We will surely be heard..
The UK government has played 'paper Tiger' game for over 3 years and it is enough.

Remaining constantly on my mind the plight of British Citizen Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the outlawed Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPBO), who is being unlawfully held in prison in Abuja, after the Nigerian DSS( Department of State Service) a took him in an « extraordinary rendition’ from Kenya three years ago.
He was drugged, blindfolded and tortured over 8 days, leaving him with serious heart problems that now urgently need surgery.
His detention has been declared unlawful by Nigeria’s Supreme Court, which ordered his immediate release , and his return to his wife and young children living here.
The UK government has failed this family. It has made no protest to the Nigerian authorities concerning their abuse of Kanu’s human rights. It is also failing his wife and young sons living here , who are suffering psychologically and socially, and in gréât fear, deprived of their rights to family life.
On Monday, 24th September, in Abuja, Kanu himself asked the sitting judge to recuse herself declaring that he had no confidence in her court since it has ignored the findings of the Supreme Court.
His lawyers have urged the Federal Government to drop the groundless terrorist charges against him, or grant him bail so he can prepare properly for his trial.
We recall with admiration the long six years Richard Ratcliffe spent struggling to get his wife Nazanine released from the Evian prison in Teheran. But Kanu cannot wait so long.
He urgently needs expert heart surgery if he is to survive, and he is only 56. His sons under ten.
I am acting for his suffering wife, Uche.
The Labour Party promised a respect for the Rule of Law, international human rights conventions, but their silence on this case is like that of the previous government .
We are now working on a Petition addressed to the PM Starmer, Foreign Secretary Lammy and the AG Richard Kermer, that they use all diplomatic and other tools to secure Kanu’s release.
Watch this space when it will be posted for you to sign.
Here in this country there is a British mother and two children whose rights are being ignored by our three prime leaders all of them human rights lawyers.
Please show interest in this injustice and write to your MPs to draw attention to this case.
Google Nnamdi Kanu to find out more.

Persecution Of Igbo People In Nigeria Stops With Me, It Can’t Happen Again —IPOB leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu roared in court “
Published On the Biafra Post
September 26,2024
It can never happen that is why we do what we do. That is why I do what I do. I am campaigning for the freedom of my people because of the persecution that we are facing. It’s as simple as that nothing more nothing less. When it comes to Igbo people, the rules will change because it is Igbo people yet you call us one Nigeria.”
Persecution of Igbo people in Nigeria stops with me, it can’t happen again — Fearless Nnamdi Persecution Of Igbo People In Nigeria Stops With Me, It Can’t Happen Again — Fearless Nnamdi Kanu “It can never happen that is why we do what we do. That is why I do what I do. I am campaigning for the freedom of my people because of the persecution that we are facing. It’s as simple as that nothing more nothing less. When it comes to Igbo people, the rules will change because it is Igbo people yet you call us one Nigeria.”
The detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has issued a strong statement asserting that the persecution of the Igbo people in Nigeria will end with him.
Speaking after a recent court hearing in Abuja, Kanu emphasized that his advocacy for Biafra’s restoration is rooted in the on going marginalization of the Igbo community. Kanu has been in the custody of Nigeria’s secret police since July 2021. His latest comments followed the withdrawal of Justice Binta Nyako from presiding over his trial, a move prompted by Kanu’s application questioning her impartiality in light of alleged noncompliance with a Supreme Court ruling.
During the court session, Kanu directly addressed the judiciary, urging his legal counsel to remain seated as he referenced the Supreme Court’s judgment regarding perceived bias.
In an interview after the proceedings, Kanu asserted, “This persecution of the Igbo people… stops with me; it cannot happen.” “It can never happen that is why we do what we do. That is why I do what I do. I am campaigning for the freedom of my people because of the persecution that we are facing. It’s as simple as that nothing more nothing less. When it comes to Igbo people, the rules will change because it is Igbo people yet you call us one Nigeria.”

#Biafrans and lovers of freedom there is no #ESN commander called “Katapilla “
kindly disregard this order because it’s not coming from #ESN command under this Twitter handle .
Biafrans should be careful of those using the name of ESN to defraud our people and carrying out criminal activities.
KATAPILLA is not recognized by #ESN command and #ESN has no dealings with him and is not an #ESN operative.
Share widely.

THE STORY OF ONE SET OF CRIM*INALS IN CHARGE OF OUR NATIONAL ASSETS
*“When I was military head of state, we ordered 19 new ships to be built for the Nigerian National Shipping Line (NNSL), which was owned by the federal government. We had about five at the time, and with 19, we were to have 24 ships. We took delivery of some before we left office. President Shehu Shagari took delivery of the remaining balance. When I returned after 20 years, the shipping line had been liquidated. Not one ship left. Let me tell you the story of one of the ships. They sold it for half a million dollars. Then, they started the Oron merchant navy school and needed a ship for training. They bought the ship they had sold for half a million dollars for $2 million and spent another $1.5 million to refit it so it could be seaworthy.*
*The ship went on the first voyage a week after I became president in 1999. One of the first things they brought to me was that the ship had been arrested for not being seaworthy and that I should bring $1 million to pay as fine for the ship that had been detained. I requested that they allow me time to look at the issues, and when I studied the issues, I told them to inform those who arrested the ship that I had gifted them the ship. The following day, the ship was released without Nigeria paying a dime. You can guess what happened there.”*

Igbo parents abroad understanding the dangers of having and raising a child abroad have decided to draw their children closer to their culture and where they came from.
I must be honest with Igbo parents abroad, they are doing wonderfully well lately in drawing the attention of their children to their culture.
It surprised me that many of these Igbo children born and raised abroad can speak Igbo language more than some that were born in ala Igbo.
Well encouraged .
Keep it up.
The spirit of Afrika good leader that was killed by the West has woken up
Every Africa home and abroad must support the great President of our time, President Ibrahim Traoré from the west
Burkina Faso's must be protected.
Stand up great Afrika the time has come for your freedom
I know you don't want to believe it. I know you want to believe Nlgeria will get better, but it won't. You can't even save it. Those trying to keep it together will keep committing evị́l until their evil explodes and destr0ys everything.
To be honest Igbo parents abroad, are doing wonderfully well lately in drawing the attention of their children to their culture.
It surprising that many of these Igbo children born and raised abroad can speak Igbo language more than some born at home.
Despite all the efforts of the Nigerian government to demonize IPOB, despite the millions of dollars they spent to project IPOB as unfriendly people to the global community . IPOB global family are determined to prove to the world that Biafra sovereignty will be an economic plus to the world. IPOB is peaceful and well organised.
Kudos to IPOB Switzerland Family.
He jumped from dragon to serpent, from disciple to PM. Jumped from Enter Biafra to Autopilot and to Biafra in Exile.
Only him used 20million to plant tomato and today he can't provide tomato farm Noor the money.
He collected 5 million to build an App till date no App no money.
The aim of the Nigeria gov. is to drag IPOB into terrorism so that IPOB will lose its international audience.
That is their sole aim of always linking Ekpa & his group to IPOB. Because already that group may look relevant to some shallow minds but already destroyed by the gov.
What a quick way for Western population reduction plan.
Virus 🦠 experiments failed.
Poisons experiments failed.
Covid experiments failed too.
Now let’s start a nuclear war and run to our bunker.
But you will be dead even before you blink.
