The Indigenous People of Biafra has said that despite over four years of trial and multiple amended charges, the Federal Government has failed to present any credible or admissible evidence directly linking the pro-Biafran leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, to any act of terrorism, incitement, or violence.
In a press statement released today, the IPOB’s Directorate of Legal Affairs, Research and Global Communications, Onyekachi Ifedi, stated that it has become necessary to address the ongoing misinformation, politically motivated media headlines, and deliberate distortions of facts regarding the ongoing trial of Kanu.
Ifedi, however, urged the public, media houses, and civil society groups to rely on verified legal facts and not propaganda, insisting that no case has been made against Kanu. He called on the Federal Government to stop persecuting Kanu on the basis of outdated laws and prejudicial narratives, adding that all charges against Kanu were legally incompetent.
