You have gone beyond your wish abi? Kanu is no more. You can not arrest a corpse or can you? http://oduduwaliberationnews.blogspot.com/2017/09/nnamdi-kanu-has-been-assassinated.html?spref=fb
Yes, it is unconstitutional the way Kanu has chosen to go about his quest. But two wrongs don’t make a right, so supporting the Army in it’s declaration of iPOB as a terrorist organization is, in itself, a deviation from the constitutional norm just as his (Kanu’s) approach has proven to be. The army has no rights under our constitution to declare any Nigerian or association as terrorist. Since you claim to be operating under a democratic umbrella yourself, I do hope you appreciate this fact. We should be careful and avoid being carried to extremes by our emotions…
this country Nigeria is gone!!! How can one nonsense group of people calling for arrest of another ethnic whereas during their own time no one see this nonsense group call nonsense name.
I bet it’s high time we go our separate way
We will review and take appropriate action.
