FINLAND VS SIMON EKPA
Today, I arrived home safely after the conclusion of the Simon Ekpa case in Finland. European democracy is strange because if I had been in Nigeria I would have been thrown in River Niger for opposing the President but in Finland we told @alexstubb on his soil .I hope he has now seen the truth about Nigeria 🇳🇬.
I also thank some of Opposition Members of Finnish Parliament whom we share 4 hrs over coffee and a lot of information regarding Nigeria .
My public statements speak volumes, and I want to sincerely thank the Defence Lawyer Tommi for the cooperation we had throughout this case.
My tactical headquarters in Helsinki also played an important role in supporting the work.However, it is too early to CELEBRATE
We still have to hear the verdict, which is expected next month,September 2026.
Whatever verdict comes, I now have a HUGE TASK ahead of me:
“to move to the European Court of Human Rights as an interested party in the case, where possible under the applicable procedures, to pursue the issues surrounding Simon Ekpa’s case and to protect his name and reputation worldwide.”
The job is huge.
It is not over until it is over between me and Finland.Whatever comes, I will continue to stand firmly on the principles of the European Convention on Human Rights.
EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS , KEY ARTICLES WERE VIOLATED
ARTICLE 5 — RIGHT TO LIBERTY AND SECURITY
No arbitrary detention. A person deprived of liberty must have a lawful basis, and detention must be subject to judicial review.
ARTICLE 6 — RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL
Independent and impartial tribunal; fair hearing; presumption of innocence; adequate defence rights; right to examine evidence and witnesses.
ARTICLE 7 — NO PUNISHMENT WITHOUT LAW
No one can be convicted for an act that was not a criminal offence when it was committed.
ARTICLE 8 — RIGHT TO PRIVATE AND FAMILY LIFE
Protection of private life, family life, home and correspondence. Interference must have a lawful and necessary justification.
ARTICLE 10 — FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
Protects the right to hold opinions and to receive and communicate information and ideas. Restrictions must be prescribed by law and necessary in a democratic society.
ARTICLE 11 — FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLY AND ASSOCIATION
Protects peaceful assembly and association. Restrictions must be lawful and necessary in a democratic society.
ARTICLE 13 — RIGHT TO AN EFFECTIVE REMEDY
A person whose Convention rights have been violated must have an effective remedy before a national authority.
ARTICLE 14 — PROHIBITION OF DISCRIMINATION
Convention rights must be secured without discrimination, including on grounds such as political or other opinion.
ARTICLE 15 — DEROGATION IN TIME OF EMERGENCY
Even during a public emergency, derogation from Convention rights is subject to strict conditions. Certain rights cannot be derogated from.
ARTICLE 17 — PROHIBITION OF ABUSE OF RIGHTS
The Convention cannot be used to justify destroying or excessively limiting the rights and freedoms it protects.
ARTICLE 18 — LIMITATION ON USE OF RESTRICTIONS
Restrictions on Convention rights must not be applied for a purpose other than the purpose for which they were prescribed.
FOR A “RED-FLAG” / SECURITY CASE
The most important combination is:
ARTICLE 5 — Liberty
ARTICLE 6 — Fair Trial
ARTICLE 7 — No Punishment Without Law
ARTICLE 8 — Private Life
ARTICLE 10 — Freedom of Expression
ARTICLE 11 — Assembly & Association
ARTICLE 13 — Effective Remedy
ARTICLE 14 — Non-Discrimination
ARTICLE 18 — Misuse of Restrictions
These are the principles that I will continue to examine as the legal process moves forward.
The fight for justice does not end with one verdict.
The job continues.

On 26 August 2026, as they departed Finland, the United States of Biafra delegates extended their heartfelt gratitude to Biafran leaders and the people of Biafra, having successfully represented the Biafran people and stood in solidarity with H.E. Simon Ekpa (@simon_ekpa) during his unlawful trial.
We remain optimistic that, this time, the Finnish authorities will uphold justice and refuse to bow to pressure from the genocidal Nigerian regime and its neo-colonial allies.
As our Prime Minister reiterated before the Finnish court: “The Truth Is Global.”
Great song of redemption..
@alexstubb let justice & truth prevail.
Finland should desengage from corrupt Nigeria political games that will stain there sovereign nation.
Negotiate with @ngoziora@USBGovernment for business trade relationships.

“This Video Was The Day Nigerian Forces Stormed Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s Compound In Afara Ukwu Ibeku, Umuahia In Broad Daylight. You Can Still Hear His Voice In The Video. They Tried To Break Into His Room And End Him. When The Gate Refused To Yield, They Turned Their Armored Vehicle’s Heavy Guns On His Window And Opened Fire Without Mercy.
“That Fateful Day, Over 28 Unarmed, Fearless Biafran Sons Paid The Ultimate Price. Among Them Was MNK Own Cousin. We Honor Their Blood. We Will Never Forget Their Stand. Their Courage Remains a Permanent Scar On The Conscience Of This Country.
“Till This Very Day, The Bullet Holes And The Destruction From That Vicious Attack Are Still Visible When You Visit His Home. The Walls Still Carry The Marks. The Evidence Of The Attempt To Silence Him Refuses To Disappear.
“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Could Have Chosen The Easy Path. He Could Have Struck a Deal, Walked Free, And Lived In Comfort Somewhere Far From Danger. Many Of Those Now Attacking Him Would Have Signed That Deal In a Blink Of An Eye Without a Second Thought. But He Refused. He Chose The Harder Road: Prison, Isolation, And Constant Threat, Rather Than Betray The Cause.
“That Is Why He Is a True Hero. Not The Loud Ones Who Appear Only When It Is Safe. Not The Faceless Critics Who Never Faced a Single Bullet. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Stood When It Cost Everything. Those 28 Stood With Him. Their Sacrifice And His Unbroken Will Cannot Be Erased By Opportunistic Voices. Show This Video To Every Pretender Who Thinks They Can Lace His Shoes. The Blood That Was Shed That Day Still Speaks. The Man Who Refused To Sell Out Still Stands. No Deal-Maker, No Latecomer, And No Keyboard Gangster Will Ever Take His Place. We Remember. We Honor The Fallen. And We Remain Unshaken.

PRESS BRIEFING | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
26 August 2026
BIAFRAN MISSIONS DEMAND ANSWERS FROM FINLAND OVER ALLEGED SHARING OF H.E. SIMON EKPA’S PRIVATE COMMUNICATIONS WITH NIGERIA
The Unified Administrative Missions of the United States of Biafra (Restored), in cooperation with the United States of Biafra Missions in Australia, USA and Norway, have formally written to Finland’s Minister of the Interior, Mari Rantanen (@MariPSRantanen), seeking urgent clarification and accountability over allegations that Finnish authorities shared H.E. Simon Ekpa’s private emails, telephone communications and/or information obtained from his electronic devices with Nigerian authorities.
Finland has been asked to disclose whether such information was transferred, what was shared, who authorised it, which Nigerian authorities received it, and what human-rights risk assessment was conducted beforehand.
The correspondence specifically invokes:
Sections 31 and 51 of Finland’s Act on the Processing of Personal Data by the Police (616/2019), which prohibit international cooperation and information exchange where there are reasonable grounds to suspect that disclosure could expose any person to the death penalty, torture, treatment violating human dignity, persecution, arbitrary deprivation of liberty or an unfair trial;
Sections 41–44 of Act 1054/2018, governing transfers of law-enforcement personal data to third countries and requiring statutory conditions and safeguards for such transfers;
Section 10 of the Constitution of Finland, protecting private life, personal data and the confidentiality of correspondence, telephone calls and other confidential communications;
Articles 35–38 of EU Directive 2016/680, governing transfers of law-enforcement personal data to third countries and requiring that EU data-protection safeguards are not undermined; and
Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, protecting private life and correspondence.
These safeguards are particularly important given the documented and reported human-rights concerns surrounding the treatment of Biafrans by the Nigerian regime.
During H.E. Simon Ekpa’s detention in Finland, killings and other grave abuses continued to be reported in Biafran territory. We have therefore asked whether any Biafrans subsequently killed, detained, disappeared, tortured or otherwise targeted by Nigerian security forces were identifiable through information obtained from H.E. Simon Ekpa’s communications or electronic devices.
We have also asked Minister Rantanen to clarify what was discussed during her 10 June 2025 meeting with Nigerian Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, including whether H.E. Simon Ekpa, Biafra, Finnish-Nigerian police cooperation or the exchange of investigative information formed any part of those discussions.
If no such information was shared, Finland should state so unequivocally. If it was shared, Finland must explain who authorised it, under what law, what human-rights safeguards were applied, and whether anyone was harmed as a consequence.
The correspondence has been copied to relevant Finnish oversight authorities and international human-rights institutions.
We await Finland’s response.
