Nnamdi Kanu Never Denied Leading IPOB

 

 

The Nigeria media houses are experts in disseminating false information’s, especially on issues concerning Indigenous People Of Biafra(IPOB) and the call for a Biafra referendum. It is evident that foundational structures of Nigeria are built on, and cemented with lies. And since even before the deceptive Independence in 1960, it has profited from the production and distribution of lies.

 

Just a few days ago, the Nigerian Media houses lied in most of their publications, saying that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the indefatigable leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) the most peaceful mass movement on planet Earth, denied being the leader of the group. Whereas the IPOB Leader on Wednesday the 18th of January 2022 simply pleaded "not guilty" to the baseless charges file against him, and maintained stoutly that IPOB is not a terrorist organisation.

 Thankfully, the lead counsel to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's team of lawyers, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor has publicly and officially debunked the false narrative, and I quote him verbatim:

 "For the records, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu never denied being the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) while taking his plea, but only STOUTLY DENIED THE FACT THAT IPOB IS A TERRORIST ORGANISATION AND THAT BEING ITS LEADER IS AN OFFENCE, which position is well informed.

 Members of the Public should be well guided that the status of the black market order proscribing IPOB is a subject of Appeal in Appeal Number: APPEAL NO. CA/A/214/2018, pending before the Court of Appeal, Abuja Division".

Barrister Ejiofor went on to describe the claim that Kanu denied IPOB as a product of desperation on the side of the federal government of Nigeria. He said,

"It is only laughable that the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) in their desperate but futile attempt to give a dog a bad name in order to hang it, brought a charge bordering on the status of IPOB, a subject matter of a competent Appeal, where issues have been joined with the same FGN"  he said .
