Nnamdi Kanu: The Latest Clown In Town by uche87(m): 12:20pm On Sep 17, 2019
Let me start this article with a very short story about a personal experience. One day, I was at a bar at the Festac Town area of Lagos State in 2016 watching a football match when a potbellied full-figured man passionately unloading some empty bottles of alcohol started analyzing politics with his friends in a very distracting tone. His voice was so reverberating, and he reiterated his views with so much confidence. Gradually, he started to win over the attention of everybody including me. The latest way of winning or dominating arguments in such places is to shout on top of your voice and remain defiant even if you are not making sense. It works like magic.

"The solution to the problems of Nigeria is to gather all our leaders and set them on fire, burn them to ashes!" he echoed.

His friends whose eyes and brains must have been failing them gradually due to alcohol intake cheered him. As I walked home from the bar after the match that night, I thought about his extreme 'revolutionary solution' and disagreed fundamentally. For every corrupt politician that dies in Nigeria, there is a competent replacement amongst us, in fact, we have a clone or a replica. The Nigerian State is a reflection of its people. My usual prayer is that God should save Nigeria from Nigerians. A perfect example of such a cantankerous figure masquerading around as a freedom fighter, history maker and game-changer is Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The South-easterners are very religious people; predominantly Christians and I believe they are special in the sight of God. Confirmation of my view is the failure of the secession cause of Nnamdi Kanu under the banner of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB. If Biafra had worked, Nnamdi Kanu in the bid to reap the 'fruit of his labour' would have forced his way to the driver's seat and a fatal accident would have been the case. Biafra and South Sudan would have been competing for the best case study for why secession is never the solution to the challenges of a minority group in a country. I trust my colleagues in academia to jump on it and win awards with the research.

Nnamdi Kanu is a man of theatrics and he never fails to entertain. My problem is that his jokes are becoming too expensive and they have been taken too far. The world has seen 'good comedians' in politics. While some have failed, others have gone to achieve great things. The 41-year old president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelensky was a comedian and actor who brought his role in a movie to reality, beating a sitting president at the polls this year to gain power. He is presently reforming his country and commendably secured the release of some Ukrainian sailors detained by Russia. Others with clownish antics are President Donald Trump, Prime Minister Boris Johnson and maybe President Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines. The 51-year old Nnamdi Kanu who has secured himself with a British passport is far below the class of these world leaders. He seems to be reading the playbook of a former Iraqi diplomat and politician, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf nicknamed Comical Ali who came to worldwide prominence around the 2003 invasion of Iraq. He successfully did a 'Lai Mohammed-like job' while he was the Iraqi Information Minister under Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, acting as a spokesperson for the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party and Saddam's government.

Nnamdi Kanu is quite smart but I must say he isn't smart enough. He understands how fragmented the Nigerian society is due to identity crisis. He knows how much we all play the victim card; every Nigeria feels cheated and has a justification for every unscrupulous act. He also knows trust in government is considerably low due to corruption over the years. He understands that there is always an information gap coupled with a high level of illiteracy and ineffective educational system. The loopholes are well exploited by him and he has been feeding fat on them making money from his sympathizers. Using the power of the new media, Kanu smartly leveraged on the secrecy of the medical treatment of President Muhammadu Buhari in 2017 at a London hospital to announce that he was dead. As his proclamation started to gather momentum, Buhari surfaced although looking like he just rose from the grave. Nnamdi Kanu must have felt disappointed but accepting defeat was not an option. He later went on to announce that Buhari was actually dead and the man that is the leader of Nigeria is one Jubril Al Sudani from Sudan, a body double in simple terms.

Kanu went on to make a series of YouTube videos buttressing his views and the blogs gave him the needed audience. The media system in Nigeria is so flawed and you have everybody competing for traffic and advertising revenue at all costs. Nobody really pays attention to credibility anymore and Kanu became an instant beneficiary. He pushed that Jubril narrative until it gained not only national attention but became a global issue.

The Vice President Atiku Abubakar must have been enjoying the hit on Buhari when Kanu attacked him and claimed he is a Cameroonian who isn't constitutionally qualified to be the president of Nigeria. That joke of a claim later ended in court with Buhari's lawyers alluding to that view probably as delay tactics.

Nnamdi Kanu urged IPOB supporters never to participate in the electoral process but in the last minute made a U-turn. Rumours have it that some political stakeholders cut a moneyed deal with him. According to analysts, Kanu's initial campaign for the boycott of elections accounted largely for the low turnout of voters during the 2018 presidential election in the South-east. He threatened most South-eastern governors with political annihilation but all that failed and his morale dropped. Kanu faded and started to feel irrelevant but later gained resurgence in a more dramatic and daring fashion.

His present charade is taking 'Biafra to the world'. He announced recently that he spoke to the European Union parliament in Brussels, Belgium and circulated his speech among mainstream media platforms. The Punch, Vanguard and The Guardian brazenly published it without due diligence. Till date, there is no video of Kanu meeting with the EU leaders, no photo-ops, no details of the event on the EU website and no information about the proceedings of such a gathering. In fact, the EU parliament never convened on the 10th of September which is the said date he allegedly delivered his speech. One wonders when the EU whose scope is largely economical with a focus on Europe has now developed an interest in local politics in Nigeria.

When questions were asked, his supporters photoshopped a picture of him purportedly delivering a speech at the EU parliament. The quack job that can't even convince a blind fool looked him he was making a rap song presentation on the floor of the parliament. Kanu's camp went on to further mock his audience by releasing a video of him delivering an informal speech outside the EU headquarters. Isn't that loopy?

The latest move is that he will be visiting the United Nations office in Geneva, Switzerland. As usual, the details are very unclear. The UN whose body language hasn't favoured reasonable secessionists like the Catalonians has maintained a deafening silence while Kanu's team continues the lap of honour over a phantom achievement that could be better imagined than actually realized. IPOB's reasons for the unclear details is to deter any form of sabotage by the Nigerian government. One might be forced to think Kanu might be going to pay a personal visit to his friend who works at the UN and is using that avenue to hoodwink the public.

My only concern is that some people actually buy these works of fiction and they might be contributing their hard-earned money to fund it as Kanu has admitted. Kanu is really blessed with such an easy life!

All of a sudden, Nnamdi Kanu's father rumoured to be missing and probably dead has returned quietly to his palace two years after it was invaded by the military. One wonders when all these lies will end. Will Kanu ever run out of lies? When will his supporters realize that he is just a 'political entrepreneur' exploiting the system ridden with despondency?

Kanu's jokes are actually not funny anymore. He needs to be stopped through proactive measures to protect his followers from him. With someone of Kanu's nature on the prowl, nobody will take Nigeria seriously. An intelligent and vigilant foreigner who encounters him will see more danger looming through his deceitful eyes.

Mr lecturer thanks for your lectures..I will call you a serious fellow the day you will be brave enough to write on the insincerity of the Fulani oligarchy in Nigeria..I will take you as a sound human and nota demented fellow the day you will write and ask questions on why has the Nigerian justice system has not convicted one,just one Fulani maruderes that has killed nearly 20 thousand Nigerians and boko haram that has killed close to 50. Thousand all this reflecting more than Nigerian civilian casualties during the civil war and yet non has been prosicuted and jailed.
If you don't write on this above mentioned injustice in the land and you think KANU is your prtobken and more dangerous to you than them,then may you never pass your PhD course cause your type will continue to keep our students in the dark than telling them the truth..if a man could be brave enough to liberate his people from an obvious dubious and non progressive entity like Nigeria and what cowards like you could do is to sit and write thrash about the same man who is have enough to do what your lilly livered heart cannot do is insanity behind the pen...you find it convenient to attack KANU cos its a state recognized insult but the real enemy of the people are walking free and you are afraid of the sowore,pastor sulieman, and every other brave Nigerians treatment...bloody coward.

Re: Nnamdi Kanu: The Latest Clown In Town by gidgiddy: 1:23pm On Sep 17, 2019
Whoever wrote this made a lot of mistake.

Mistake 1: Kanu said that Atiku is from Cameroon, he never said anything about Atiku's legitimacy to be president of Nigeria. It has since been proven that the Adamawa area that Atiku comes from was once in Cameroon and only became part of Nigeria in 1961 after independence

Mistake 2:
Kanu never said anything about going to address the European parliament. What Kanu said in his tweet was "I’m glad to accept the invitation of a few MEPs to address the burning issue of IPOB agitation and what a NEW BIAFRA means for Africa. I look forward to leading IPOB in Europe to the historic encounter. Venue: EU Parliament Building, Brussels". Kanu clearly stated that a few MEP's invited him to Brussels to address them on the Biafran issue. The same mischief makers who photo shopped Kanu with a woman in a hotel room now did the same thing to Kanu at the European parliament knowing fully well that wasn't there to address the entire parliament

Mistake 3: Kanu is not a secessionist going to the UN headquarters in Geneva. The UN doesn't entertain secessionist. Kanu is a "sepratist" going to the UN headquarters and article 1 of the UN charter, which Nigeria is a signatory to, Grant's all people the right to agitate of self determination/ separation.

Mistake 4:
The writer showed how childish he is by saying that Kanu's father has returned 2 years after the military invasion of his residence of his home. The writer does not care that he belongs to a country and democracy where the military just get up and invade a persons house, where no war exists, shoot up the place. He does not care that his government tried to use the military to commit state sponsored assassination and terrorism, he does not care about this brazen show of military rascality, impunity and total disregard for the rule of law by the government. What is far more important for him is that Kanu lied about his father surviving the attack?

I tire for some people

Let me start this article with a very short story about a personal experience. One day, I was at a bar at the Festac Town area of Lagos State in 2016 watching a football match when a potbellied full-figured man passionately unloading some empty bottles of alcohol started analyzing politics with his friends in a very distracting tone. His voice was so reverberating, and he reiterated his views with so much confidence. Gradually, he started to win over the attention of everybody including me. The latest way of winning or dominating arguments in such places is to shout on top of your voice and remain defiant even if you are not making sense. It works like magic.

"The solution to the problems of Nigeria is to gather all our leaders and set them on fire, burn them to ashes!" he echoed.

Confirmation of my view is the failure of the secession cause of Nnamdi Kanu under the banner of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

Biafra and South Sudan would have been competing for the best case study for why secession is never the solution to the challenges of a minority group in a country. I trust my colleagues in academia to jump on it and win awards with the research.

Nnamdi Kanu is a man of theatrics and he never fails to entertain. My problem is that his jokes are becoming too expensive and they have been taken too far. The world has seen 'good comedians' in politics. While some have failed, others have gone to achieve great things. The 41-year old president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelensky was a comedian and actor who brought his role in a movie to reality, beating a sitting president at the polls this year to gain power. He is presently reforming his country and commendably secured the release of some Ukrainian sailors detained by Russia. Others with clownish antics are President Donald Trump, Prime Minister Boris Johnson and maybe President Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines. The 51-year old Nnamdi Kanu who has secured himself with a British passport is far below the class of these world leaders. He seems to be reading the playbook of a former Iraqi diplomat and politician, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf nicknamed Comical Ali who came to worldwide prominence around the 2003 invasion of Iraq. He successfully did a 'Lai Mohammed-like job' while he was the Iraqi Information Minister under Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, acting as a spokesperson for the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party and Saddam's government.

Nnamdi Kanu is quite smart but I must say he isn't smart enough. He understands how fragmented the Nigerian society is due to identity crisis. He knows how much we all play the victim card; every Nigeria feels cheated and has a justification for every unscrupulous act.

He understands that there is always an information gap coupled with a high level of illiteracy and ineffective educational system. The loopholes are well exploited by him and he has been feeding fat on them making money from his sympathizers.

As his proclamation started to gather momentum, Buhari surfaced although looking like he just rose from the grave. Nnamdi Kanu must have felt disappointed but accepting defeat was not an option. He later went on to announce that Buhari was actually dead and the man that is the leader of Nigeria is one Jubril Al Sudani from Sudan, a body double in simple terms.

Kanu went on to make a series of YouTube videos buttressing his views and the blogs gave him the needed audience. The media system in Nigeria is so flawed and you have everybody competing for traffic and advertising revenue at all costs. Nobody really pays attention to credibility anymore and Kanu became an instant beneficiary. He pushed that Jubril narrative until it gained not only national attention but became a global issue.

All I can say is just like awolowo the afonja verbal warrior hero cried to the northerners during biafran war that if they allow biafra succeed in separating from Nigeria them afonja will be the next to separate, every afonja is genuinely worried and scared of the possibility of biafran secession, that's why they try all the can to write trash about ipob and their leader to console themselves

Just like the afonja op with an igbo name, uche87 all afonja's wish they were biafrans grin

We will keep caning his followers unappealing flat brains untill we achieve the all important sense, no matter how little it is.

Together, we will restore sense on every !POB...

Don't give up on them!

Majority of them are still redeemable.

We can do it. Yes we can!

I am Ibo and I agree with what this guy is saying. Even though I am not a beloever in the Nigeria Project and I support IPOB, Massob and others in their actualization of Biafra, I am not proud of Nnamdi Kanu as a leader, and I am sceptical of the sanity and intelligence of some of the more rabid IPOB supporters.

Martin Luther King had a phrase he used in describing his tactics, "tense but not ugly". I think IPOB shoud try to adopt that as well. Incidents like the Ekweremadu assault and the whole Jubril Aminu thing dont seem to be helping out. Also like the author, I seriously doubt Iboland is ready for self-governance. In 1967 we were, but now, with the balkanisation of the Eastern Region, with the dishonest politicians we have bred, with the culture of failure we have learnt from other Nigerians, Iboland has to be very careful cos Biafra might be a nightmare not a dreamland.

I think that we Ibo have to elevate the agitation of Biafra to agitation for a better Iboland. We have to hold ourselves and our communities to better standard. Afterall, we want Biafra so that we can have better lives so we should as ourselves, what are we doing TODAY to get that better life while we wait. There is a saying "The world belongs to him who hustles as he waits"

The very day the clown Nnamdi Kanu sets foot on Nigerian soil will be his last day on Earth as a free man. He will be bundled away to an underground DSS cell where he will be kept incommunicado for the duration of his trial, after which he will receive 60 years with hard labor. That will teach any upcoming charlatan not to mess with Naija
