We the global movement and family of the Indigenous People
of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of the great liberator and
prophet Mazi Nnamdi KANU wish to state unequivocally the rendition of the IPOB
leadership from Kenya to Nigeria since June last year till date as violation of
his fundamental rights.
In abinitio, we wish to place it on record that the criminal
abduction, torture, illegal detention and unlawful transfer of great Leader-
Mazi Nnamdi Okwu Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria constitutes a natural bar to any
prosecution or his further detention in DSS solitary confinement.
Extraordinary rendition is a serious crime under
international law. No civilized nation in the world, more so, those under
common law system of justice, condone kidnapping and extrajudicial transfer of
suspects across international borders, without the authority of law grounded in
an extradition process.
Nigeria court must protect sanctity of the institution of
judiciary by ordering for the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi KANU on the
face of the fundermental violations of international and local laws by Nigeria
Government in the abduction and extraordinary rendition of our great leader and
prophet Mazi Nnamdi KANU.
A plethora of judicial pronouncements from the US to Canada,
UK, New Zealand, Australia and even South Africa under the apartheid regime,
are uniform in their condemnation of extraordinary rendition.
Ironically, the present Attorney General of Nigeria, is also
against Extraordinary rendition but it appears only so, when it concerns people
from his Fulani tribe like the one concerning his dubious officer ACP Abba
Kyari who America intelligence demanded from Nigeria to US. This Government
hypocritical stance was demonstrated in the case of disgraced/suspended ACP
Abba Kyari, who was allowed to undergo extradition proceedings in Abuja to
contest a US warrant of arrest issued against him. But our Leader being of the
Igbo ethnic stock was denied the same due process of law in Nairobi Kenya.
If an obnoxious regime like the erstwhile apartheid regime
in South Africa can be compelled by their own apartheid Appeal Court in
Pretoria, to recognize the illegality of Extraordinary rendition, we therefore
implore Nigerian Courts here in Abuja to prevail upon the present regime to
release our great Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu without further hesitation or delay.
Nigerian Government can amend and prefer new charges from
now till thy kingdom come, the fact of the matter remains that no court in
Nigeria has the authority or jurisdiction to try our Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Nigerian Government is in material breach of a plethora of laws and conventions
both municipal and international. Nigerian Court must send an unequivocal
message that Executive lawlessness and prosecutorial banditry cannot be
tolerated in a constitutional democracy as pretentiously practice in Nigeria.
The image maker of IPOB wish to let public know that
Abubakar Malami lied under oath.
Malami and APC Government are in a mess for perjuring
themselves in Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's matter. Imagine an Attorney General that
doesn’t know the law he is meant to be a Chief Law Officer of. Malami lied and
has persisted in these lies by pleading charges that did not meet the
requirements of SEC. 195 of their Administration of Criminal Justice Act
(ACJA). This is perjury contrary to SEC. 117 of the Criminal Code Act which
state that: Any person, in any judicial proceedings, or for the purposes of
instituting any judicial proceeding, knowingly gives false testimony touching
any matter which is material to any question then pending in that proceedings, or
intended to be raised in that proceedings, is guilty of an offence which is
called perjury”.
By levying the following charges, none of which contains
date, time and place of where the alleged offence was committed, the mandatory
legal requirement to ensure its total compliance, was flagrantly disregarded by
Malami in the breach of SEC. 196 of ACJA.
Unfortunately, Justice Binta Nyako saw this but her maternal
instinct to protect her husband and son facing sham corruption charges and the
wider interest of her Fulani tribe to maintain a stranglehold on the lives of
other ethnic groups in Nigeria led her to pervert the course of justice in her
refusal to dismiss all the charges.
We insist that our great Leader Mazi Nnnamdi Kanu should be
released unconditionally without much delay and hesitation.
