Why Ndigbo Indigenous to the South east, South south and North central Must Be Included in the Proposed Igbo Region.

The proposed Igbo region should not be defined only by today's political boundaries. Ndigbo indigenous to the South east, South south and North central should be included because their history, identity, language, culture and longstanding relationships connect them to the wider Igbo nation.

Shared Indigenous Identity: Being Igbo is rooted in ancestry, language, culture and historical identity, not simply in the state where a community is currently located.

Historical Continuity: Many present state boundaries were created through successive administrative arrangements. They should not erase or override the historical connections among indigenous Igbo communities.

Common Language and Culture: Igbo communities across these areas share related languages and dialects, customs, traditions, festivals, names, traditional institutions and social values.

Existing Social and Economic Connections: Family ties, marriages, trade, markets, education, agriculture and other economic activities have long connected these communities with one another.

Cultural Preservation: Bringing indigenous Igbo communities into a common regional framework can strengthen the preservation of Igbo languages, dialects, history, literature and cultural heritage.

Political and Economic Development: A united regional structure can provide a stronger platform for coordinated infrastructure, investment, education, transportation, agriculture, industry and economic development.

Justice and Representation: Indigenous Igbo communities should not be denied regional representation merely because political boundaries place them outside the conventional South east.
The Right to Choose: Ultimately, affected communities should be properly consulted and allowed to determine their preference through a democratic and constitutional process.

The proposed Igbo region should reflect the people and their historical connections, not merely lines drawn on a map. Ndigbo indigenous to the South east, South south and North central should therefore have their history, identity and aspirations recognized and their right to participate in the proposed regional government protected.

An administrative boundary should not be stronger than the identity, history and will of the people it separates.
All Igbo communities in Nigeria should be in Igbo region.
Igbo bu ofu.

It was an unforgettable experience today as we visited two of the most prestigious Igbo traditional institutions - the Igwe of Nnewi and the Obi of Onitsha - to officially present our amazing film, PROPERTIES OF THE GODS.

I made a decision to covet the blessings of our fathers because charity, they say, begins at home, and the blessings of our fathers to a project of this nature, are indispensable. Incidentally, we got more than just their blessings!

Stay tuned and you'll find out how it all went down.

PRESS RELEASE: 18 August 2026

By: OKWU-KANU FAMILY

FOURTEEN DAYS TO STOP HIS RELEASE. MONTHS OF DELAY WHEN HE SEEKS FREEDOM. WHY?

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Writes Chief Justice of Nigeria and President of the Court of Appeal Asking for His Cases to Be Listed Immediately

Federal Government Shows No Willingness to Join Issues in Either Court

United States Congress, Israeli Knesset and International Bar Association Will Be Formally Notified

The Okwu-Kanu Family wishes to inform Nigerians and the international community that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has now written separately to the Chief Justice of Nigeria and the President of the Court of Appeal requesting the immediate listing and hearing of his two pending cases.

The reason is simple.

The Federal Government has shown no sign of willingness to join issues in either proceeding, while Mazi Nnamdi Kanu remains in detention serving a life sentence.

He is not asking for special treatment.

He is asking the Nigerian judiciary to show the same urgency when his freedom is at stake that it showed when the Federal Government wanted to stop his release.

The benchmark was set by the judiciary itself in October 2022.

FOURTEEN DAYS TO STOP HIS RELEASE

On 13 October 2022, the Court of Appeal delivered its final judgment discharging Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and quashing the criminal counts against him.

It was an acquittal-equivalent discharge.

The Federal Government refused to release him.

By 28 October 2022—barely two weeks later—the Federal Government had filed, listed, argued and obtained a civil stay of execution from a differently constituted panel of the same Court of Appeal, even though the criminal appeal had already been finally determined and the Court was functus officio.

The stay stopped Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from enjoying the liberty granted by his acquittal-equivalent discharge.

Fourteen days.

In fourteen days, the machinery of the Court of Appeal moved from an acquittal-equivalent discharge to a civil stay that kept Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in detention.

The criminal appeal had already been finally determined. The Court was functus officio. Yet a differently constituted panel was assembled and civil procedure was deployed to restrain liberty arising from a concluded criminal proceeding.

That is the constitutionally impermissible hybridisation of civil and criminal procedure at the heart of the 28 October 2022 order.

A civil stay is not a criminal charge.

A civil stay is not a remand warrant.

A civil stay does not revive quashed criminal counts.

And a civil procedural rule cannot be transformed into a criminal power to keep a discharged person in detention.

To our knowledge, never before in Nigeria has a civil procedural rule been deployed in this manner to deny liberty to a person following an acquittal-equivalent discharge. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu appears to be the first and only person subjected to it.

The common-law world should take notice of what occurred:

A finally determined criminal appeal.

A functus officio Court of Appeal.

A differently constituted panel.

Civil procedure imported into a concluded criminal case.

And the result was continued detention of the man the same Court of Appeal had discharged fourteen days earlier.

FOURTEEN DAYS THEN. MONTHS NOW.

Where is that same urgency today?

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu commenced proceedings before the Supreme Court on 7 November 2025, challenging the legality of the Supreme Court's remittal judgment of 15 December 2023.

The Federal Republic of Nigeria was served.

More than nine months have passed.

According to the records available to the family, the Government has filed no substantive response.

The case has not been listed for hearing.

There is also a separate appeal before the Court of Appeal challenging Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's 20 November 2025 conviction and life sentence.

Karoline, you have been nothing short of extraordinary. You have taken on one of the toughest jobs in Washington with confidence, discipline, grace and an unmatched ability to deliver the President’s message. Simply put, you are the greatest @PressSec .

But what has been equally special is that you’ve let us see the woman behind the podium. It has been a privilege to watch you excel as a professional while also being an incredible wife and devoted mom.

You’ve made all of us, who have had the privilege of working alongside you, so proud. I am blessed to call you dear friend and I’m excited to see what your next chapter looks like.

Congratulations, @karolineleavitt !

[Karoline Leavitt @karolineleavitt]

Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life.

Most of all, I am thankful to the President for entrusting me with the distinct privilege of speaking on his behalf at the White House podium. I have spoken with great pride about the many historic accomplishments of this Administration, and I have relished holding the liberal media accountable and ensuring the American people hear the truth about President Trump’s successes.

Being a mother and welcoming a new baby while working in one of the most demanding jobs in the world has been the most rewarding yet challenging season of my life, to say the least. The truth is since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary — and that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House and embark on a new chapter in my life.

President Trump has asked me to continue serving as a top advisor to him on the outside, and I will always remain a vocal advocate for MAGA and the Republican Party.

Our country is facing an existential threat from an increasingly extremist Democrat Party that seeks to destroy everything great about America, and I believe it is incumbent upon all of us who care about this country to fight back against that threat. My fight is entering a new phase, but it is far from over.

Thank you again to the President, the First Lady, and the entire Trump family for your kindness and generosity over the years. Thank you to our amazing Chief of Staff Susie Wiles for empowering me since the day she hired me on the campaign, and to the President’s cabinet, my staff, colleagues, and friends at the White House who work so hard on behalf of our nation. It has been a privilege to serve alongside so many accomplished and impressive people, and I look forward to cheering them on over the next two and a half years.

And of course, thank you most especially to my loving and supportive husband and family for the sacrifices they made for me to serve in this role. ♥️🇺🇸

PRESS STATEMENT: 31st July 2026

SUBJECT: Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will not leave Sokoto without court order, because Sokoto sentencing is a core issue in his pending appeal

The Kanu Family Urges All Well-Meaning Persons to Respect the Legal Strategy and Not Undermine the Appeal

The Kanu family has observed persistent calls—both public and private—urging  Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, to accept relocation from Sokoto Custodial Centre to Abuja, outside the judicial process. We consider it necessary to clarify the family's position and to caution against any course of action that could undermine the pending appeal before the Court of Appeal.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Is Appearing Pro Se Before the Court of Appeal
It is a matter of public record that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is appearing pro se (in person) before the Court of Appeal in the pending appeal against his conviction. He has demonstrated an extraordinary grasp of the legal issues, having personally argued and briefed multiple jurisdictional grounds that his legal team believes are among the most potent ever raised in a Nigerian criminal appeal.

Appearing pro se imposes a heightened duty on the court to ensure that his rights are protected and that he is not taken advantage of by the prosecution. It also means that any course of action that could be construed as abandoning a ground of appeal—such as voluntarily leaving Sokoto Custodial Centre—would be particularly damaging to his case. The Kanu family is committed to ensuring that his pro se status does not result in any inadvertent waiver of his constitutional rights.

The Sokoto Sentencing Is a Live Issue in the Pending Appeal
On 20 November 2025, Justice J.K. Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja, convicted Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and sentenced him to life imprisonment. At page 118 of the judgment, the trial judge made a finding that our son "hates the North with a passion," and thereafter ordered that he serve his sentence at the Sokoto Custodial Centre—the seat of the Caliphate, the heart of the geographical North.

The legal team submits that the sequence of findings and orders gives rise to a compelling appearance of bias, and that this issue has been squarely placed before the Court of Appeal as a ground for setting aside the conviction. The Sokoto sentencing is not a mere administrative detail; it is a substantive ground of appeal that the legal team contends constitutes significant evidence in support of the appeal on judicial bias and fair hearing.

The Sokoto Sentencing Is a Crucial Plank of the Appeal
The law is well settled:

· Kenon v. Tekam—bias vitiates proceedings even without proof of actual prejudice; the appearance of bias is sufficient to nullify a trial.
· LPDC v. Fawehinmi—justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done.
· Alake v. State—where a judge imports facts not in evidence and bases a decision on them, he descends into the arena.
· Madu v. State—a conviction founded on facts not charged is a nullity.

The legal team contends that the Sokoto sentencing, standing alone and certainly when considered together with the other fourteen independent grounds of appeal, warrants setting aside the conviction. This issue has been fully briefed and is now awaiting determination by the Court of Appeal. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, appearing pro se, has personally argued these issues and will not allow any course of action that could undermine them.

The Matter Is Sub Judice—It Must Be Decided by the Court of Appeal
The sentencing to Sokoto Custodial Centre is a live issue in the appeal currently pending before the Court of Appeal. It has been argued, briefed, and is awaiting judicial determination. The Court of Appeal is the proper forum to decide whether the Sokoto sentencing was lawful, whether it constituted bias, and whether it should be quashed.
