| Mazi Nnamdi Kanu; hailed by his people after court hearing |

The Federal High Court Abuja on December 1, 2016 witnessed a tip of the courageousness and fearlessness which is a common trait amongst the Indigenous People of Biafra led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. After Binta Nyako denied the bail application for Nnamdi Kanu and three other defendants, the defendants refused to be intimidated by the prison warders and SSS agents who were rough handling them into the prison van in order to shield them from the press corps. What was exhibited by Benjamin Madubugwu even while surrounded by gun wielding security men lies deep in millions of Biafrans outside the prison.
Unsurprised, President Muhammadu Buhari has constantly reminded the Indigenous People of Biafra that he is an arch enemy to the restoration of Biafra, as he is unrepentant over his direct participation in the perpetration of the Biafra Genocide of 1967-70. Buhari has unequivocally stated he will rather drown himself and everyone along than allow the disintegration of Nigeria. While Buhari is yet to drown himself, the people of Biafra have countlessly been slaughtered by the Nigeria Military under directives from him. President Buhari has made it a mantra to everyone under the auspices of South east who come visiting the Aso Rock Presidential Villa that those agitating for restoration of the sovereign state of Biafra should forget it because it will be difficult to achieve.
What is more difficult than death? Has the shooting of thousands of innocent Biafrans stopped the clamor for Biafra? One of the song by Biafra protesters and demonstrators that stuck into memory goes as below:
How many Biafrans, Buhari go kill?
How many Biafrans, Buhari go kill?
Hey! Them go kill us tire!
Hey! Them go kill us tire!
Hey! Hey!! Hey!!! Them go kill us tire
How many Biafrans, Buhari go kill?
With merriment and loud rendition of the above song, vibrant and young Biafrans marched in a peaceful and organized procession, raising only the Biafra flag to their death as they are targeted and shot to death by the Nigeria Army and police. What is more difficult than that?
What about the abduction and imprisonment of hundreds of Biafrans for treason? Has that in any way impended the desire of the people of Biafra to gain their independence? Ofcourse not! There are scores of scarred and injured victims that still joyfully shout “Biafra or Death.”
The Indigenous People of Biafra have resolved to restore Biafra or die trying, as they have continually exhibited before the murderous Nigeria Army and police. President Buhari may continue to kill defenseless Biafrans and to hold Nnamdi Kanu in detention but he will be presiding over a stagnant country that is on a brink of total collapse. Buhari should have known that this time, he is fighting a lost battle after failing to stop the broadcast of Radio Biafra. Buhari is ignorant that the sophistication of the Avengers as he rightly confessed is fueled by the clamor for Biafra. Buhari can launch whatever military exercise he wishes to launch in Biafra land but it will be futile just like Operation Crocodile Smile.
Biafra is an ideology that will never be put to rest until the sovereign state of Biafra is restored. The suppression and oppression will continue but there shall always be a catalyst towards the independence of the Biafra people. These generation has shown that there is nothing to live for except the restoration of Biafra. President Buhari and his cabal have shown that they are heinous and uncivilized in nature, while the Indigenous People of Biafra, exhibiting tactfulness and wisdom have brought the clamor for Biafra to the level it must be addressed or anarchy will follow suit. The souls of innocent Biafrans killed because they demanded for the release of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and the restoration of Biafra will not rest until Biafra is restored.
