Press Statement:
 
NNAMDI KANU SACKS LAWYERS FOR SPEAKING AGAINST NIGER DELTA AVENGERS  AND MISLEADING  THE PUBLIC OVER NEGOTIATIONS WITH GOVERNMENT
 
Following the press conference earlier today by our legal team, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Worldwide has been reliably and incontrovertibly informed that some of the utterances of their defence lawyers were made without consultation. These utterances border on negotiations and some were against the Niger Delta Avengers. As  as a result of this unsolicited and unguarded utterances, the defence team has been sacked and will be replaced. The IPOB leader wishes to state categorically that the only thing we are open to is negotiations that will lead to modalities and processes to restore Biafra and avert further hardships on the people of Nigeria who have been under bondage since his kidnapping and illegal detention.
The Niger Delta Avengers arose because of the inherent injustice in Nigeria as manifested in the disregard to the rule of law when Buhari refused to obey court order to unconditionally release our leader, Nnamdi Kanu. We spoke the mind of our leader when we stated for record purposes that IPOB and Niger Delta Avengers share the same ideology of freedom for Biafra. Anybody publicly dissociating IPOB from Niger Delta Avengers is a mortal enemy of IPOB family worldwide under the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu. Let it be known that as long as Buhari and Daura continue to tamper with Nnamdi Kanu‘s defence team through bribery, inducements and intimidation, IPOB will keep on changing the team.
For the records, the press conference by the now-sacked  legal team was about bringing to public knowledge the foolishness of the Department  of State Services (DSS) in bringing treasonable felony charges against our leader and the lack of evidence thereof. The press conference was NEVER about negotiations because should negotiations start, IPOB will notify the world about it. Right now, we are not negotiating and will not negotiate until existing court orders ordering the release of Nnamdi Kanu are obeyed.
 
In the interim, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor will continue to act as lead counsel until other counsels are appointed who will not sell their souls to the devil. Biafra or death!!!

what was he thinking when he asked for arms to fight a sovreign state?
Right to self-defense. If only we had those arms, am sure that those 76 persons that Buhari's trained and equiped Fulani herdsmen murdered at Nimo, Enugu state would still be alive today. Nnamdi Kanu truly saw tomorrow that knew that niGERia made a mistake by electing a terrorist president in Buhari and thus the call for self-defense makes inevitable. If only people at Agatu, Benue had harkened to the voice of NK when he was crying in the wilderness, they won't have lost over 500 lives + their ancestral homes to Buhari's fulani herdsmen.

Buhari Implementing ISIS Ideology?

By Chuks Ikedigwe


In an article published in The New York Times in the last quarter of 2014 and serialized in several other publications, Major General Micheal K. Nagata, the Special Operations commander for the United States in the Middle East while making confidential comments, admitted that he had hardly begun figuring out the Islamic State’s appeal. “We have not defeated the idea,’’ he said. ‘’We do not even understand the ISIS idea/ideology before now.’’

In the past years, President Obama has referred to the Islamic State, variously, as ‘’not Islamic’’. Statement that reflected CONFUSION about the group, and have contributed to significant strategic errors about seeking to end the great harm that the group posed to humanity earlier.

It’s in seeking to end the confusion about the initial errors about the ideology of ISIS (its aim, mission and ambition) that led to Major General Nagata outlining these Ideologies. This incidentally formed the basis of the extensive investigation and research carried out by PETE HOEKSTRA who incidentally is a senior fellow at the Investigative Project on Terrorism in Washington DC. The investigation by Hoekstra culminated in him warning in an article published recently in Wall Street Journal that ‘’BUHARI IS NIGERIA’s PROBLEM, NOT ITS SOLUTION’’

This timely warning according to a credible source at the Investigative Project on Terrorism is based on overwhelming evidences that Buhari’s government is implementing ISIS ideology in Nigeria. A country that prides itself as being a secular state.

The source will however enumerate and compare few of these ideologies to prove the case against the government.

AIMS & AMBITIONS
ISIS makes no secret that its ultimate ambition is to create a Global Caliphate secured through a global war – To what end its speaks off ‘’remaining and expanding’’ its existing hold over territories it has captured.

In same vein, Buhari has made no secret his ultimate ambition to drive away indigenous people (mostly Christians) from their indigenous communities and occupy through the activities of his fellow Fulani herdsmen. ‘’Since Buhari became the president, the Fulani herdsmen have developed a mentality of WE OWN THE NATION SINCE ONE OF US IS NOW IN POWER. This 4th most dangerous terrorist group in the world has become so emboldened by the tacit support of Buhari also known as the African Hitler Muhammadu Buhari (AHMB). The AHMB’s government simply looks the other way while these killings, driving away and occupying of these indigenous communities continues. However, the government even sometimes boldly makes some flimsy excuses on why it can’t afford to stop the rampaging marauders ’’ the source said.

STRATEGY OF PROVOCATION
‘’Despite the enormous firepower, the resource and technology the USA and its allies can bring to the battle field, ISIS is doing all it can to drag the West into a broader battle. It gruesome murder of American hostages was part of this strategy of provocation; so are their continued attack in France and other soft target attacks around the world. With this provocation strategy “THEY WANT US TO BECOME EMOTIONAL’’. The source added

‘’In Comparison you will discover that this strategy of provocation is equally being deployed by the Buhari administration, it aims to make their victims to become emotional and retaliate so as to give him an excuse to go on rampage of slaughtering innocent citizens. He fully deployed this strategy against the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) by murdering harmless protesting youths and those who have gathered to pay their respect to their fallen heroes during the recent Biafran Heroes day anniversary at Nkpor on 30th May, 2016 leading to the killing of over 140 defenseless Biafran youths and maiming of many others. The good thing however, is that IPOB has adopted our recommendation and made it clear that it will never be provoked to arm struggle when it is not yet Chukwu Okike Abiama’s appointed time. We are carefully studying these events’’ The source quipped.

ERADICATING OF CHRISTIANS AND SHIA MUSLIMS
‘’ISIS ideology as a militant Sunni Muslim group is also fixated with purifying Islam, and that means eradicating Christians and Shia Muslims. ISIS has already shown extreme cruelty towards Shiites, most notably been the slaughtering of more than 1,500 Iraqi air force cadets in Tikrit in June 2014 amongst others’’. The source recalled

‘’On the other hand, AHMB’s government in following the footstep of ISIS leader, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi has even shown more cruelty in dealing with the Shia Muslims in the country. Most notably been the slaughtering of over 1,100 Shia Muslims in an operation lasting a whole 3 days from 12 -14 December, 2015 over a mere accusation of not allowing rite of passage to the government’s Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai . Christians are equally not left out in Buhari’s cruelty as his Fulani herdsmen keeps attacking and slaughtering Christians whilst the government keeps making one excuse or the other of the existence of one ECOWAS Protocol that would not allow it stop the killings of those its supposed to protect’’ said the disappointed source.

EMPLOYING THE WE & THEM DIVISON STRATEGY
One of ISIS most dangerous ideology is the embroiling of USA and the West in a land war according to the source, ISIS reasons this would give Muslims no choice but to come to the defense of the Caliphate ‘’the we’’, setting up a global confrontation with ‘’the them?’’ Noted the source

The source equally believes that this ideology was responsible for Buhari’s government cleverly creating the 97 percenters versus the 5 percenters division in the country thereby leading to a division where none had existed. ‘’In embroiling the country in the 97% vs 5% division, Buhari had reasoned that the former will have no choice but to come to his defense whenever the need arises. Why a leader in a democracy will be engrossed with such a division creating strategy is what I can’t fathom’’ wondered the source.

WANTS TO SEEN TO BE FIGHTING FOR MUSLIM MINORITIES
ISIS sees itself as coming to the rescue of Muslim minorities the world over. ISIS claims ‘’we don’t enjoy life until we liberate the Muslims everywhere, and until we retrieve Al-Quds (Jerusalem and regain Al-Andalus (Spain) and Conquer Rome’’.

‘’This must have been what Buhari’s government had in mind when it advocated for the right to self-determination to be accorded the people of Palestine and those of Western Sahara who are seen as Muslim minorities before the UN in 2015 while turning around to accuse that those advocating for same right in Biafra (populated by Christians) of treason’’ Concluded the source.

The good news according to the source is that more and more people and governments of the world are becoming increasingly AWARE that BUHARI IS NOT NIGERIA’s SOLUTION BUT HER REAL PROBLEM. The source is emphatic that the coming days will witness international public outcry and anti Buhari exposures. When this starts happening don’t forget that you heard it first here.

The information reaching me from the office of the AGF is that even the FG is about losing grip on her continued hold on Nnamdi Kanu due to pressure from various quarters. FG is most likley going to announce: We have no case against the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu in the coming days. The release of the coordinators is a prelude to that announcement. However, the source claims that just like the "proverbial FLY that don't hear word that follow SHIT to be buried" that Dullard of Duara (Buhari) is expected to do like the "Proverbial Fly I no dey hear word" first.

IPOB jubilates in Onitsha as FG releases detained members



By Nwabueze Okonkwo
ONITSHA – Fresh hope, Thursday rose for members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB as the federal government of Nigeria, through the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice released all their members who were arrested by various security agencies in Aba, Abia state, during their prayer rally in February, this year and clamped into detention camps and prison custody.

Consequently, the release of their members threw the IPOB members into jubilation in various parts of Onitsha, Anambra state, although the jubilation did not take place publicly as they did when a court granted their leader, Nnamdi Kanu bail, sometime last year.

In a press statement issued to newsmen Thursday in Onitsha, IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful who confirmed that their members have been released, said all IPOB members worldwide under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the Director of Radio Biafra were commending the Attorney-General of the Federation, AGF and all those who have common sense to understand that all those arrested in Aba must be released.

Powerful contended that the release of their members was a good omen since the plight of IPOB is only for the restoration of Biafra and not to take over the rulership of Nigeria from the incumbent Muhammadu Buhari-led Nigerian government officials.

Lolz

See the way this flatron is foaming in the mouth over a politician that never benefited him or ever benefit him? If you like, jump into the lagoon when you see Jonathan and buhari together in the same political party tomorrow.

Read excerpts below and show me the regret he was talking about.

He wrote: “Truth of the matter is that I would have voted anyone that could speak two words of English against Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and that’s strictly based on the amount of greed and selfishness we witnessed from members of his (Jonathan’s) administration in the 6 years that he sat on the rock.

“I have to sincerely apologise at this point that in expressing my opinion in my last post which was primarily to clear the air about who I campaigned, supported or rooted for or didn’t, I was disrespectful to a man I have nothing but respect.

“The last President may have had some wrong advisers and consequently decisions were made that will eventually impact on the economy, however I am sorry if it came across as an attack on the man Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

“We all desired a CHANGE, majority voted for it, now we have it, it is definitely a process, a tough one because I know the hustle is real…believe me, I know.



So, where is the regret you are referring to?
Are you that poor in english that you can't comprehend short and simple sentences? Wait! Is it a case of not studying English comprehension in school?. The last time I checked, it is history that is not being offered in niGERian schools not English. So you can do yourself a very big favour by enrolling for English class during his summer holiday. Try it and thank me later.

Basketmouth apologizes over attack on Goodluck Jonathan

Veteran Nigerian comedian, Basketmouth, has withdrawn his statement on the state of the nation, apologizing to former president, Goodluck Jonathan for disrespecting him.

In his last Instagram post, the comedian debunked rumors that he was one of the advocates for the emergence of Buhari’s administration.

He aired his stance on his alleged involvement in politics.

He said he never campaigned for President Buhari or any other politician (including former president, Jonathan).

He wrote: “Truth of the matter is that I would have voted anyone that could speak two words of English against Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and that’s strictly based on the amount of greed and selfishness we witnessed from members of his (Jonathan’s) administration in the 6 years that he sat on the rock.

“I have said it numerous times that I am not a politician hence I try not to dabble in politics. However I think a few people interpret crying out against injustice by the one as campaign for the other.”

But barely 24 hours after airing his stance, Basketmouth apologized for appearing as though ‘disrespectful’ to Jonathan.

He, however, retracted his statement, stating he has ‘nothing but respect’ for the former president.

He wrote: “I have to sincerely apologise at this point that in expressing my opinion in my last post which was primarily to clear the air about who I campaigned, supported or rooted for or didn’t, I was disrespectful to a man I have nothing but respect.

“The last President may have had some wrong advisers and consequently decisions were made that will eventually impact on the economy, however I am sorry if it came across as an attack on the man Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

“We all desired a CHANGE, majority voted for it, now we have it, it is definitely a process, a tough one because I know the hustle is real…believe me, I know.

“I trust it can only get better, let’s just try to be patient,” he added.

Blame IBB for Nigeria’s economic recession – FG
Latest NewsAug 9, 2016

EUCLID MYKE, Abuja

THE Minister of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Chief Audu Ogbeh yesterday revealed that the present economic crunch and near recession currently ravaging the country was created during the regime of former  military President Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.

The minister who was speaking in a special town hall meeting organized by the Ministry of Information in Collaboration with The Alumni Association of The National Institute (AANI) in Abuja maintained that the present economic woes could be traced back to the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) introduced during the administration of Babangida.
Ogbeh further declared that government is aware of the degree of hardship that is ravaging the country and is working on a progressive and sustainable path to ensure that the economy recovers as soon as possible.
He said, “We have heard of terrible stories of parent using their children as collateral for food without intending to get them back. All these we heard. The present situation didn’t just happened, it was bound to come and I can say it is dated back to 1986 when we adopted the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP), Ogbeh insisted.
Taking his audience through the memory lane, he explained that although many right thinking Nigerians and crack economists were opposed to the adoption of SAP, the IBB government paid deaf ear to all explanations, insisted and foisted SAP on Nigerians to cushion the effect of the International Monetary Fund, IMF loan which he had earlier obtained and the consequent devaluation of the naira upon which the loan was granted by the Fund.
Ogbeh disclosed that while other developing countries like Indian and Malaysia rejected the move, it is evident that they are better for it as they have become food sufficient nations and industrial tigers while Nigeria is still heavily food and technology dependent and spends as much as $20bn annually on food importation.
However, Ogbeh said that on assumption of office, the Muhammadu Buhari government met a lot of defective policies and challlenges from the previous administration, saying that government decided to deepen and change some of these policies so that the economy will regenerate.
In the agricultural sector, the minister said that government has invested heavily in agriculture through procurement of improved seedlings and through subsidy on fertilizer so that there will be improved yield while adding that government is committed to the establishment of ranches to improve meat and milk yields from cows as well as eliminate farmers and herdsmen persistent clashes.
He said, “We are about to restructure the Bank of Agriculture, every farmer would be a shareholder, we want to bring the interest rate to as close to 5% because we have to decide what we eat, people would criticize us for that, but that is what they do in Europe, there is no European country where interest rate are higher than 3.5%. to Agriculture.
 “We embarked on the new soil map of this country, which has produced new blend of fertilizer; I want to ask everyone of you here never ever to go to your farm and apply MPK 15, 15, 16 no piece of soil in this country can absorb it, you are destroying the soil and diminishing your yield. It would soon be published in a booklet for every Nigeria to have the kind of fertilizer suitable for all crops in all state of the Federation”.
