IPOB’s Theatrical Search for Nnamdi Kanu's Acquittal
By Chineze Emelieze,
In its usual staged attempt to cause confusion and coerce presiding judges into arriving at rulings favourable to it, IPOB has once again resorted to demanding that Justice Kolawole Omotosho must strike out the ongoing charges against Nnamdi Kanu. Ridiculous! They have added that the current charges against Kanu amounted to a resurrection of the repealed Terrorism Prevention Amendment Act 2013. Laughable, right? In IPOB’s short-sighted insinuation, acts of mass murder committed and charged by the Terrorism Prevention Amendment Act 2013 – repealed in 2022 by the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act (TPPA) 2022 (Section 97) stand forgiven. And as usual, the powerful Emma signed and circulated the comical statement in the hopes that Justice Omotosho could be cowed by it.
