biafra! Disregard all the garbage they expound on us. We are not backing off and no man conceived of a lady can stop us… "Words on marble, Mazi Kanu, these are solid words on marble… Whatever happens, the battle of the python and the lion is a vital turning point for Nigeria.By Reuben Abati

So whether EU or United States of Nigeria or any remote nation says in regards to IPOB is insignificant , unessential and of no moment!"He demanded that the assignment of IPOB as a psychological militant gathering with the support of a court arrange prohibiting it a week ago was Nigeria's residential undertaking, which outside countries ought not interfere in.With specific reference to the European Union and the United States of America, Obono-Obla said intruding in Nigeria's inside issue could disintegrate the country's sovereignty.

He stated, "I have beforehand said that the global group ought not intrude in our interior issues in light of the fact that doing that will add up to a disintegration of our sovereignty!"The EU has no business completely and absolutely with our inward issues so if EU says it doesn't consider IPOB to be a fear based oppressor gathering, it doesn't make a difference to the extent Nigeria is concerned."It is unimportant!

So this while IPOB was working in Nigeria illicitly!"

The United States government has said that it does not see the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, as a terrorist organisation.
While the Federal Government of Nigeria has proscribed IPOB and labeled it a terrorist organization, the US government, however, said it does not see IPOB as a terrorist organisation.

It said, although US is strongly in support of a peaceful resolution of internal crisis in Nigeria, however, under the United States’ laws, IPOB does not fit in as a terrorist organisation.
Recall that the Nigerian army’s Director of Defence Information, Major General John Enenche, had pronounced that IPOB was a terrorist organisation after a reported clash between military personnel and IPOB members in Umuahia, Abia state.

Maj.-Gen. Enenche had given reasons for pronouncing IPOB a terrorist organization to include that IPOB members used “stones, molotov cocktails, machetes and broken bottles, among others on a military patrol on Sept. 10, 2017.”

But the two administrations of France and UK denied the allegation.Recall likewise that scarcely 24 hours after the Nigerian armed force articulated IPOB a psychological militant association, the President of the Nigerian eighth Senate, Dr. Saraki censured the categorisation of IPOB as a fear monger association, saying it was unconstitutional.Saraki had said that exclusive an enactment from the Nigerian National Assembly could influence such to a profession valid.Dr. Saraki had stated, "I likewise wish to express that the declaration of the ban of the gathering known as Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) by Governors of the South-east states and the classification of the gathering as a 'psychological oppressor association' by the Nigerian military are unlawful and does not take after due process."Our laws clarify arrangements for taking such activities and without the due procedure being taken after, such revelation can't have impact.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed who disclosed this to State House correspondents at the Council Chamber, Presidential Villa, Abuja, said President Muhammadu Buhari has already approved the process for proscription of IPOB.

He said that IPOB is a contraption against the administration of President Buhari and that the group is being sponsored by some foreign countries.
Mohammed said he would not join the debate over the legality or otherwise of the proscription of the group, saying “For those who are fixated with legality, I have good news for them: President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the process of proscribing IPOB, and the procedure is on as I speak.”

Continuing he said, “But I ask, if the President had been overly concerned with legality, where would Nigeria have been today? If attacks in the South-east had attracted reprisals elsewhere in the country, what would have happened?
“But for the quick action of state governors in the South-east and and the North, there would have been a conflagration of immense proportions.”

He commended the Southeast governors for being proactive by “making it clear to IPOB that it has no support for its violent campaign.
“By its action, the Governors have cut off the oxygen that IPOB needs to survive. If the elected Governors of all the states in the South-east have banned the activities of IPOB, who then is the organization fighting for?

"IPOB is a contraption against the Buhari Administration, and that it is being supported by those "I call the Coalition of the Politically-Disgruntled and the Treasury Looters."I remain by that announcement in spite of the commotion radiating from the standard suspects."Finally, IPOB has chosen to externalize its battle. It has kept in touch with governments and parliaments in the West claiming genocide in the South-east. Indeed, even a word reference meaning of 'genocide' does not bolster that claim. IPOB has likewise occupied with utilizing exceedingly emotive recordings of killings, which it collected from different grounds and were doctored, to dupe the universal community."On why government chose to consider IPOB as a psychological militant association when its individuals don't remain battle ready, Mohammed stated, "I think anyone who has viewed Nnamdi Kanu's recordings anyplace he goes to he straightforwardly requests for arms and for funds."I have a great deal of citations from him with regards to the savagery aim of IPOB, in one of his recordings he said in the event that he is captured his young men should torch the nation, the same Kanu went on TV a couple of days back saying he was dozing at in regards to 4:30pm in his home in Umuahia and afterward a few welds were making clamors they were irritating his rest and his young men ceased them."I ask him which nation on the planet would endure this, tragically Nigerians we have short recollections now and again, or we have a tendency to be exceptionally fiendish in light of the fact that this thing is being transformed into goodness the North is mistreating the south east or muslims oppressing christians.

We have overlooked that in 1983 there was a gathering called Mateseni in Kano, they were smashed by Shagari government, they were muslims and northerners."When they migrated to Burukutu they were again pulverized by Shagari, when Buhari progressed toward becoming Head of State, the same Mateseni raised their head, he pursued them far into the Chad Republic as then the Head of State, I recollect that time he was blamed by America for endeavoring to grow Ghadafi's plan.

Abacha time permitting managed additionally with Mateseni and he was a muslim."President Yar Adua in 2010 was en route to the air terminal when he got a report about Boko Haram, he sent armed force to go and decimate them, these were muslims from the north managing basically Islamic muslim rebellions, anything about insurrection or fear based oppressors act you don't consider religion, you don't consider ethnicity, you consider the solidarity of the country."Honestly Nigeria has been exceptionally fortunate, a week ago there would have been huge carnage if responses had occurred outside the south east and it didn't happen on the grounds that our conventional rulers our governors and different leaders went out to conciliate individuals and the sort of stories that has been drifting on the online networking has not helped things.

"As a self evident certainty there was one expressing that a noteworthy general had been killed, not realizing that it was a resigned significant that was killed in Benue state over land matters, that would have set the whole nation ablaze."As cosmopolitan as Abuja seems to be, it took the FCT priest to activate all the 17 reviewed customary boss and emirs in Abuja to truly hold gatherings with all the stakeholders."To assuage the circumstance and they think its a joke, you can envision what might have happened if the general population of Kano or Kaduna began striking back, so we are in an extremely perilous circumstance and really we are perched on a barrel of explosive.

The peace that you are seeing is tricky we should keep on working on it and we should keep on countering this extremely false narrative."Is there anyone here who can disclose to me which part of Nigeria genocide is occurring it is not valid but rather ofcourse we are in the period of phony news and computerized reasoning where you can make a video of what is going on in Iraq super force pictures in Nigeria and voices and send it, individuals are guileless including some outside countries."On the premise of that we have heard some amusing bones saying that Nigeria ought to be ousted from the United Nations since they are propagating genocide, this legislature won't smother anyone's opportunity of articulation, yet when you go too far for national solidarity we won't permit you.

"The Minister who clarified why President Buhari endorsed the prohibition, stated, "There is a method for banishment, the President must sign the announcement after which the Attorney General will take after the methodology which he is doing."But for me do you need the President to sit tight for this to be put into law before you make a move and quit plundering or slaughtering? Where will Nigeria be today if there is blaze in Lagos or Kano, similar to the Governor of Abia said yesterday there are in regards to 11million igbos living outside the south east, that is not a modest number, its not a joke."When made a request to name those behind the subsidizing of IPOB following the administration proclamation that it had found those behind it's financing, he stated, "I think this is not advanced science, any treasury pillager would do everything conceivable to occupy government.

In the event that by any demonstration, God deny it, Nigeria is today inundated in war, and Nigeria is presently associated with attempting to subdue distress, will the courts be spared?"What would be the main need of government? It will be to suppress that uproar, so its a method for diversion to guarantee that administration is not centered, so its not advanced science that a man today who has a case in court or practically going to prison will attempt and cause perplexity, he would go and bolster IPOB."We have the records, we know IPOB gathers cash from many individuals from diaspora, they gather cash from many individuals in Nigeria they gather cash from some remote nations, this is clear."Let me let you know, the budgetary central command is in France, we know however you see would you be able to as an administration quit sending cash to your folks, you need to obstruct the wellsprings of back that is the thing that I said recently.

"It is undeniable that a few people in diaspora contribute cash to IPOB, where does he get his cash from? We know this as a reality, again there are a couple of exceptionally insidious political issues which you have to skip."For occasion, who does not realize that the IPOB inward radio is situated in London, we know the strategic moves we have been taking and moving toward the UK, every one of the harms its done yet they don't see it that path, for them its about flexibility of expression."If we have a man in Nigeria transparently requesting arms to come and battle the UK, what might you consider, would you consider that opportunity of expression?"And this is a nation that additionally has had a history. What did IRA do to be named a fear mongers association? They were planting bombs, they were battling the British armed force, I don't need any strategic column, we know beyond a shadow of a doubt where the financing is originating from and we will stop them yet it's hard to stop them and we have been dealing with it and we won't stop."

"We additionally approach the commission to as an issue of law and security put off the Anambra governorship race over the waiting SouthEast Army/IPOB instability emergency caused by the current intrusion of the SouthEast locale by the Nigerian Military labeled Operation Python Dance II (Egwu Eke II) which started on September 15, 2017."Section 26(1) of the Electoral Act 2010 as revised unmistakably given to deferment of decision accordingly: "Where a date has been selected for the holding of a race, and there is motivation to trust that a genuine break of the peace is probably going to happen if the race is continued with on that date or it is difficult to direct the races because of cataclysmic events or different crises, the Commission may put off the race and should in regard of the range or zones concerned delegate another date for the holding of the delayed race gave that such motivation to the delay is fitting and verifiable"."We consider what is going on in the SouthEast district (counting Anambra State) today as constituting as "different crises" and "pertinent and evident reason" as gave in the above cited arrangement of the Electoral Act enough for INEC as a dependable constituent body to take after to deflect loss of lives of voters amid the election.
