No court orders kanu’s release, says Reno Omokri.
The former media aide to ex-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Reno Omokri has said that no court orders kanu’s release.
Nnamdi Kanu, is the detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
Omokri, while reacting to the comments made by the former Anambra governor and 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, took to his official social media handle to make this known.
Omokri said that Obi was lying by saying court has ordered Kanu’s release from the detention
“Peter Obi lied. There is no subsisting court order ordering Nnamdi Kanu’s release from DSS custody.” Said, Omokri.
He added that, the comparison which Obidients made between Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Adeyemi, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, is no other things than propaganda because their cases are not the same.
“…And the comparison that Obidients make between Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Adeyemo, AKA Igboho, is propaganda. Their cases are not the same.”Omokri added
Omokri said further, “Contrary to Peter Obi’s claims, in a unanimous ruling on December 15, 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that Nnamdi Kanu had a case to answer for treason. After that, on May 20, 2024, the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja ruled that Nnamdi Kanu should be denied bail. If Peter Obi or any of his Obidients can show a subsequent court order made countering the Supreme Court’s judgment of Friday, December 15, 2023, or the Federal High Court’s order on Monday, May 20, 2024, I will pay the first person to produce that judgment $10,000.
“Failing that, Mr. Peter Obi is counselled to stop spreading IPOB propaganda that a subsisting court judgment orders the release of Nnamdi Kanu.
“The difference between Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu is that whereas Nnamdi Kanu made public broadcasts instructing his supporters to kill officers and men of Nigeria’s military and paramilitary forces, and thereafter, unknown gunmen suspected to be members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra did kill over one hundred security personnel in the Southeast, Sunday Igboho did no such thing.
“Sunday Igboho was declared wanted by the Buhari administration for the act of waging a militia war against Nigerian herders of Fulani background in parts of Oyo State on the accusation that they were behind d the spate of kidnappings for ransom in the area.
“When he was apprehended in Benin Republic, Sunday Igboho took the Beninoise Government to court and, on October 9, 2023, defeated them in court and secured his freedom. He thereafter left Benin Republic for Germany and, on December 5, 2023, defeated the Benin Republic Government again in the ECOWAS court, which ordered Benin to pay him 20 million CFA.
“The Nigerian Government did not free Sunday Igboho. A Beninoise court freed him, and was then further protected by the ECOWAS court. He and Nnamdi Kanu are not in the same class.
“Now, watch as they insult me, because they cannot fault the facts I have presented.”
