"Release Nnamdi Kanu Unconditionally" — Bianca Ojukwu Urges FG

 A renewed call has gone to the Federal Government to unconditionally release the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, from prison.


The wife of the late Biafran leader, Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu, who made the call in Owerri, weekend, at the 11th Memorial Lecture of Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu, reasoned that “there cannot be any cogent reason for defying orders made by courts of competent jurisdiction in the land, as it will amount to self help”.

“As well celebrate my late husband, we must also recall that there is no family in Igboland that did not lose a single soul during the 30-month old war. We will continue to remember all these people that died during that fratricidal war.”

Mrs. Ojukwu said: “I plead with the Federal Government to let Mazi Nnamdi Kanu have his freedom. I call for his unconditional release from prison. We are in a democracy. No country that brazenly hold its citizens in captivity, ever progresses, develops or creates the spirit of patriotism in the citizenry.

“Nobody can hold the Igbo spirit down. This is one truism many people have refused to appreciate. Ndigbo have always opted to hold our heads held very high, than to die on our knees, begging.

“At no time in Igbo history, have we seen the type of brutality and wickedness, like we are seeing now[/b]. Nigeria has sadly become a crematorium of sorts. Our youths see nothing but a total wasteland ahead of them. Federal Government presence is non-existent in the South East”

“The economy has irretrievably collapsed. The system failure has affected virtually everything and everybody. Government can no longer guarantee the preservation of life and protection of property. The system collapse has also affected trade, commerce, agriculture, education and all facets of life and living.

“There are people who sit in the comfort of their homes and constantly steal the oil in our communities and roll in dollars.

2023 is around the corner. We must hold our leaders to account for their deeds or misdeeds, actions or inactions. This is payback time.”

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...

 There is no refuting that the significant expense of diabetes treatment in Nigeria has prompted an expansion in the awkward and unnecessary passing of people living with the illness as of late. The expense of medications and examination of diabetes have represented an extraordinary test as more than two third of the number of inhabitants in the patients can't bear to purchase the medications and check themselves consistently which most times prompted confusions and, in some cases, passings. This was the situation of Racheal Utom, a 38-year-old woman who lost her passed on appendage to type 2 diabetes and was nearly losing the right a year later, because of her failure to stringently buy her medications and lead her examinations. Mrs Utom, who is engaging with diabetes mellitus, said the specialist told her a month prior that her five toes have been contaminated and right now rotted, yet they were making an effort not to remove the excess appendage. Utom, who uncovered that there w...
