NNAMDI KANU, AN EPITOME OF TRUTH: SELF-DETERMINATION IS NOT A CRIME, NNAMDI KANU MUST BE RELEASED UNCONDITIONALLY

It is pathetic and indeed very laughable that Nigeria, under President Muhammadu Buhari is not literate about the difference between self determination and treason or treasonable felon.
Well, it does not come to Biafrans as a surprise, after all, there is a popular adage which has it that illiteracy is a marrow sickness.
There is nowhere in the world where self determination is being labeled as treason or treasonable felony, apart from Nigeria.
Therefore, Nnamdi Kanu and other Biafrans whom the Nigeria government in collaboration with British government kidnapped and are being detained extra judicially must be released with immediate effect.
However, let us look at the huge differences between self determination and treason.
Self Determination: Self determination is simply a universal right of all indigenous peoples who are under oppression to invoke their right to have a favourable and an independent state and to chose their own government and political system.
Meanwhile, treason is simply an act of over-throwing or attempting to overthrow a ruling government by some groups or individuals, mainly by political opposition to form their own government.
With this simple analysis of the two, one begins to wonder why Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and other Biafrans who are peacefully, exercising their lawful and universal right for self determination are charged for treason/treasonable felony for invoking their right to self determination.
Recall that few months ago, President Muhammadu Buhari, at the UN General Assembly, agitated on-behalf of the people of Palestinian and other Sahara region, while he has continued to clamp down on innocent Biafra activists in Nigeria.
Furthermore, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB has never for once shown any interest in the bloody evil politics of Nigeria, not to talk of overthrowing any government apparatus in Nigeria.
Secondly, Nnamdi Kanu {POC} and others while exercising their right to self determination, has never committed any crime or asked anyone to do so for them. Therefore, all the charges leveled against them are not only shameful and baseless, but also an affront to the principles of self determination.
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to Biafrans, is an epitome of truth and self determination.
Finally, as Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and others are set to once again appear before Abuja federal high court on 13th of December 2016, for a ruling on the application by the Nigerian government for a masquerade trial, we wish to draw the attention of the presiding judge, Hon Justice Binta Nyako, to know that Nnamdi Kanu's case has a global interest; therefore, must be heard in public without shielding of witnesses if the Nigerian government has any.
