So they said blood is thicker than water and Snake can’t bear what is not long, Activism they say, runs in the family of the traditional ruler of Afaraukwu in Umuahia, the Abia State capital. From the monarch himself, His Royal Majesty, Eze Sir I. O. Kanu, Eze Ikputu of Afara Ukwu Ibeku in Umuahia, to the least of his children, it’s all the same blue blood of activism permanently glued in their veins. In the early 1990s, Nnamdi Kanu’s younger brother, Emmanuel, spearheaded the agitation for the reduction of school fees. Now Nnamdi, is leading a group to demand the freedom of Biafra.



Daily Sun interviewed HRH Eze Kanu, Nnamdi Kanu’s father, he revealed that it was activism that made him represent his area three times as Councillor, said he was ready to abdicate his throne over the course for which his son is being detained; see the interview excerpt below:

How do you feel concerning your son appearing in court last week?

I’m very happy that he was brought to court on Monday (last week). From what I heard, as I was not able to go because of my health, I was impressed at least my family members were able to see him.

You may have had high hopes your son would be released last week, but he was not. How do you react to this failed expectation?

Well, it’s true that his release has taken time, but every Biafran in Abuja, I learnt, was protesting that he be released. Even those of them that were not on their Biafran uniform later changed to it, flying their flags and also chanting that he should be released. It made me sad that he was not released because I expected them to release him on that very day, but it didn’t come through, instead they adjourned the case.

Do you think it is just for him to continue to be in custody?

And so what?

Every man has his conviction.

No wonder

Then so be it, providing Biafra knows its boundary. The SS can never be Biafra. saying that the SS must do a referendum reeks of stupidity. The SS never supported the biafran agitation and should not to compelled to perform a referendum.

Biafra starts and ends in the SE. anything other than that will see a repeat of 1966, and we know that history will repeat itself.

if only you channel this effort to osun the state wouldn't have been a failed state

who even recognise ur throne in the first place

love....... Eze may you live long..... Ibeku Ukwu Ogurube!

If ur ready then pull off ur regalia and wear ur war Armor. Let's show u d difference btw a football captain and a military captain. Instead of placing his Ofor on d table the Eze is placing his mobile phones.

Hmmm Eze easy oo

Back from another lalasticlala ban...

Ndi Nkem, unu dikwa mma?

We dey Abuja oh

heart of a loving father

This is what I call a man with conviction! Not like the so called Igbo leaders who can't speak out for Biafra because they fear persecution or for selfish interests. Eze Kanu is willing to give up his throne for his son and people, I congratulate him for this noble gesture.

This guy is funny. First he accuses the Igbos of grabbing the lands of the Southern minorities into Biafra but he has no problem grabbing the lands of more than 30 ethnic groups including indigenous Igbos into his phantom 'SS' that is not even recognised in law.

I laugh in Swahili

ok

That's a real man. Meanwhile IPOB is set to write to every US senator and congressman individually on the goings-on in the zoo. They only need ONE US senator to bring the Biafran issue to the fore. Just one.

do it now
