Nnamdi’ Kanu's father-‘My son ‘ll rather die than back out of Biafra struggle’

The father of detained radio Biafra exec,Nnamdi Kanu has called for his son's release, insisting he won't stop fighting for Biafra.. HRM (Eze) Israel Okwu Kanu (JP) a traditional ruler of Isiama Afara,in Umuahia,Abia state sat down with the SUN where he talked about his son's struggles 

When asked how he feels about Nnamdi’s arrest and detention, he has this to say:
“Nnamdi is my first son. His arrest pains me a lot; it is not when I start crying like a child before people will know that his arrest is paining me to the marrow. That chap has no problem, he is not a noisemaker, rather he abhors injustice. Since he was born, he had not exchanged words with we, the parents or even the siblings, always sitting quietly when we are having family meetings, but he always made quality inputs”.
On his son's arrest for fighting for Biafra, he said

“It was not justified at all be­cause he is fighting for the freedom of the Igbo with his mouth and without a machete or gun. It is only that mouth Nnamdi is using to demand the freedom of the Igbo and whether the Federal Government likes it or not, he will continue to speak just as I used to do which made me to represent my people three times as a local government councillor. Talking runs in our blood stream and it will be difficult for Nnam­di to stop talking”.

 He appealed to the FG to release his son stating..
 “I will first of all start with the Federal Govern­ment, I’m appealing to them to release my son, he has not come to wage war against the country and the Nigerian constitution made provision for free­dom of speech and nothing will debar him from speaking. President Muhammadu Buhari should understand that the agitation for Biafra did not start with Nnamdi. If Buhari has any bad plans against Nnamdi, he should hands off because all of us want that freedom. As for Ndigbo, they should join Nnamdi in seeing to the actualization of Biafra. I’m not always happy that my son is putting his all in the struggle, the other man, Uwazuruike will be some­where behaving as if Nnamdi is his enemy. I’m also not happy that since Nnamdi was arrested, no gov­ernor from this zone or a known politician for that matter has ever asked for his release, it is not good. I don’t know whether they are afraid to speak out

    1. I don't no y dose pple fighting for biafra doesn't want peace. War isn't good. When I watched Nelson Mandela's long walk to freedom,despite his imprisonment for 27yrs,all he agitated was PEACE and dats part of d reason e seperated from Winnie cos all Winnie wanted was war. Let's clamour for peace for Christ sake. Biafra won't stand d test of time

    2. You see greed for power the only motive behind this biafra agitation. . This type of people never love igbo people. Like Ojukwu who flew his own children and wife abroad for safety before he started the selfishness war. I think ibos should learn from this so that the poor innocent hard working ibo man might not be got caught up in crafty selfish power hunger politicians who are branding themselves heroes of change , development and cessation from Nigeria.

    NIGERIA as a COUNTRY is INDIVISIBLE

    What Ojukwu, a trained military man COULDN'T achieve, Nnamdi Kanu can't even come CLOSE!!!

    I SAID IT!!!!!!!

    It is easy for him to be dishing Propaganda on the radio! When the FIGHT starts, he will scamper for SAFETY, like Ojukwu who RAN to Exile in Ivory Coast!!!

    1. Psalms 110 The Lord and His Chosen King[

      1 The Lord said to my lord,
      “Sit here at my right side
      until I put your enemies under your feet.”
      2
      From Zion the Lord will extend your royal power.
      “Rule over your enemies,” he says.
      3
      On the day you fight your enemies,
      your people will volunteer.
      Like the dew of early morning
      your young men will come to you on the sacred hills.[b]

      4
      The Lord made a solemn promise and will not take it back:
      “You will be a priest forever
      in the priestly order of Melchizedek.”[c]

      5
      The Lord is at your right side;
      when he becomes angry, he will defeat kings.
      6
      He will pass judgement on the nations
      and fill the battlefield with corpses;
      he will defeat kings all over the earth.
      7
      The king will drink from the stream by the road,
      and strengthened, he will stand victorious.

  7. It's quite a pity no Eastern governor has spoken or done anything contrary to his release, we are in democracy, even though I know Biafra is far fetched given that PMB is now the president, but his release should be imminent, he has committed no crime.. !!

      The offence of Treason is a capital offence which is defined by
      section 37(1) of the Criminal Code Act
      as follows;
      a.

      Any person who
      levies war
      against the state, in order to
      intimidate or overawe
      the president or the governor of a state is guilty of treason and is liable to the punishment of death.

      Any person conspiring with any person, either within or without Nigeria, to levy war against the state with the intent to cause such leving of war as would be treason if committed by a citizen of Nigeria, is guilty of treason and is liable to punishment of death. Again, by
      section 38 of the Criminal Code.

  11. I wonder why my Igbo brothers are senseless, Ojukwu fought for Biafra yet and lost yet he contested for presidency under Nigeria and lost. He died a Nigerian and was given a befitting state burial. Am Igbo and am not in support of Biafra and it will never happen.#OneNigeria
