IPOB Dares Buhari, Says Nnamdi Kanu Can Never Be Re-arrested For Violating Bail Conditions
August 26, 2017 – IPOB Dares Buhari, Says Nnamdi Kanu Can Never Be Re-arrested For Violating Bail Conditions
IPOB has dared the Federal Government of Nigeria to attempt to re-arrest its leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
The group’s challenge came as a response to an appeal by Nigeria’s Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, asking for the revocation of a court order that granted bail to Mr. Kanu. The minister also advocated the re-arrest and detention of the IPOB leader pending the determination of the charges against him.
The Attorney General cited Mr. Kanu’s violation of his bail conditions as one of the major reasons the secessionist agitator should be arrested.
Reacting to the minister’s position, IPOB accused the Federal Government of playing politics, adding that Mr. Kanu could never be rearrested. The group also vowed that many tragic events would happen if Nigerian authorities ever rearrested the IPOB leader.
“IPOB is not doing anything about the order of [the Federal Government] through the Attorney General to revoke [a] court order and arrest Nnamdi Kanu again. We are just watching and waiting to see what is going to happen and how it will happen,” the secessionist group stated.
IPOB added, “Think about what his re-arrest would cause in Nigeria. The FG is just playing politics. They cannot arrest Nnamdi Kanu. This is not the first time they would be calling for his re-arrest. Nevertheless, a lot of people have written articles stating the tragic that will happen if he is rearrested.”
IPOB restated its advice to all Igbo to leave the Northern part of Nigeria on or before October 1, 2017. It warned Igbo resident in the northern part of Nigeria not to fall into a trap set by Northerners.
In April, a Federal High Court in Abuja granted bail to Mr. Kanu who is facing trial for alleged treason. The bail, which was granted on health grounds, came with certain conditions, including stipulations that the secessionist leader should not address rallies, grant interviews, or be at a gathering of more than 10 people.
Mr. Kanu has since been addressing huge crowds of people who support his agitation for an independent republic of Biafra.

He’s a charlatan peddling division who are his sponsors? If all Igbo were one he can campaign but they are divided and know their best interests are within our Republic of one Nigeria. Bandits who are Fulani not Fulani herdsmen are being dealt with as are Boko Haram. Anyone who takes arms against fellow citizens deserves what’s coming. Don’t blame colonialism and corruption on the states of Nigeria. This a collective malaise of Greed and All Tribes are involved. Do we really want to see a split sectarian country? We are great as the Giant of Africa. How many will live in a state of Biafra? There will be no way back in once left.

Keep shut if u don’t have any reasonable thing to say @ prince. U think everyone is like u that folds hands at injustice? We were all forced into Nigeria without our consent and if any part feels it’s no longer interested in this ‘forced marriage ‘ that region has a right to go. Do u know the kind of great injustice the North has and is still melting out to the south?

Collective greed, unbriddled self centeredness, excesive inward looking attitude of the Igbo nation has brought the entire Igbo race into a quagmire of loss of deserving recognition in a nation where they are supposed to be equal stake holders. Why has the Igbos nation allowed themselves to be misled by a miscreant of Nnamdi Kanu calibre in pronouncing and or spearheading a crusade as huge as a national discord of an entire race without being called to order. Igbo elders have maintained a subtle and dangerous silent support for Nnamdi Kanu’s lawless activities. How does one explain the reactions of the Igbos scampering for cover everywhere in response to certain group of Almajiris from the north issueing a quit notice.? Igbos should do a reassessment of their attitudes and how they relate with the rest of Nigerian populace with regards to interpersonal relationship and how well they may have faired in the past, present and how do Nigerians of other tribes persive an average Igbo person. Question is, why is an average Igbo person so despiced and suspected for all manner of reasons in any community they find themselves and what are the causes inherent to those suspisions, rightly or wrongly do those perceptions lend any credence to facts and known records.? are those perceptions worth working at or simply be allowed to fester as it has become a terrible image damaging to an entire race. Every other Nigerian tribes have their own baggage of rots though but what accounts for the prevalence of henious criminal record of a single race and why does an average Igbo person never trust people of other tribal stock except those of their own, even in criminal activities the frontiers of Igbos are very closely knitted. Is it totally incorrect that Igbos always wherever they are supposed be guests try to establish a hegemonious tribal enclave and why do other tribes dare not try a similar thing in the heart of Igboland. Igbos should learn from other federating tribes that constitute Nigeria where the Igbos are guests and reside across the country; their receptive and accomodating credentials that has made them to strive and develop in whatever business they are engaged in. Igbos should do a self assessment of charracter and attitude in order that other Nigerians begin to see them as a trusted stakeholders in the Nigerian project.
