The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful in a statement accused the Federal Government of hiding behind adjournment to abandon their appeal case against Nnamdi Kanu because they have no case against him.
Powerful stated that “IPOB movement led Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to reiterate once again over what the Federal Government of Nigeria and Supreme Court of Nigeria are doing towards the illegal detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in DSS custody in Abuja.
“It is obvious that the Federal Government of Nigeria has abandoned their appeal against our Supreme Leader at the Supreme Court of Nigeria because they have no case against an honest man devoted to the emancipation of the oppressed and downtrodden in our society.
The spokesman insinuated why FG and the Supreme Court refused to diligently prosecute the case rather than hiding behind adjournment to prevent judgment.
“This being the biggest court case in the history of Nigeria, it is the duty of the government to insist on diligent prosecution of the case rather than running away from their own Court. It is laughable that the person being prosecuted by the Federal Government is the person asking them to come to court. Is this not bizarre?
“What is it that the Federal Government is afraid of in pursuing a case they brought at the Supreme Court against Kanu? We would like to know since the Federal Government and the Judiciary are reluctant to hear this matter, is there any higher authority available to our leader to Appeal to since it is not likely that the Supreme Court of Nigeria will ever hear this matter.”
