Nnamdi Kanu’s Re-arrest Will Be Nigeria’s Greatest Mistake – Father
High Royal Highness (Eze) Israel Okwu Kanu, father of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), says the recent move by the federal government to rearrest his son will be its greatest mistake.
In an interview with The Sun, the traditional ruler of Isiama Afaraukwu Ibeku, Umuahia said his son had done nothing wrong and that any plans to arrest him will brew more problems for the country.
He said the grounds on which the rearrest of Kanu is being sought are baseless, adding that the bail conditions granted him are a violation of his fundamental human rights.
After spending 18 months in detention, following his arrest by the Department of State Services (DSS), Binta Nyako, justice of a federal high court in Abuja, had granted Kanu bail on April 25.
But the government says he has flouted the bail conditions, prompting the calls for his arrest.
“When they talk of re-arresting him, it means they want to kill him, but God will not allow them because my son has done nothing wrong,” he said.
“I am using this opportunity to call on the United Nations to call the Nigerian government to order because they are planning to kill my son.
“Why will they want to re-arrest him? Did he kill anybody? Did he flout the constitution?
“Some people are saying that my son, flouted the bail condition given him by a Federal High Court in Abuja, but the question remains, what type of bail condition was that? Is it possible that a person of my son’s standing in the society could stay without meeting up to 10 persons in a day or week?
“So, the said bail condition was against his fundamental human rights.
“The court in the first place never restrained him from moving about. So, in the course of going to see one or two of his friends and those people would organise reception for him, I don’t think there is anything wrong with that to warrant his being crucified.
“The question I have been asking since I heard about this planned re-arrest is whether Nnamdi is running away from the country? There is no way he would do that. Any day they want him to appear in court, he will quietly do that.”
Okwu further accused the government of being biased in its reaction to the northern quit notice in relation to Biafra agitations. This, he said, will only add momentum to the clamour for secession.
Okwu also said he could not advice his son to quit the agitation for Biafra.
“I read the other day that the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami said the Federal Government did not arrest sponsors of quit notice to Igbo living in the northern part of the country because of the security implications,” he said.
“From what he said, it was not that the Arewa youths did not commit any offence, but the issue is that the Federal Government is afraid of what will come out of such arrests and allowed them to move freely.
“On the other hand, they are making move to get Nnamdi Kanu, who had done nothing re-arrested because they believe nothing would happen if they do that, but they may be making the greatest mistake.
“It is this treating people from a certain part of the country as being superior to others that is making the agitation for Biafra to gain momentum on a daily basis.”

I am happy our father, the father of the leader of the indigenous people of Biafra is granted this interview. I would like to use this medium to reach out to our leader, In the aspects of the operation python dance of the zoo military, it is a clearer opportunity to call on the world to take note of how the zoo has planned to wage war with the biafran civilians. Therefore every body should buy food and what ever needed to and prepare for one week sit at home to bring to the notice of the entire world that the Nigerian state is in war with the biafran people who have been peaceful in their demand for self determination. When we sit at home for one week every body who wants peace should not go any where in the Igbo cities just like the 30 may it must surely draw the attention of the entire world on what we are facing in the zoo. That is my advice for now because we don’t have a standing army to contest the zoo at the moment

It is high time Nigeria stopped underestimating the resolve of over 70 million Biafra populace. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is only asking for the freedom of his people and the restoration of Biafra. Any threat on him is a threat to millions of Biafrans and it will be resisted at all cost. Asking for a referendum to stop the dehumanization, bastardization, massacre and subjugation of our people is never too much to ask.
Finally, as his court date approaches, we understand the plan put in place to arrest him. To arrest an innocent man is the height of foolishness and it is unacceptable to us. Those that loot and shift billions of dollars of oil and gas from Biafra land to overseas are coroneted, celebrated and not arrested. Let it be known that the order given by the Biafran leader is more than a prophetic summon.
“YOU ARE UNDER OATH AND BY VIRTUE OF THAT OATH YOU ARE UNDER ORDER FROM ME. ANY DAY YOU WAKE UP AND HEAR THAT I HAVE BEEN ARRESTED, BURN NIGERIA DOWN”
The above command is for Biafrans and all lovers of freedom. Therefore, all should remain tenaciously alert on his or her duty post. We must defend the young indefatigable Biafran leader with the last drop of our blood. The die is cast! Re-arrest Nnamdi Kanu and watch Nigeria sink!

Who told you Igbo’s are more than 70million when was that census taken???
Why should KANU look for freedom for his people when his people are not in captivity .
By the way , what make you think that kanu has people ? He is also part of people,
Who Told you they are been massacred ,maltreat bla bla bla when almost all Igbo’s studied in the north and many of them settled in the north for over 70years ,some don’t even wanna go back to their land ,some owns business here in the north .
So what are you trying to tell me??
Nnamdi KANU will not be re-arrested?? He is fighting for freedom peacefully??
Then why recruiting BSS when he as not Benn giving permission by the law , is that peace??
Any unrecognized act is a threat against the nation .
