History has already recorded a moment when the Crown stood, in the eyes of many Biafrans, on the wrong side of justice. Today presents a rare opportunity to correct that narrative. To stand, visibly and unequivocally, on the side of human dignity, accountability and peaceful self-determination. Because in the end, the true measure of a Crown is not in its jewels, but in its judgment. And the true test of honour is not in past glory, but in present courage. Thank you. We continue to seek the release of Mazi #NnamdiKanu and all our Biafran brothers and sisters who are illegally held in various Nigerian prisons/DSS dungeons. #FreeNnamdiKanu #FreeNnamdiKanuNow #FreeillegallydetainedBiafrans #BiafraRestoration Uchechigeme Anyanwụụtụtụ Okwu-Kanu. 20.03.2026.

About Wednesday the 18th of March, 2026: It was A Call to Moral Responsibility and Honour and still is: Your Majesties The Royal Family , Members of the Royal Household, and Esteemed Representatives of the Crown, I speak today not in anger, but in solemn appeal, an appeal grounded in history, conscience, and the enduring values that the British Crown has long claimed to uphold: justice, honour, and moral responsibility. Nearly six decades ago, a distinguished Biafran son, Dr. Akanu Ibiam, wrote to the British Crown with both reverence and sorrow. He praised Britain’s Christian heritage, its institutions, and its global influence for good. Yet, in the same breath, he issued a grave indictment: that Britain, knowingly or otherwise, stood on the wrong side of justice during the suffering of his people, the people of Biafra. He returned his honours not out of disrespect, but out of conviction. Because, in his words and actions, honour without justice is hollow. Today, history echoes. The concerns raised in 1967 have not been buried - they have endured. The cries for dignity, safety, and self-determination among Biafrans remain unresolved. The scars of past violence, displacement, and perceived abandonment have not healed. Instead, they have evolved into renewed calls for accountability, fairness, and recognition. At the center of this present moment stands Mazi #NnamdiKanu, a figure whose illegal conviction has become symbolic, whether one agrees with him or not. Of a broader question: How should grievances of identity, security, and political voice be addressed in a modern world that claims to value human rights? Your Majesties, The British Crown today is not the same imperial authority it once was. Yet, it remains a powerful moral institution, one whose voice carries weight across nations, especially within the Commonwealth. That influence is not enforced through power, but through example. And so, the question before the Crown is not one of political control, but of moral leadership. What, then, must be done? 1. Acknowledge the Past with Honesty: History cannot be undone, but it can be confronted. An honest acknowledgment of Britain’s role - direct or indirect, in the suffering of Biafrans during the civil war would not weaken the Crown; it would strengthen its credibility. Silence preserves distance but you acknowledgment will restore trust. 2. Affirm Commitment to Justice and Human Rights: The Crown has long stood as a symbol of justice. That principle must extend beyond borders. A clear and public stance supporting: Due process Fair treatment. Respect for human rights including in the case of #NnamdiKanu, would signal that British values are not selective, but universal. When I reached out through the Bishop of Canterbury, I was not satisfied by your reaction and I am still asking that you restore the moral code of what the Crown stands for. 3. Encourage Peaceful and Democratic Resolution: The call for a referendum, as seen in current movements, reflects a desire for voice, not violence. The Crown can encourage dialogue over the suppression we face. Advocate for peaceful, lawful mechanisms for resolving disputes Promote stability rooted in consent, not coercion. 4. Reclaim Moral Authority Through Action: The greatest strength of the Crown is not ceremonial. Rather, it is moral. To act now, in alignment with justice and compassion, would honour the legacy of those like Dr. Ibiam. Restore faith among those who feel historically overlooked. Demonstrate that Britain’s values are lived, not merely spoken. Your Majesties, This is not a call for intervention, but for principled influence. Not a demand for power, but a reminder of responsibility. Continue in the comment section.... 👇

Human life should never be weighed against money or political influence. The violence affecting Christian communities in Nigeria is real, ongoing, and devastating. Whether driven by BokoHaram/ISWAP, insurgency, or communal conflict, innocent people are losing their lives and that demands sustained attention, not momentary outrage. One of the most troubling patterns today is how quickly serious issues fade from public concern. We move on too fast, while those affected continue to suffer. This is not only a matter for foreign governments or international policy. Local communities, faith leaders, and institutions must also take responsibility through awareness, unity, and practical support for those at risk. Global advocacy matters. But local action is essential. We must stay focused, informed, and committed to the truth because real lives depend on it.
Mike Arnold@MikeArnoldTruth

He Worked for Trump. Now He Works for Tinubu. A recent FARA filing reveals that one of Trump's own former White House advisors is on Nigeria's payroll — working to undercut Trump's own policy. Trump designated Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern on October 31, 2025. His administration is on record naming ISIS as a threat to Christians. He ordered airstrikes against ISWAP targets in Sokoto State on Christmas Day. His people sent 200 troops to Nigeria for counterterrorism training. Now meet Matt Mowers. Mowers was Trump's Senior White House Advisor at the State Department — arrived Day One, January 20, 2017. Worked under Rex Tillerson and Mike Pompeo. His own bio says he handled North Korea, immigration reform, and the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS. He ran Trump's 2016 campaign field operation. He was on the transition team. He ran for Congress twice on his Trump credentials, with endorsements from Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise. And on December 30, 2025 — sixty days after Trump signed the CPC designation — Mowers' firm Valcour, LLC registered as a foreign agent for Nigeria. The fee: $120,000 a month. Read the Filing. This is not a rumor. It is a public record filed with the U.S. Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, Registration #7373, received January 9, 2026. The foreign principal is Maton Engineering Nigeria Limited, owned and managed by Matthew Tonlagha — Vice Chairman of Tantita Security Services. Tantita is the Niger Delta pipeline surveillance company run by Government Ekpemupolo, the former militant known as "Tompolo," who received a multi-billion-naira government surveillance contract from Tinubu's administration. This is not some independent oil and gas contractor. This is money moving through the Tinubu ecosystem. Mowers received $360,000 on December 30 — the initial quarterly retainer. He then disbursed $105,000 to Bridgeway Advocacy and $60,000 to Mount Olives LLC, both listed as subcontractors. Two layers of hands. $165,000 in subcontractor payments in the first two weeks. Those names need to be run down. The stated mission on the federal form: strategic communications and government affairs — with U.S. media, the U.S. Congress, and the Executive Branch — "for the purpose of strengthening the bilateral relationship between the U.S. and Nigeria." Translation: lobby the people who designated Nigeria a CPC country and get them to back off. That Makes Four. Valcour is not the only operation running. Tinubu's lobbying machine now has four confirmed FARA registrations working simultaneously: - DCI Group AZ — $9,000,000 over six months, directed by Nigeria's National Security Advisor, tasked with telling Congress that Christians are being protected. - BGR Government Affairs — $150,000 a month through a Nigerian corporate pass-through, engaging Congress and the White House on U.S.-Nigerian relations. - Adomi Advisory Group — hired by Nigeria's Ministry of Finance to ghostwrite letters submitted directly to the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee — the very committee holding our briefing. - And now Valcour — $720,000 for six months, run by Trump's own former White House man, with two layers of subcontractors doing the quiet work on Capitol Hill. Total known spend: more than $10,000,000. And the contract terms run through June 2026 — right through the congressional briefing season, right through the next USCIRF reporting cycle. This Is the Point. Tinubu didn't just hire lobbyists. He hired Trump's own people. Mowers built his political identity on Trump's coattails. He ran for Congress twice talking about fighting for freedom and conservative values. He worked religious freedom issues at the State Department — his own bio says so. He knows what ISIS does to Christians. He knows what Boko Haram did to northern Nigeria. He knows exactly what the CPC designation means and why it was issued. He took the money anyway. Seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars to run interference against the policy of the man who gave him his career. That is not consulting. That is a choice. The people dying in Plateau State, Borno State, Zamfara State — they don't have $10,000,000 to spend in Washington. They have testimony. They have scars. They have the truth. On March 25, some of them will be in a room on Capitol Hill telling it. Tinubu's machine will be in the hallways. Follow the Money. FARA filings are public. Look them up. Registration #7373 is Valcour/Mowers. Registration #6278 is DCI Group. Registration #5430 is BGR. Registration #7683 is Adomi Advisory. Every dollar is documented. Every firm is named. The only question left is which members of Congress are taking their meetings. Share this. Call your congressman. Ask them if they've heard from any of these firms. Ask them what was said. Then ask yourself who told the truth. Rise. #earthshaker

Today, as we honour Mothers, I want us to pause for a moment and reflect more deeply on the story of humanity. History has often celebrated the voices of great men - the kings, the prophets, the revolutionaries, the leaders who stood at the front of great movements. Their names were written in books, their victories recorded, their journeys remembered. But if we look a little closer, if we listen with a deeper awareness, we begin to see another story that has always been there. The story of women. Women who stood in the background of history but carried the weight of its consequences. Women who nurtured life when the world was uncertain. Women who held families together while nations were being shaped and reshaped. Women whose courage was rarely documented, yet without them the story of humanity could never have continued. Even in the biblical narratives, we often hear about Noah, Moses, David, the apostles. Yet beside these men were women whose strength sustained life itself. On the Ark that carried humanity through the flood, there were women whose names were never recorded. In times of war, famine, and exile, there were mothers protecting their children, wives supporting men called into difficult destinies, daughters navigating a world that did not always see their value. Some women were named, Esther who risked her life to save her people, Deborah who rose as a leader and a judge, Ruth whose loyalty reshaped a lineage, Mary whose faith opened the doorway for a divine purpose to enter the world. But countless others were never named. Yet a name written in history is not what makes a life powerful. What makes a life powerful is the impact of the life that was lived. And when we look beyond the pages of scripture into the story of our world, we see the same pattern. Women like Winnie Mandela and many others across nations - women who stood in the midst of political storms, social upheaval, and struggles for justice. Women who endured separation, imprisonment of loved ones, public scrutiny, and unimaginable pressure, yet continued to hold families, communities, and movements together. These women were not simply standing behind great men. They were standing within the very heart of history itself. And this is something I have come to understand deeply in my journey for the restoration of our peaceful system as a people: the feminine carries a unique and powerful energy, the energy to nurture life, to endure hardship, to hold vision when others lose hope, and to transform pain into wisdom. Motherhood, in its deepest sense, is not only about biology. Motherhood is a Consciousness. It is the sacred ability to nurture potential, to protect purpose, to believe in tomorrow when today feels uncertain. It is the quiet but powerful force that sustains families, shapes generations, and anchors the future of humanity. So today we celebrate mothers - not only for giving life, but for holding life together. We honour the mothers who raised us, the grandmothers whose prayers shaped our paths, the wives who stood beside destiny, the daughters who carry new vision for the future, and every woman whose strength continues to shape the world in ways that may never fully be recorded. Your love, courage, and presence matters even when you are devalued. And whether history writes your name or not, your impact is already woven into the story of humanity. Happy Mother’s Day to every extraordinary woman whose strength, wisdom, and love continue to move the world forward. Aha m bụ (my name is) - Uchechigeme Anyanwụụtụtụ Okwu-Kanu 15.03.2026.

****The Kingdom Doesn’t Work That Way**** The ekklesia was never built to be silent. From the day the Holy Spirit fell in Jerusalem, the pattern has been the same — speak the truth, suffer for it, keep speaking. Paul wrote half the New Testament from a prison cell. John wrote Revelation in exile on Patmos. The authorities of every age have understood instinctively that the voice is the threat — not the army, not the weapons, not the organization. The voice. So they come for the voice first. Kanu’s voice was inconvenient. He said things that powerful people in Abuja did not want said. He reminded a community of its history and its worth. The government called that terrorism. The Kingdom calls it prophecy. I’ve been to Nigeria sixteen times. I’ve walked through IDP camps full of people whose villages were burned and whose names nobody in power knows. The same system doing this to Kanu has been doing it to them for decades — with less fanfare and even less accountability. The machinery is the same. The spirit behind it is the same. ****This Is Your Business**** You don’t have to believe in Biafra to believe in justice. You don’t have to agree with every word Kanu ever said to recognize that what was done to him is a blueprint — the oldest blueprint in the authoritarian playbook. Discredit the organization. Kidnap the man. Try him under a law that no longer exists with no legal bridge connecting it to anything. Convict him without evidence. Put him somewhere he can’t be heard. Wait. They did it to Paul. They did it to Tyndale. They did it to every voice that ever told the truth in a country that preferred comfortable lies. And it worked every time the people around them decided it wasn’t their problem. It is your problem. Not because you’re Nigerian. Because you’re human. And because the machinery that silences one inconvenient voice doesn’t stop there. It never has. Written by: Mike Arnold. #FreeNnamdiKanu #FreeNnamdiKanuNow.

They Kidnapped a Man for Talking Nigerian agents grabbed Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at Jomo Kenyatta Airport in Nairobi in June 2021. No extradition treaty. No warrant. No legal process of any kind. Just grabbed him, threw him on a plane, and brought him to Abuja. Interpol says they had nothing to do with it. The UN called it extraordinary rendition. A Kenyan court ruled in 2025 that he was tortured, held without communication, and that the Kenyan government was complicit. Nigeria’s response to all of that? Nothing. They don’t care what you think. That should bother you. And I don’t mean you, Nigerian. I mean everybody. ***Who Is IPOB and Why Does It Matter*** The Indigenous People of Biafra — IPOB — was born in 2012 out of something simple: the conviction that the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria deserved to be heard. They’d watched a million of their own starve to death in a war that ended in 1970 with no apology, no reconciliation, no reckoning — just a “no victor, no vanquished” announcement and fifty years of political neglect. Kanu built IPOB into a global movement broadcasting that grievance from London through Radio Biafra. Amnesty International documented their marches as largely peaceful. Researchers confirmed it. Then, on September 20, 2017 — the same day it was filed — Nigeria’s Attorney General Abubakar Malami walked into a federal court and got IPOB declared a terrorist organization through a secret, ex parte order. No notice. No hearing. No chance to respond. A sitting judge had already ruled IPOB was not an unlawful society. That ruling was still in force. Didn’t matter. A Nigerian High Court in Enugu later declared the whole proscription unconstitutional. Didn’t matter. They pressed on anyway. That’s not law. That’s what it looks like when a government decides the conversation is over. ****Convicted Under a Law That Didn’t Exist*** On November 20, 2025, Kanu was convicted on terrorism charges and handed a life sentence. The sentencing judge said he deserved death but was showing mercy. Mercy. Here’s what they don’t tell you. The law used to convict him — the Terrorism (Prevention) Amendment Act of 2013 — had been repealed and replaced in 2022. Fully repealed. And the replacement carried no continuation clause — the standard legal bridge that keeps prosecutions alive when old law gives way to new. Without it, the old law is simply gone. Dead letter. Kanu’s lawyers asked the court one simple question, over and over: show us the law under which this man is being tried. The court never answered. Convicted him anyway. And in ten years of proceedings — ten years — the prosecution never proved that a single act of violence was directly caused by anything Kanu said. Not one. The claim was made constantly. It was never proven. The early church got the same treatment: these men turn the world upside down, the accusers said. The charge sounds alarming. The evidence was nonexistent. Pilate knew it. He washed his hands anyway. ****Sokoto**** Then they sent him to Sokoto. More than 700 kilometres from Abuja. From his lawyers. From the courts where his appeal must be filed. Sokoto — deep in the Islamic far north, the spiritual seat of the Fulani caliphate, home of the Sultan, the region that has been pushing Sharia law southward for two centuries and running the playbook on dissenters the whole time. The sentencing judge wrote Sokoto into the order by name and specifically excluded Kuje — the prison in Abuja where Kanu could actually reach a courtroom. In Nigeria, geography is theology. Sending a southeastern political prisoner to Sokoto is a message. It says: we have put you in our house now. You will not come out. That’s the Islamic model in miniature — not argument, not evidence, not law. Walls. Submission enforced by distance and silence. The ummah protects the system. The dissenter disappears. Sharia doesn’t need to win the debate. It just needs to make the debate impossible. Continue in the comment section 👇

I didn’t even realize today was International Women’s Day until I received a heartfelt message that truly moved me. 💜 Lately I’ve been navigating my own health challenges while also caring for my son, Nnabuikem, who had emergency surgery after school last Friday. In the midst of everything, the message reminded me of the quiet strength women carry every day. In it, @Lupita_Nyongo shared her advocacy around uterine fibroids - something that affects up to 80% of women by age 50, yet remains under-researched and underfunded. Through the #MakeFibroidsCount campaign with the Foundation For Women’s Health, the aim is to raise awareness and funding for better, less invasive treatments so that women’s pain is no longer minimized or dismissed. As a Transformative Life Coach working in consciousness, this resonates deeply with me. Healing begins 'when what has been hidden is acknowledged' and supported. Today we celebrate the strength, resilience, and achievements of women everywhere. From pioneers who changed history to the women shaping our future today, your courage, talent, and determination inspire the world. This year’s theme, “Give To Gain,” reminds us that when we support, uplift, and invest in women, entire communities grow stronger. Here’s to equality, opportunity, compassion, and a brighter future for every girl and woman. And to every woman quietly carrying her own battles, you are seen, valued, and deeply appreciated. Happy International Women’s Day! #InternationalWomensDay #GiveToGain #IWD2026 #MakeFibroidsCount #WomensHealth

Empowered Renewal Continues.... Good morning to you, my conscious ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the month of March, where winter gives way to spring. ****Nnabuikem tells me it is the beginning of the Vernal Equinox****. This is not just a change in weather. March carries the energy of movement, of things long buried beginning to stir. It’s the season where clarity returns, where truth becomes harder to suppress, and where voices that have been silenced begin to rise again. Spiritually, March is the third month and the number 3 has always symbolized creation, completion, and divine confirmation. It’s the point where intention becomes reality. It is the threshold where the seed planted in silence begins to break the surface. March is for those who have endured. For those who have waited, watched, and held their ground. It’s a month that whispers, “Now is the time.” Time to speak. Time to move. Time to align your inner conviction with outward action. So walk into this month with your head held high. Hold firmly on your conviction and let it be your compass. What are you ready to birth this March?

MEGA PROTEST & FREEDOM RALLY Against the Royal Reception for President Tinubu. For the Release of Mazi #NnamdiKanu Wednesday, March 18, 2026 | 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM Buckingham Palace & Surrounding Areas in London. Christian genocide****** Mazi #NnamdiKanu’s appeal and release*****. The release of our brothers and sisters unjustly and illegally detained, just like Mazi #NnamdiKanu. The Nigerian government’s false flags against #IPOB and Mazi #NnamdiKanu***** The chaos surrounding the 2027 elections **** The pursuit of a sane, just, and functional system - Biafra. Through it all, one truth remains: there is work ahead, and we must stand where it truly matters, with dignity, integrity, and unwavering commitment to justice. Our voices will continue to echo! This day is an opportunity for people who share these concerns to gather, express their views, and call attention to issues they believe must not be ignored. Many feel that honouring a leader while governance challenges persist sends the wrong message, one that normalizes suffering, insecurity, and lack of accountability. This rally is a chance for individuals to make their voices heard peacefully and publicly. Mark your diary. Take the day off. Stand for what matters to you. Participation is open to all who identify as Biafrans, friends of Biafra, lovers of freedom, and people of good conscience. Bring your families, your networks, your communities. Let your presence speak. #FreeNnamdiKanu #FreeNnamdiKanuNow #FreeBiafransNow #BiafraRestoration

Summary of my yestreen's podcast: It was a call for introspection, responsibility, and leadership, especially in the context of the ongoing illegal and unjust conviction of Mazi #NnamdiKanu by the Nigerian government and the perceived indifference of the British government. 1. The Importance of Peace, Unity, and Internal Discipline •Peace and Unity are described as essential for stability and the realisation of Biafra’s aspirations. Movements often fail not because of external enemies, but due to internal issues such as indiscipline, ego, and lack of strategic understanding. •The absence of a leader is presented as a test of a movement’s maturity and discipline. 2. Lessons from African Liberation Movements •I drew parallels between IPOB and other African liberation movements, notably the ANC during Nelson Mandela’s imprisonment, FRELIMO in Mozambique, ZANU-PF in Zimbabwe, and the Eritrean People’s Liberation Front. •These movements survived and succeeded by maintaining discipline, respecting hierarchy, and subordinating personal grievances to collective goals. •The ANC’s ability to remain united and disciplined during Mandela’s long imprisonment was highlighted as a model for IPOB. 3. The Dangers of Internal Division •As always, I warn against internal attacks on IPOB’s structure, especially while demanding the release of Mazi #NnamdiKanu. •Undermining the institution while seeking its strength is what I call a strategic contradiction. •The importance of structure, discipline, and coordinated effort is emphasised over public debates and social media activism. 4. Critique of Current IPOB Dynamics •Constructive criticism is welcomed, but open destabilisation is seen as harmful. • I distinguished between necessary accountability and actions that weaken the movement’s moral authority and strategic leverage. 5. The Example of Somaliland • I used Somaliland’s recent recognition by Israel as a case study. •Somaliland achieved de facto independence and stability through decades of internal order, dialogue, and discipline, not by seeking external validation or engaging in public noise. •I outlined what Somaliland built before gaining recognition: historical legitimacy, internal order, a culture of dialogue, and patience. 6. Lessons for Biafra from Somaliland •The world only respects and recognises stability, unity, and functioning institutions. •Biafrans are urged to build strong internal governance, unify their political voice, prioritise stability, document historical legitimacy, and form intentional alliances. •I warn against demanding international recognition without first building the necessary foundations at home. 7. Reflection, Responsibility, and Leadership •Reflection: Biafrans are encouraged to honestly assess what they have built, sustained, unified, and protected. •Responsibility: Every Biafran, at home and abroad, must embrace responsible speech, organising, leadership, advocacy, and unity. •Leadership: True leadership is defined by strategy, patience, negotiation, institution-building, sacrifice, and consistency, not by noise or emotional outbursts. 8. The Path Forward • A call for the construction of internal governance structures, establishment of a unified political voice, prioritisation of stability, documentation of historical legitimacy, and building of strategic alliances. •The message is clear: Biafra will not be given; it must be built through discipline, unity, and mature leadership. In Conclusion •I closed with a charge to rise above division, emotional reactions, gossips, blackmails and lies, and to build a nation through strategic unity and mature leadership. •The final message is that by learning from interconnected African histories and committing to dignity and inclusion, Biafran voices and all communities seeking justice can shape a shared future. #ReflectionsforTransformation Aha m bụ- Uchechigeme Anyanwụụtụtụ Okwu-Kanu 22.02.206

On Saturday the 21st of February, I will be speaking on a theme that sits at the heart of our journey as a people - “Empowering Biafran Voices: A Call to Reflection, Responsibility, and Leadership.” This moment is bigger than politics. It is about truth, courage, and the work we must all do to strengthen our collective voice. Join me as we reflect on where we are, what we carry, and the leadership our struggle demands. 7PM Biafran Time. Let every voice rise with purpose.

The 'Red Sea Diving Resort' has played on my mind since November 2025....... Just as the Red Sea Diving Resort operation began quietly, driven by 'humanitarian concern' before becoming widely known, the Knesset discussion on Biafra started as a moral conversation inside parliament before entering broader public awareness. In both cases, what begins as a humanitarian issue can evolve into international attention. For the first time, Biafra’s 'humanitarian situation' has been raised on the floor of the Israeli parliament. Member of Knesset (MK) Ya’akov Margi proposed adding the issue of “the humanitarian situation in Biafra…” to the parliamentary agenda - this extends to Human rights abuses. He is described as having formally requested this topic be debated in the plenary session. Ya’akov Margi debated the urgent conditions in the region and spoke about the need for a morally grounded international position. While this does not yet amount to official foreign policy or diplomatic recognition, it is a powerful milestone! Biafra is no longer invisible in international parliamentary discourse. Visibility creates momentum bearing in mind that conversations at this level matter. Today it is debate, tomorrow it could be diplomacy. האוכלוסייה האזרחית “The humanitarian crisis in Biafra and its impact on the civilian population.” • הצורך בעמדה ישראלית ערכית בזירה הבין־לאומית “The need for a value-based Israeli position in the international arena.” דיון במליאת הכנסת “Discussion in the Knesset Plenum.” #BiafraFreedom #FreeNnamdiKanu #FreeNnamdiKanuNow

Dr. Lawrence Agubuzu, the Eze Ogbunechendo of Ezema Olo Kingdom (Enugu), addressed President Bola Tinubu at the 2026 Nigeria National Traditional & Religious Leaders Summit in Abuja - on Tuesday, 17 February 2026. In his remarks, Agubuzu appealed for the release of #NnamdiKanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (#IPOB). He said that if the federal government no longer wants #NnamdiKanu in Nigeria, he should be returned to Kenya, the country from which he was extradited in 2021, or to London, where he was living prior to re-arrest. Agubuzu warned that continued detention of Kanu is fueling agitation among youths in the South-East, leading to frustration with traditional leaders, whom many now see as out of touch or ineffective. He also criticized what he viewed as a 'DOUBLE STANDARD', noting plans to honor a Yoruba nationalist figure (Sunday Igboho whom they view as #NnamdiKanu's counterpartin the South-East) while #NnamdiKanu remains incarcerated and urged Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to act. These remarks were delivered during the Summit’s goodwill message segment, where various traditional leaders spoke before the President. The summit’s theme was about Strengthening Community Engagement In Health Sector Reforms, not political advocacy, so Agubuzu’s appeal was widely noted as an unexpected political intervention during the event. #FreeNnamdiKanu #FreeNnamdiKanuNow
