Since the past few days, this my X (Twitter) handle has come under intense attacks, and significant shadow-banning. I think the usual suspects are at work again, and it was extended to Facebook, which notified me that my Page “is limited because of a local legal requirement or government request”. See the screenshot. Unfortunately, X (Twitter) doesn’t notify; it simply hides your posts, which slams you with low impressions - that’s the only way you get to know. Now, let me ask: Does it mean that I can’t freely express myself on this App, given that I was interdicted from expressing myself on the streets last year during the #FreeNnamdiKanu protest, was detained for it, and put on trial. I’m even blinded from seeing most of my Followers’ interactions, or experiencing their overall engagements. So, if you see this post, engage it with either a Like, a Repost or a Comment. Let’s join forces and fight this thing together. Yet, if this neck-pressing oppression is never going to end, then they should “Let my people go”.

This video from my good friend, Dr DAVID MATSANGA bears the first-hand, credible and full information on today’s landmark judgement of the Finnish court of appeal in the case of Mazi Simon Ekpa. David wants it widely circulated in the public interest.

BREAKING: From Sokoto, MAZI NNAMDI KANU addresses American Military Veterans of Igbo Descent (AVID) convention, currently holding in Atlanta USA, and declares that: “I will not negotiate the existence of my people. I will discuss referendum and nothing else. My subject is one subject: the right of Biafrans to say, in a free vote, whether they will live as a people under their own roof. I am available for a referendum.” #MnkAtlantaDeclaration. #AVID.

This is to wish you Happy Birthday, the alpha male of our era, MAZI NNAMDI KANU. See you in Sokoto soon to celebrate it, and out of Sokoto to celebrate the next one.

BREAKING: A ranking member of the ISRAELI parliament writes the United Nations, urging prompt actions on the resolution of the United Nations on the unconditional release of MAZI NNAMDI KANU. The details are contained in the screenshots below.

A few minutes ago, I encountered a young man who pleaded with me to clear the air on what he called “leadership tussle” in IPOB. In particular, he asked me if it’s true that MAZI NNAMDI KANU has been replaced as the leader of IPOB. This impromptu video bears my response to him.

Nobody deserves jail for demanding Biafra in strong words By ALOY EJIMAKOR As Nigeria careens into another general election, let it be made clear that a true democracy must first address the underlying grievances driving the persistent call for self determination, rather than using draconian law enforcement and the judicial machinery to silence it. Demanding a separate State is, unarguably, a fundamental human right recognized under the laws of nations. It’s not a crime. Thus, merely advocating for Biafra - regardless of how strong, provocative or harsh the rhetoric may be - does not equate to terrorism or treason. To be sure, imprisoning MAZI NNAMDI KANU and other alleged IPOB members for their speech or stance sets a dangerous precedent against free political expression. Free speech inherently includes the right to express controversial, unpopular and challenging political stances. Locking up people for demanding self-determination only deepens divisions, fuels resentment, and signals that dissent or agitation is criminalized. True nation-building requires dialogue and political engagement, not the criminalization of political aspiration, however inconvenient. Nations have been born from demands far louder and stronger than that of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Scotland held a referendum. Catalonia voted. Many African and European states exist because people refused to remain under arrangements they rejected. Strong language in that struggle is protected expression, not an offence. What is happening today is not a deserved prosecution or imprisonment. It is, instead, an unjust punishment of a political demand, and of those who refuse to be silent about Igbo exclusion, religious terror, and a broken federal arrangement. Words and radio broadcasts are being treated as more dangerous than actual killings (especially in the North) that go unpunished. A state that jails people for asking to leave while claiming to be democratic is not enforcing the law. It is enforcing fear and suppressing dissent by means of punishment. Dialogue and a political settlement, not prison, are the only honest answers to a demand that has become more persistent. Thus, for the sake of Nigeria’s peace and tranquility, the best way forward at this critical time is to free all prisoners of conscience before the 2027 general elections.

Given the deep-seated suspicion of Ndigbo by certain segments of South South (especially the Ikwerre, Ijaw and Ogoni), one wonders whether it’s the Igbos that are holding the oil blocs in South South? Or whether it is the Igbo that killed Saro Wiwa?

PRESS STATEMENT: 30th August, 2026 Igbo Community Association FCT Calls for Inter-Regional Solidarity Against Marginalization and Security Injustices in Nigeria ABUJA, FCT — Following a visitation with Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at the Department of State Services (DSS) facility in Abuja last year, deep concerns have emerged regarding the growing silence surrounding the systemic marginalization of the Igbo people and the ongoing security crises plaguing vulnerable communities across Nigeria. During our discussion on the plight of the Igbo man and woman within the Nigerian state, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu lamented the apparent void in vocal, uncompromised advocacy. Since his detention, key voices and defenders of the South East have largely gone quiet. It is deeply troubling that many prominent leaders have chosen to prioritize personal political favor with the administration over speaking out against the injustices and socio-economic marginalization meted out against our people. Silence in the face of oppression is complicity. The South East cannot afford leadership that prioritizes political convenience over the fundamental rights, dignity, and security of its citizens. Furthermore, the fight against marginalization must not be waged in isolation. There is an urgent, imperative need for all marginalized groups and impacted regions across Nigeria to bind together and push back against systemic injustices. The premeditated killings, ongoing violence, and persistent land-grabbing targeting communities in the Middle Belt and North West represent a grave national disgrace that must end immediately. We call on the people of the South East to join forces with the Middle Belt and other affected regions to build a united front. Together, we must demand an immediate end to senseless killings, unlawful land occupations, and the institutional neglect of minority and marginalized groups. Nigeria can only progress when justice, equity, and absolute security are guaranteed for every citizen, regardless of tribe or region. Signed, Engr. (Nze) Ikenna Ellis-Ezenekwe President General, Igbo Community Association, FCT Contact: 0813 669 7979.

In this video, Prof. Chinedu Nebo (former Minister of Power) frankly speaks on the sectional/religious monopolization of leadership as justifications for Biafra, Oduduwa, etc. He said much more & posed a lot of interesting & controversial questions.

If you’re against this man, or you’re in open or hidden alliance with his enemies, you have no moral right to attack those that support him & working to undo the grave injustice done to him/Ndigbo. If disloyalty is in your DNA, loyalty is in the DNA of legions, seen & unseen.

“Nnamdi Kanu’s new neighbours speak on ‘unusual prisoner’ in Sokoto” - By Musa Ubandawaki Tension is gradually building across Sokoto metropolis as residents struggle to cope with the presence of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu who is currently serving his sentence at the Sokoto Central Correctional Centre. The development has unsettled many homes, businesses, transport operators and community dwellers, with fear spreading particularly across Yar Marina, the heart of Sokoto city where the correctional facility sits. The prison is only a short distance from the Sultan’s Palace. Many residents, including Kabiru Mohammed Gobirawa, a seasoned journalist, admitted that this is the second time they are experiencing such a situation involving a high-profile inmate attracting national attention, frequent high-level visitations and heavy security presence on a daily basis. “It is our hope and prayers that the IPOB leader’s presence in the state will not trigger another wave of fear and tension in the state,” Gobirawa said. Nnamdi Kanu was transferred to Sokoto shortly after a Federal High Court in Abuja sentenced him to life imprisonment. Justice James Omotosho, in his ruling, gave the Department of State Services DSS authority to hold him in any prison within the country, a decision many lawyers and observers have since questioned. Following the sudden transfer, streets around Yar Marina changed overnight. Security checkpoints emerged, patrol teams became more visible, and movement near the facility was heavily restricted. Yar Marina is also host to the headquarters of Police Zone 10 and the office of the Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG. Neighbouring buildings still bear the scars of a 2016 bomb blast detonated by a yet-to-be-identified suicide bomber which killed a policeman while he was praying in a mosque opposite the AIG office. The Boko Haram network under the once dreaded figure Kabiru Sokoto attempted in 2016 to establish a base in the state. Another bomb was detonated that year by a suicide bomber at a divisional police station in Unguwar Rogo, killing only the bomber. A trader, Alhaji Sani Alfa, captured the public mood. According to him, the tension does not stop people from working but it forces them to look over their shoulders constantly. “We woke up to heavy deployment around the prison,” he recalled. “At first we did not understand what was happening until we heard that Kanu had been brought here. Since then things have changed. We are doing business, yes, but with fear and caution.” Another resident, Fatima Mai Masa, said “There are soldiers, police and vehicles moving at every hour. Even children know something is happening,”. The prison has become a point of national attention, drawing lawyers, loyalists, sympathisers and even top political figures. Last week, in a move that startled many locals, the Governor of Abia State arrived at the facility to visit the IPOB leader. The visit sent a ripple of anxiety across the city. Muchedi Dan Marina, a shop owner not far from the prison, said each visit ushers in fresh tension because the security around the area doubles instantly. Last Sunday, Kanu received his lawyer, Dr Maxwell Opara, who visited alongside four associates. His colleague, Aloy Ejimakor, echoed the sentiment on social media, insisting that relocating Kanu had placed unnecessary barriers between him, his family and legal counsel. “He has been moved far away from everyone who needs access to him,” Ejimakor wrote. Today, Sokoto walks with caution. Residents speak in whispers, businesses operate with an eye fixed on the prison walls and tension lurks beneath the quiet wind that drifts across Yar Marina. Security remains heavy. Anxiety remains real. And the entire city waits, unsure of what tomorrow brings or how long this unsettling atmosphere will last.

On a social outing with one of our faithful brothers from America, as he concludes his visitation to MAZI NNAMDI KANU. He’s returning to the US with a load of goodwill messages from #MNK to our diaspora brethren. Stay tuned for more cheery updates. #ContentCreator-at-Law. Lol.

Just feel this popularity, this electricity & unmatched charisma when MAZI NNAMDI KANU entered Ebonyi State, circa 2017. Is this what they fear? Is this what his traducers are envious & jealous of? If so, he has even become much more popular today. Sorry! Video credit: Somto Okonkwo.

MONDAY ESSAY: BIAFRA WAS NOT DEFEATED I have said this before and I am repeating it. I commanded the last battle for the defense of Uli airport, so anything I talk about, concerning the end of the war, is more of an eye-witness account. I am telling young Nigerians particularly, young Igbo people who continue to read all these books citing the ‘fall of Biafra’, ‘the defeat of Biafra’, ‘the surrender of Biafra’, those are not true. Strictly for the purpose of history, those narratives are not true. the truth about it, is that Nigeria was better equipped than Biafra, Nigeria had upper hand but Biafra was resilient. We fought like people who had no other choice. The way we perceived the war was such that we were rejected, we did not feel safe in Nigeria anymore. Our people were slaughtered and massacred for a cause they know nothing about. They said Igbo people caused the coup, of course that was also a lie, we did not cause the coup. Thousands of Igbo people were killed for no reason. So we did not have any choice, we resolved it was better to die fighting in defense of our people. That’s why we, the young men of those days joined the army and took up arms. We already made up our mind to pay the supreme price in defense of our fatherland, so in spite of our shortcomings and inadequacies, we were a fearless and resilient army of passionate young men who were willing to die for their homeland. So like I said, the end of the civil war was negotiated and I say this because I was on ground. If not for the negotiation, Biafra war could have continued for 10, 12 or even 15 years because it is not that easy to utterly defeat somebody in his own ground without a long-drawn hostilities. If you come to one place, he will go to another place, and guerrilla warfare was an option. Our own generation of young people at the time were so determined and there was no way we would have surrendered at the time. We couldn’t have surrendered. The type of people we had in Biafra were not people who could have surrendered like that. I will also like to add that when the negotiation came to our attention, we the younger officers held a meeting, we didn’t want to surrender, we wanted to go on but it was General Effiong that saved the situation. He told us that it was not defeat, that it is a negotiated ending for the war. So it is not a question of history recording it that our generation were defeated while fighting for survival. So we want our young people to know that we their parents fought well, willingly placing our lives on the line and we were not defeated. It was Effiong that first told us that there will be no victor, no vanquished. It’s important to note that Ojukwu did not have a Biafran secession plan ab-initio, he believed in Nigeria. But it was the Nigerian government that forced him into the Biafra struggle, in defense of his people who were being slaughtered across the country. Infact, Ojukwu helped to neutralize the Chukwuma Nzeogwu coup alongside Aguiyi Ironsi who led the army at the time. But Nigerians plotted and killed Ironsi. So we didn’t feel any safe at all. So there was no defeat, there was no surrender. It was a negotiated settlement to have one Nigeria. I am saying this again; we were not defeated. Yes, Nigeria had upper hand but we were resolute, we manufactured our equipment and military hardware. So I do not want our children tomorrow to say we were defeated. I am one of the people privy to all the meetings held. The end of the war was negotiated by both sides in the war. Credit: Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu
