One of the persons that contested for the throne of Obi of Onitsha, Chief Godwin Odukwe, has said that the leader of IPOB, and Director, Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu personally put himself into the trouble he is currently going through, saying that he does not have the right to breach the norms and the unity of Nigeria.

The Onitsha chief spoke as Nigerians continue to react to the continued incarceration of Kanu, despite the protests for his release, in South East and South South states by pro Biafra agitators.

Speaking during the celebration of his 50 years of marriage, the Obi stool contestant, who is still pursuing his case for the stool in the court, said he felt very bad over the agitation for Biafra actualization.

“I personally believe that Mr. Kanu personally got himself incarcerated, his coming back to Nigeria, the abusive words and speech by him through Radio Biafra was unnecessary and uncalled for, it amounts to fanning the embers of war.

“I feel very bad over their agitation for a sovereign state of Biafra. Igbo suffered during the war, younger men who never knew what war looks like, are the people who have started talking about war by agitation for sovereign state of Biafra,” he said.

Admitting that the South East zone was marginalized in all ramifications, he advised that dialogue and round-table discussion should be used, instead of being confrontational over the poor condition of the zone.

Chief Odukwe stressed the need for the Igbo to be at the same level with other ethnic groups and states, adding that the infrastructure decay was a source of worry that prompted the agitation.

“We have to be at par and on equal level with other parts of the federation. Look at the condition of South East roads, this country belongs to all of us, the money in this country belongs to all of us, and therefore, we should not be going through the marginalization we are seeing now,” he said.

He thanked God for making it possible for him to attain the level of celebrating golden jubilee, adding that it was achieved through prayer, perseverance, love and hard work.

Though Namdi Kanu broke the law, he should be released and promised arrest and immediate detention should he set foot in Nigeria again. Emotion has blinded everyone to any objectivity right now and nothing can be gained further by keeping him in detention. Nigeria should work exile as a means of punitive action in the constitution.

Toba ko iwaju si e taaa: to ba ko eyin si e taa: to ba ku iwo nikan, tun ero ara re pa...

A word is enough for the wise.

The penalty is death!

this prophecy by Nostradamus 400 years ago

A Powerful
Prince will arise in the world at the Trigger
of the Gun. He will be the envy of other
princes. They (the other princes) will try to
subdue his rise but all will be a failure

I understand you're just teasing and being mischievous, however if he indeed died in detention, he would turn into Cause celebre at the very least, which would be unfortunate.

And what would be unfortunate about that. Many people are dead because of the stupidity and naivety of this man

xtrorxe:
Marginalisation or not, performing governors and political appointees or not, self-determination remains an inalienable right of a people. [size=14pt]Exclusively hyping on performance of selected politicians as the antidote to the quest of a people to self-determination at this critical moment is simply diversionary and mischievous to state the least.[/size] 

This argument seems to be predicated on the premise that other governors and politicians are doing excellently better than their SE counterparts. And that is totally false and amounts to a campaign of calumny.

Which of other governors performed creditably better than Chime Sullivan, Peter Obi or Chris Ngige vis-a-vis the available funds at their disposal?

Remember that after the civil war the federal government promised to rehabilitate and reconstruct the Eastern region but subsequent evil governments diverted Gowon’s 3Rs to other regions for neglecting and under-developing the Eastern region for deliberate obvious reasons.

The infallible truth is that the Nigerian system has been so designed to foist notorious crooks on the people and also frustrate credible people from performing.

Acknowledge the simple fact that Igbos fare better than most tribes even with their numerous looting of the commonwealth and great federal government presence. The Igbos have the highest concentration of middle-class citizens while squalor and penury pervade other enclaves. You can see the reality in the shocking manner many of your States are in comatose with many of its civil servants surviving on the good gestures of concerned Nigerians.

With the dwindling crude oil earnings Igbo States are the least affected largely due to the fact that their economy is not crude oil dependent. Fayose of Ekiti government had to send some of its citizens to the SE to learn a skill/trade in a bid to grow the economy of Ekiti State. 

A legitimate agitation by a people for a simple referendum is no way a crime. Reeling out old time war tales with video clips and pictures to your satisfaction reeks of hypocrisy and only meant to divert attention from the crust of the matter to the subterranean.

After a couple of months of silence, the federal government just voiced out by stating that the agitation for Biafra is legitimate, so why have the government invested so much money in evil propaganda and hirelings and targeting and killing over 10 unarmed protesters?

No one has got the moral right to impose on another his/her self-centred way of reasoning.

Come to think of this: Why do you think the government and those who have criminally benefitted and still benefitting from this contraption are quick to threaten war and resort to violence as a means to quelling a genuine agitation as against opting for a simple referendum?

Strange bedfellows, with irreconcilable value systems that are at best suitable for the individual selves, are not meant to be together! The 102 years of existence attest to that verdict!

Victor Hugo once said "no army can stop an idea whose time has come" and that "one can resist the invasion of armies but not the invasion of ideas".

Freedom seekers seek freedom until it's achieved. They don't allow others define them to suit their interest and narratives, or permit the oppressors and abusers of human rights to teach them, the oppressed what human rights are. Once beaten twice shy, they say.

"I would rather remain in detention than subject myself to a trial that I know amounts to perversion of justice." - Nnamdi Kanu, Dec 23, 2015

All dis story no concern me, the pics though,

the sisters be like: brother Kanu, no worry dem go soon release u, u hear ?


Kanu: release kwa ? dem no dey follow una play for this una zoo again? Y una wicked like this?

Well said. Kanu is going through what he put himself through and should die for it. If he feel like acting this way, he should not complain of any detention rather die there so that his fo00lishness can be celebrated by his fo00lish followers. Ediot like him.

He would become the undeserved martyr around which many more poor naive people will die, having been manipulated by the few power hungry men, who used his memory.
