When people are placed in violent and dehumanizing prison environments, they often end up joining gangs simply for protection. In doing so, they become more deeply embedded in criminal networks.

Nnamdi Kanu’s legal counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, has issued an appeal to prominent Igbo leaders, urging them to rise to the
Perhaps the biggest criticism against the AAC is that Sowore remains the party national chairperson. Many have suggested that it is better for the party to even put a stooge as chairperson who would take all instructions from Sowore just to appear on paper that there is a change of leadership. This is understandable. Ours is a society where even state governors are stooges to godfathers. It is normalised. We prefer pretended democracy to actual democracy. So it is difficult to blame young people(or even old people) who subscribe to this kind of idea.

The Governor, or the FCT Minister in Abuja, can impose penalties on anyone who fails to develop land as required or transfers it without approval. He may also waive conditions or extend deadlines if compliance is difficult or unfair.

Nnamdi Kanu might have hurt a lot of other people and he should be held accountable for that, but if we leave that justice to Tinubu, are we not also using that as a basis for him to crush any dissenting opinion in Nigerian politics by equating them to Nnamdi Kanu. First, they will come for Nnamdi Kanu, but very soon they will come for the pregnant woman who reviewed a tomato paste online, and the only way to do that is to not concede any power to them and ask them to immediately conduct an open, democratic and fair public probe for Nnamdi Kanu in which the Nigerian masses and elected representatives across different interests groups across the country (including those in the South East) can contribute to the course of justice. THIS SHOULD BE OUR DEMANDS! This should be our demand. Not a delayed court trial that Tinubu and Wike can easily influence. If Nnamdi Kanu decides to work for Tinubu’s 2027 re-election today, the same people holding him now will easily release him to use him to subvert the electoral will of the Nigerian masses.

I wonder why police who are invited to secure the Free Kanu protesters say they cannot guarantee their security and safety but can guarantee the safety of anti-Kanu protesters. That’s an open indictment of bias and a self ridicule before the world.
