We could recall vividly how Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was illegally arrested and detained for close to 2years on a trumped-up charge of treasonable felony but rather than dampen the resolve of Biafrans in agitating for their freedom, rather than discourage Biafrans, his arrest strengthened our determination and resolve to pursue our right to Self-determination.
The lack of diligent prosecution of his trial on the part of the Nigerian government is a clear evidence that they have no case against him and ware left with no option than to grant him bail albeit with conditions that are desired to take away his fundamental rights and freedoms.
They had hoped to intimidate him into silence but to their disappointment Mazi Nnamdi Kanu cannot be intimidated.
Now the Arewa North very jittery are calling for his re arrest for daring to oppose their hegemonic stranglehold on the contraption called Nigeria which they see as nothing but their grand father’s estate.
Our promise to them is that the Indigenous People of Biafra under the leadership of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu shall resist any re-arrest order of our leader even with our blood if need be.
Individuals, and groups have advised the Nigerian government on the dangers inherent in its plan to re arrest the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra. It is important that the Nigerian government heeds to this reasonable advice from well-meaning individuals and groups.
