THE leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra and founder of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has expressed regret for referring to President Muhammadu Buhari as a terrorist, evil and a paedophile in his radio broadcasts.

you can only tender apology to someone over a statement that is not true. the questions are , is buhari a terrorist ?(answer with current case of zakzarky ), is he a paedophile? ( look into case study of aisha)...

Kanu, who has been charged along with two others by the Federal Government before a Federal High Court in Abuja on six counts of treason and other ancillary offences, said he intended to write a private letter to Buhari to express his apology to the President.

can buhari truly and openly swear that he has not meet kanu one on one since his arrest?

He also apologised to former President Goodluck Jonathan and Igbo elders for “some uncomplimentary things” he said about them.

no sane being can ever apologise to entities that deserve no apology.

The 48-year-old pro-Biafran agitation leader, who is, however, unapologetic about his demand for a Republic of Biafra, has been in the custody of the Department of State Services since his arrest in Lagos on October 14, 2015.

thanks for using that word unapologetic cos none mentioned above deserve it

He tendered the apology for his comment against Buhari and others in a statement which he made to the DSS on October 23.

this is the biggest joke ever and the biggest lies stronger than that of lie mohamed, since oct 23 and they are telling us today about the apology? cut it shor, the DSS i know will even say it before he open his mouth to tender the so called apology than waiting for close to 2 months.

The prosecution, in its summary of the case, alleged that in one of the radio broadcasts by Kanu on August 1, 2015, he expressed his resolve to actualise the Republic of Biafra and “cast aspersions on the person and the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria”.

The statement read in part, “Reference to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as a terrorist, evil and a paedophile is regrettable and uncalled for and for that, I unreservedly apologise and will be doing so in a private letter to the President.

the DSS i know will even buy long note thick cover with blue , black and red pen immediately so the private apology wont waste one seconds time. if a government can be lying in this manner then we deserve no respect from any other sane country in this world.

“Before PMB (President Muhammadu Buhari) there was the administration of Goodluck Jonathan. I also said uncomplimentary things about him and Igbo elders as well, which I now recognise should not have happened because it is un-African to be rude or insolent to elders.

“All I was trying to do is to draw attention to the problems afflicting society and something done about them.”

didnt sound like kanu statement , next use his words.

Kanu, who described himself as a Nigerian and a British citizen, justified his agitation for a Biafra Republic.

thats his right

He said IPOB’s secessionist agenda was informed by the “incessant hardship, lack of holistic development in the socio-economic landscape of Nigeria, lack of youth employment, corruption in high offices and economic regression.”

every sane person will see that this country is not well. the agenda is not a day old

He added that the agitation by IPOB, which, according to him, was founded in London in 2012 by a group of people from the South-South and South-East regions of the country, was in line with the United Nations Charter on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples ratified by African countries, including Nigeria.

every indigence has that genuine right.

In contrast to the counts of managing and assisting in the management of an unlawful society preferred against Kanu and two others, the Radio Biafra founder stated that IPOB, which the prosecution described as unlawful, was registered with the UN to pursue the rights of the people of Biafra.

He stated, “I can confirm that I, Nnamdi Kanu, is the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra worldwide as a legitimately and duly registered body at the United Nations pursuing the rights of a specific indigenous people, in this case, Biafra, to seek self determination according to the said charter.

IPOB is recognize world wide

“The reason for the formation of the Indigenous People of Biafra is to avail those referring to themselves as Biafrans the opportunity made available as a result of the United Nations declaration to seek the peaceful rebirth of Biafra in line with international law.”

Kanu, who is a son of a traditional ruler in Abia State, Sir I.O. Kanu, said he operated Radio Biafra, whose programmes “are designed to wake up the public from its slumber and address the issues of the time” because of his belief in free speech and freedom of expression.

He explained that the intended Biafra Republic comprised Enugu, Ebonyi, Abia, Imo, Anambra, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta states as well the Igbanke part of Edo State; Igala part of Kogi State and Idoma/Igede part of Edo State.

telling us the truth, biafra is not about igbo but bigger than igbo

Apart from Kanu, one of the two other defendants in the six counts filed by the Federal Government is a Field Maintenance Engineer, David Nwawuisi, charged with the responsibility of maintaining MTN masts in Enugu State.

The other defendant, Benjamin Madubugwu, was said to be living in the Ubilisiuzo, Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State, where he allegedly received custody of a container, housing transmitters, from Kanu.

this is no case

On December 23 during the accused persons’ appearance in court for their scheduled arraignment, Kanu refused to take his plea due to what he called his lack of confidence in the presiding judge, Justice Ahmed Mohammed.

thats true, the country is officially a lawless country

The judge promptly returned the case file to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta, for reassignment to another judge and the three accused persons were returned to the custody of the Department of State Services.

they dont have to delay on this

The fresh charges were filed against the three men barely 24 hours after Justice Adeniyi Ademola, in a ruling on Kanu’s bail application on December 17, ordered his unconditional release from DSS custody having been detained for about two months without any valid charges filed against him.

lawless society . the law must be supreme and not about useless pdp and apc

The PUNCH had reported that the Federal Government had alleged that transmitters for Radio Biafra, spreading secessionist agenda for carving out Biafra region from Nigeria, were found to be installed on MTN masts in Enugu and Anambra states between April and May 2015.

and its hard for them to snap it then remove it. its obvious our government is incompetent

No new date has been fixed for the arraignment of the accused persons.

the fear of the unknown

This still doesn't change what we know. Nnamdi Kanu is a terrorist and will be dealt with as one.

Permit me to also say that he is a bastard. And I stand by it. How can he refer to his fatherland as a zoo? His so called father is still alive and also a chief in the land. If the FG treats him like an animal, it is just fair anyway.

Little wonder it is alleged he is an Osu.
Osu is an outcast in igboland, for those that do not know.

Anybody who believe the rubbish apology is on his own.

Okay he made the said comment on 23,October,Why is it coming out today 30th December?

The fact is Kanu is winning in all the court cases,telling Me that he is apologizing now is totally baseless and falsehood.

let me remind you that biafra is older than nigeria thus nigeria can never be his fatherland. if a forcefully abducted child finalize he want to stay with his real father then you have to let him go in peace else he can do anything possible to go , including killing the impostor father

thank u since oct 23, kanu i know will look at death and spit on it. they just want to resist the moral of biafrans but its too late

d zoo govt's plan to disgrace n humiliate Kanu with concocted appology scam is lame. they should try harder. Yeye dey smell.

This post would never hit front page

the gullibility of nigerian youths to the lies coming out of the media in this regime is shocking. To even believe that story on how kanu was caught by the dss was the height of it.

Breaking news: Kanu begs for bleaching cream says his fundamental rights to bleach is being breached.

The zoo must fall like the walls of jericho. Even if kanu give up Biafra, there are thousand of activist who will be more proactive then him. I don't know why the yellobas want us to stay with them by force? Is it by force to be a Nigerian?
