[Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso @KwankwasoRM]

I was deeply honoured to host a high-powered solidarity visit from the Igbo Elders Consultative Forum at my residence in Abuja.

The delegation was led by Dr. S. N. Okeke, Chairman of the Ohanaeze Council of Elders for the 19 States and the FCT, alongside former Governor of Enugu State, Okwesilieze Nwodo. The elders expressed strong appreciation for the growing and cordial partnership between myself and His Excellency Mr. Peter Obi under the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC). They pledged their unwavering support for the Obi/Kwankwaso ticket and assured the movement of massive electoral backing across the South-East and the wider Southern region.

In my response, I thanked the delegation for their visit and for the opportunity to exchange views on the state of the nation. Reflecting on the historic North-South East political dynamics, I expressed delight at the excellent and productive relationship I continue to enjoy with HE Peter Obi. I also reaffirmed my total commitment to the OK Movement and the National Democratic Congress (NDC), emphasising our resolute determination to deliver victory for the party in the upcoming elections. - RMK

THE TRAGEDY OF KENNETH OKONKWO: HOW CIVILITY WAS SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF POLITICAL VITUPERATION

“The noise, the fury, and futility; Kenneth Okonkwo’s war against political decorum”

One of the enduring virtues of constitutional democracy, as inherited from the civilized traditions of democratic governance across the world, is its insistence on civility, decorum, and intellectual engagement in political contestation. Democracy was never designed to be a theatre of insults, nor a marketplace of reckless invective. Rather, it thrives on reasoned disagreement, principled opposition, ideological debates, and fact-based criticism of governmental policies and public officials.

In every healthy democracy, opposition politics performs a vital constitutional function. It serves as a watchdog against executive excesses, exposes unpopular policies, amplifies the concerns of the citizenry, and enriches public discourse through constructive criticism. Indeed, many governments have recalibrated their policies after taking cognizance of legitimate concerns raised by opposition voices.

Regrettably, what increasingly confronts Nigerians today is a disturbing departure from these cherished democratic norms. Instead of directing critical scrutiny toward those who presently wield state power and determine the policy trajectory of the nation, certain political actors have chosen to expend their energies launching relentless attacks against fellow opposition figures.

This unfortunate trend finds perhaps one of its most dramatic manifestations in the routine media outings of Mr. Kenneth Okonkwo. His persistent and often intemperate commentaries directed at Mr. Peter Obi have become a subject of widespread public discussion and concern. While no democratic society should suppress dissenting opinions or robust political disagreement, there is an unmistakable distinction between constructive criticism and a sustained campaign of personal vilification.

For many discerning observers, Mr. Okonkwo’s appearances across television and digital media platforms have projected less the image of a spokesperson engaged in principled political debate and more that of a man consumed by an inexplicable obsession. His language, disposition, and manner of engagement frequently transcend the boundaries of healthy political discourse and venture into territories that do little to elevate public conversation.

One is inevitably compelled to ask: What exactly is driving this relentless fixation? Is it ideology? Is it principle? Is it political strategy? Or is it something far more personal and less comprehensible to the ordinary observer?

Whatever the motivation may be, one fact remains undeniable: the tone and tenor of his public interventions have contributed little to the advancement of democratic dialogue. Instead, they have increasingly transformed serious political discussions into spectacles that often leave viewers bewildered rather than enlightened.

Even more concerning is the potential damage such conduct inflicts upon those on whose behalf he ostensibly speaks. Political advocacy becomes counterproductive when excessive hostility overshadows substance. History is replete with examples of political surrogates whose uncontrolled rhetoric ultimately harmed the very causes and candidates they sought to promote.

It is equally important to remind ourselves that Mr. Kenneth Okonkwo is not merely a politician. He is a legal practitioner, a profession that traditionally imposes higher standards of restraint, civility, and responsibility in public communication. Members of the legal profession are expected to embody intellectual discipline and measured expression, especially when engaging matters of public importance.

No one disputes Mr. Okonkwo’s constitutional right to criticize political actors. Indeed, criticism is the lifeblood of democracy. However, criticism loses its legitimacy when it abandons facts for insults, reason for hostility, and persuasion for provocation. Political engagement should never degenerate into a contest of who can utter the harshest words or attract the loudest headlines.

The Nigerian media space must equally exercise vigilance. Television stations and broadcast platforms should remain conscious of their obligations to promote responsible discourse. The airwaves should not become arenas where reckless utterances are normalized or rewarded merely because they generate momentary attention. Freedom of expression carries with it corresponding duties of responsibility, accuracy, and respect for public sensibilities.

Political disagreements are inevitable; political hostility is not. One may oppose a candidate without demonizing him. One may challenge ideas without demeaning personalities. One may disagree passionately without abandoning civility.

The tragedy of contemporary politics is not disagreement-it is the growing abandonment of dignity in disagreement.

As Nigerians prepare for future political contests, we must collectively reject the normalization of toxic rhetoric. Public figures, irrespective of political affiliation, should aspire to elevate national conversations rather than degrade them. The electorate deserves arguments, not abuse; facts, not fury; persuasion, not personal vendettas.

Should this disturbing pattern persist unabated, it may not be entirely unreasonable for concerned observers to call for a professional medical and psychological assessment of Mr. Kenneth Okonkwo, with a view to determining whether there are underlying factors contributing to his increasingly troubling public conduct and utterances.

MONDAY MUSINGS

WHEN FALSEHOOD MASQUERADES AS HISTORY: A COMPREHENSIVE REBUTTAL OF ALOY EJIMAKOR’S CAMPAIGN OF DISTORTION AND DECEPTION

Setting the Record Straight

I have long resolved to abstain from the tawdry theatre of social media diatribe and altercation with persons who have bartered integrity, professionalism, and candour for the cheap currency of manipulation and mendacity. Silence, however, has its limits. When falsehood is uttered with sufficient temerity, it presumes the authority of truth. That presumption ends here.

This intervention is necessitated by a most fallacious, defamatory, and deceptive comment recently made by Aloy Ejimakor during a live broadcast, concerning my person and professional conduct. I beg indulgence for its length. Gravity demands thoroughness.

Upon Nnamdi Kanu’s rendition to Nigeria to face trial, permit me to place on record the strategic legal steps we adopted, an architecture in which Mr. Ejimakor was never involved.

1. My team and I resolved to challenge the competence of the charge before the Federal High Court. Anticipating amendments, we elected to shadow the prosecution with circumspection.

2. We first secured the Court’s leave for Nnamdi Kanu’s relatives and friends to visit him in DSS custody, which leave was granted, thereby facilitating visits by all and sundry.

3. Precisely as anticipated, once the charge was amended in October 2021, we filed our Notice of Preliminary Objection. It raised fundamental questions of law and expressly pleaded the irregularity of Kanu’s rendition to Nigeria as forming integral part of the grounds of objection.

4. When Mr. Ejimakor was foisted upon us, I engaged him on strategy. He disclosed his intention to institute a separate suit before the Federal High Court, Abuja, to challenge the rendition, hoping thereby to compel a suspension of the criminal proceedings on the substantive charge , I demurred entirely. I maintained, as any advocate of forensic prudence would, that any objection predicated on procedural irregularity must be ventilated within the same criminal proceedings themselves. That principled disagreement culminated in Mr. Ejimakor travelling to Abia State to initiate fundamental rights actions before the Abia State High Court and the Federal High Court, Umuahia, respectively, all contrived to arrest the hearing before the Federal High Court, Abuja, through whatever judgment he might procure.

In the event, those Umuahia excursions were consigned to the dustbin of legal irrelevance. They bore no impact whatsoever on the criminal matter in Abuja. The entire commotion, as predicted, culminated in nothing more edifying than social media content creation.

5. Our Notice of Preliminary Objection was drafted and filed without any input from Mr. Ejimakor. To my astonishment, under the overbearing influence of Nnamdi Kanu’s siblings, I was requested by Kanu to cede the moving of the application, an application I had prepared, to Mr. Ejimakor, a junior of over a decade’s standing to me at the Bar.

I refused. I suggested, with deference, that if he was so desirous of carriage, he might take over the brief entirely. At that same meeting, Kanu equally insisted that Bruce Fein be afforded access to the Court on the hearing date, notwithstanding that our prior efforts to secure Mr. Fein's access to the DSS facility had been rebuffed by the Service for reasons already communicated to Kanu.
6. On 10th November, 2021, the date fixed for the hearing , Mr. Bruce Fein was denied access to the court by the security personnel. However, owing to this regrettable circumstances precipitated by the refusal to grant Mr. Bruce Fein access to the courtroom- a development which we, as counsel, vigorously and unequivocally challenged, the proceedings could not proceed as scheduled. The ensuing impasse and exchanges outside the court room ultimately culminated in the abrupt termination of the day’s proceedings, following the closure of the courtroom's doors against us. Consequently, the hearing of the application was rendered impossible and stood adjourned.

7. The Court adjourned without hearing our application. I would have proceeded with the hearing and moved our application on the day of the aborted proceedings rather than participating in the protest occasioned by the denial of Bruce Fein’s access to the courtroom. However, where one is to be traduced and branded a “saboteur” or “agent of government” for discharging professional duty, even Heaven would be insufficient to exonerate one, both publicly and privately.

8. The Federal High Court, Abuja, is comprehensively fitted with CCTV surveillance. I challenge Mr. Ejimakor to state, with specificity, when and where I purportedly removed his wig and gown to prevent him from moving the application, and for what forensic purpose.
Is it not demeaning to my reputation to suggest that I would descend to such pettiness with a junior counsel merely “incubating” in practice? How, did he then recover the said wig and gown from me if any of such thing ever happened ?

9. When the matter was later adjourned for the hearing of the same application challenging the competence of the charge, Prof. Mike Ozekhome, SAN, had assumed leadership of the defence team.

Mr. Bruce Fein again wrote to Prof. Ozekhome and I, insisting on access and threatening boycott if denied. It became evident that the design was to truncate the defence. I informed him plainly that if security again denied him access, he would have to find his way back to the United States. That marked the beginning of his vituperations against me.

Recall that it was that very application, ultimately moved by our lead counsel, Prof. Ozekhome, SAN on the 19th January 2022, that resulted in the striking out of eight of the fifteen counts against Nnamdi Kanu, leading to a subsequent appeal seeking the striking out of the remaining seven counts. We ultimately succeeded at the Court of Appeal, where he was discharged and acquitted, and perpetually shielded from further prosecution on any offence in Nigeria. The record speaks for itself.

10. I challenge Mr. Ejimakor to substantiate his calumnies with evidence. I shall, in due course, furnish a more devastating account of his underhand dealings to smear me, and perfidy during our stewardship of the brief, conduct born of naked jealousy and envy, which impelled him into a terrain he manifestly did not comprehend, and into that now infamous frenzy of “Show Me the Law”, which ultimately consumed his hubris and exposed the vacuity of his legal erudition.

I am ever ready.

Let them return to the drawing board with their grandmaster, who is busily perfecting the present chaos. You cannot beat me at this game. By honesty, transparency, commitment, and, above all, by the record, I shall diminish them all.

The record of every event remains with me and is indelibly engraved upon my memory.

I have warned you, Mr. Ejimakor, and your coterie of content merchants, for the last time: confine yourselves to the weighty task ahead.

Signed
