Kanu Never Apologised To President Buhari —father, IPOB by henroe2k2(m): 6:18am On Dec 31, 2015
…Release Kanu now, right activist tells Buhari
By Anayo Okoli, Chimaobi Nwaiwu & Nwabueze Okonkwo
FATHER of detained Biafran activist, Nnamdi Kanu, His Royal Majesty,
Eze Israel Kanu, has denied reports that his detained son has apologised
to President Mohammadu Buhari for allegedly referring to him as a
terrorist.
Also, the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, dismissed the same report,
saying that their leader had at no time apologised to President Buhari.
Similarly, Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of
Biafra, MASSOB, has described as completely false, the calculated and
systematic attempt by agents of Federal Government to discredit IPOB
and MASSOB with the claim that Kanu has apologised over his comments
against some Nigerians.
MASSOB leader, Mr. Uchenna Madu, in a statement, said, the news in
the media that Nnamdi Kanu had apologised to Buhari was a complete
falsehood and a calculated and systematic attempt by agents of the
Federal Government to discredit, disorganize and frustrate the agitation
for actualization of aBiafran State.
Eze Kanu said his son’s alleged apology was the handiwork of the
enemies of the struggles for Biafran emancipation, pointing out that his
son had never regretted his actions in the cause liberating his
marginalized people.
According to the monarch, who spoke with newsmen in Umuahia, Abia
State, his son could not have apologised to anybody since he was fighting
a just cause and has not violated any law to warrant any apologies to
anybody.
Fabrications
Eze Kanu said, however, that he was not surprised at such fabrications,
and maintained that he would never advise his son to give up his fight
for a sovereign State of Biafra since it was the wishes of the people.
He reinforced his unflinching support for his son, who he noted was
championing a just cause. He advised leaders to stop trying to project his
son in bad light through the internet, and accused some media houses of
collaborating with the Federal Government to portray his son in a bad
light and also frustrate the agitation for independent Biafra.
He appealed to President Buhari to free his son, insisting that his son has
done nothing to warrant his unlawful detention even against the
judgments of courts.
IPOB in a statement, yesterday in Umuahia through its spokesman, Emma
Powerful, dismissed the media report as “a blatant lie and cheap
propaganda by its sponsors to create the wrong impression that Kanu is
backing out of the Biafran project.”
IPOB accused the Federal Government of planting the said report to
dampen the morale of Kanu’s followers and other Biafran agitators.
Tissue of lies
“It is an insult to the entire Biafran Republic for anyone to expect any
apology from Kanu over his activities towards facilitating Biafra’s
autonomy. The purported report that Kanu had apologised to Buhari over
Biafra is not only a tissue of lies but a lame attempt by the enemies of
Biafra to cause disaffection among the agitators.
“This latest trick is nothing but part of the grand design by the Federal
Government to blackmail our leader and weaken the confidence of IPOB
members in him.
“We are not surprised at this concocted trash because government is
already intimidated by Kanu’s rising popularity and following among the
good people of Biafra. Kanu will rather prefer to die in detention than
apologise to anybody over his efforts to actualize self-determination for
the oppressed people of Biafra,” it added.
Also, IPOB National Coordinator, Mr. Chidiebere Onwudiwe, dismissed the
publication, describing same as “the machinations of the Department of
State Service, DSS, to save its face having been disgraced by the
courts with granting of Kanu bail.
“The publication was totally false and should be ignored by the public. No
amount of intimidation, harassment, torture, killings, arrest and blackmail
can make Kanu apologise for anything. Nothing will ever make us to
stop the agitation for the actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra.
“DSS is not sincere, if they have respect for the constitution of Nigeria,
they would have released Kanu as directed by the courts, instead, they
are looking for new charges to jail him, but they will fail again, as they
have discovered that they will not make any progress in their quest to
jail Kanu. They are now looking for soft-landing to chicken out of the
case with the claim that Kanu is apologising, a claim that does not hold
water.”
IPOB urged media to beware of the false claims by DSS, saying that
“Kanu is not disturbed in any way over his long incarceration, his spirit is
very high and he will be received like a hero he is, any day they are
tired of holding him and decides to release him.
“Kanu is in detention for us, we are here for him, DSS should stop
embarrassing itself with the false information they are churning out to
the public. If they are honest in what they are claiming about Kanu’s
apology, they should publish the copy of the said apology as an advert in
the newspapers so that the world can see. If they say they culled it
from the statement he wrote in DSS detention, how then did it become
an apology to people.”
Madu added: “The agitation for the actualization of Biafra has gained
international prominence and sympathy even before Nnamdi Kanu’s arrest
and detention, and his current detention has further strengthened the
agitation, so this latest move and campaign of calumny by enemies and
oppressors of Biafrans is a sign that they are jittery, frustrated and are
afraid of the fast rising and global acceptance of Biafrans struggle for
actualization of state of Biafra.
A true Biafran
“MASSOB and IPOB shall never be discouraged, frustrated, disorganized,
dislocated or relent on the non-violent Biafran actualization because of
this false statement credited to Nnamdi Kanu. Mazi Kanu as a true
Biafran can never compromise the integrity, confidence and trust of
Biafra freedom fighters no matter the condition, subjection or oppression
by DSS and Nigerian government.
“This Nigerian Government latest move to discredit IPOB and MASSOB
has propelled us to redouble our efforts and strategies on Biafra
agitation, we shall intensify our non-violence approach as MASSOB and
IPOB march ahead for Biafra actualization.”
Also, human rights activist and Archdeacon of Oyi Anglican
Archdeaconry in Anambra State, Venerable Joseph Nweke has advised
President Buhari to release Nnamdi Kanu without further delay.
He said Kanu’s continued detention due to disobedience to court orders
could be likened to the Biblical Pharoah, who refused to allow the
Israelites to leave Egypt and also the Biblical St. John, the Apostle, who
could not be killed by the enemies, even after they threw him into hot
oil.
Wrath of God
Venerable Nweke, who spoke at St. Mark’s Anglican Church, Ogbunike in
Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State, during a church service
to mark St. John the Apostles Day, specifically called on Buhari not to
harden his heart to avoid attracting the wrath of God like
Nebuccadnezzar did and was turned into a beast as a punishment.
Nweke, who is also the Director of Civil and Political Affairs, Anambra
State chapter, said he had gradually followed the charges preferred
against Kanu logically and came to a conclusion that he did not do
anything to warrant his continued detention against all the orders of
various courts of competent jurisdiction.
He contended that even if Kanu had a case to answer in the law courts,
he should first be released from the detention while his trial in court
continued.
“This is a voice of reason. I foresee a situation where God visited His
anger on Buhari if he failed to release Kanu from the detention. So, I
am advising Mr. President to release him in order to escape that wrath,”
he said.

the boy personally wrote the apology like we used to do those days in secondary school when we offended a teacher who didn't like flogging students. so his family and friends should live with it and move on.

So in essence these people are saying that Kanu apologising for calling the President an evil paedophile frustrates the biafran struggle? You cannot achieve secession without insulting the President?

Ego has always been the Achilles heel of the Igbos.

You know what? An apology is not out of place in the african society but it's not applicable in this political situation. Why? You Apcists and buharist desperately want a moral victory over Biafrans, so that you can cheer at them but Biafrans remain adamant that they will rather die that polish your battered ego.

Kanu will apologize to Buhari if his car mistakenly hits one of Buhari's cows but to earn a political apology so you can claim political victory over the generation of Biafrans to come? No? Biafran will ask you to bring death instead. Go and read about Okonkwo the Biafran in Achebe Things fall apart.

Following your logic of false victory over Kanu there shouldn't have been the current desperate attempts making the headlines in crook media houses laying claims to phantom revelations which ought to have graced frontpages over two months ago.
