Biafra: US Dragged To Court Over Refusal To Declare IPOB Terrorist Organisation

Biafra Backlash and Ndigbo Assets

The US Embassy in Nigeria has been dragged before a Federal High Court in Abuja by one Nze Charles Ugwu, for saying the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) led by Nnamdi Kanu is not a terrorist organisation.

ORIENTAL TIMES recalls that the US Embassy’s spokesman, Russel Brooks, had said IPOB is not a terrorist organisation under US laws.

In the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/977/17 and dated October 12, 2017 filed by Simon Kanshio, Ugwu’s lawyer, he asked the court to compel Brooks to retract his statement within seven days of delivery of judgment in the case.

He asked the court to determine “a true interpretation of sections 1, 4 and 5 of the Terrorism (Prevention) (Amendment) Act, 2013 and the United Nations Convention on Terrorism.

“Whether the United States of America represented in Nigeria through the 2nd defendant is no longer obligated to be bound by the United Nation Convention on Terrorism which the United States of America signed and ratified?”

“The 1st and 2nd defendants representing the United States of America in Nigeria are under absolute obligation to obey Nigerian laws both statutory and judicial so far as they are within the territory of Nigeria irrespective of their personal opinions.”

    LONG TIME IN SLAVERY AND CAPTIVITY CAUSES BRAIN MALFUNCTION.
    The people trapped in this enclave, zoo called Nigeria no longer reason like human because of long stay captivity and slavery.
    That is why at times, I don’t blame ordinary baboons and monkeys in this zoo called Nigeria.
    Imagine what an animal who called himself a legal practitioner did.
    What now do you expect from one who knows not the law at all.
    Indeed, zoo is zoo!

    Who is sponsoring him? Hope it’s not our country’s money that is being wasted? We should know that US is not like Nigeria where human rights are not respected. IPOB has been doing her various protests without harm to anyone or to the country itself. They are demanding for a legitimate right. But this government instead of peaceful negotiations resorted to killing innocent people of igbo extraction. In a normal system of government, the president and chief of army should have been charged for genocide

    Nze Charles Ugwu please do not waste your time. You are another political contractor hoping to make name for your self, and sadly for you and your principals you will fail as your legal action has no merit whatsoever.

    This people are swift in coating “sections 1, 4 and 5 of the Terrorism (Prevention) (Amendment) Act, 2013 and the United Nations Convention on Terrorism”.

    but they don’t remember to coat the section of UN chart that talks of the right to SELF DETERMINATION for any indigenous people.

    Selfishness, coating and twisting the laws to how it sorts them and feel that nobody has right to air their view or mind…………………
