The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), under the supreme leadership of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on Tuesday issued an urgent and resolute statement in response to the declarations of Bishop Godfrey Onah, saying that his courageous intervention reinforces its longstanding position that Britain’s enduring colonial legacy and subsequent diplomatic posture have profoundly contributed to the structural imbalances.<\/p>\n
It also cited historic injustices inflicted upon Biafra and its people, including the continuing persecution of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.<\/p>\n
The group in a statement by its media and publicity, Secretary, Emma Powerful said that the veil has completely fallen, and the architecture of oppression is laid bare:<\/p>\n
The statement read in part, “The Shadow of British Legacy, Legal Subversion, and Algorithmic Warfare: We blame Britain alone for complicity in the criminal abduction of Onyendu in Kenya and his extraordinary rendition to Nigeria, the blatant disregard for United Nations calls for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu\u2019s release, the brazen disobedience of appellate court discharges, the legally impossible conviction on repealed laws, and the reliance on harsh legal measures. <\/p>\n
“These actions reflect a direct continuity of British geopolitical strategies born out of the 1967 civil war era\u2014where foreign economic interests prioritized state survival over justice. <\/p>\n
“Furthermore, Britain’s complicity extends into digital and media warfare: a simple search for “Nnamdi Kanu” on global search engines like Google reveals an overwhelming dominance of biased, anti-Nnamdi Kanu propaganda generated by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and Western allies, systematically burying the truth, silencing the atrocities against Biafrans, and shaping a false public narrative to justify his unlawful treatment.<\/p>\n
“The Sokoto Transfer and the Failed Political Mind Games: The political maneuvering surrounding Onyendu’s trial, sentencing, and subsequent transfer to Sokoto Prison was a calculated Yoruba led-APC ploy to deliver our leader to the Caliphate as an ethnic trophy in a desperate bid to secure Northern votes against candidates like Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.”<\/p>\n
IPOB however stressed that the strategy has backfired spectacularly, noting that discerning Fulani leaders and the Northern populace are deeply incensed, openly rejecting being used as props in such childish, desperate political mind games while the economy and nation collapse.<\/p>\n
While exposing Judicial Compromise and the Omotosho Precedent, IPOB said that though respected figures like Bishop Onah have rightly diagnosed the historic scale of foreign exploitation, that blockade, and military violence have kept the South-East region and by implication entire Nigeria subjugated.<\/p>\n
It urged the public to recognize the biased judicial narrative. <\/p>\n
The group added, “Justice Omotosho\u2019s courtroom claims that Onyendu “hates the North with a passion” are deliberate distortions. Any person intimate with Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s broadcasts will testify that he does not hate any ethnic group; he fights strictly against a corrupt, neo-colonial structure designed to trade the blood and resources of the masses for elite political survival.<\/p>\n
“Our Stand: The courage demonstrated by Bishop Onah represents just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the overwhelming groundswell of support for the peaceful emancipation of Biafra, championed tirelessly by Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. <\/p>\n
“To make matters worse, despite Onyendu holding British citizenship, the British government has chosen a path of active media suppression, diplomatic silence, and inaction, effectively looking away while his fundamental rights are ignored. No amount of search engine manipulation, judicial blackmail, political horse-trading, or international collusion will stop the ultimate triumph of justice.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
