In a recent statement, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) expressed a strong warning, asserting that if their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, falls into the hands of Nigeria, then Nigeria and its leaders will face the consequences from Biafra.

The pro-Biafran group, through its spokesperson, Emma Powerful, expressed disappointment with the United Nations, European Union, African Union, and ECOWAS for their silence regarding Kanu's nearly two-year detention by the Nigerian Federal Government.

The group accused the Supreme Court of exhibiting bias in handling Kanu's case and claimed that it was colluding with the government, which allegedly seeks Kanu's demise in detention due to his deteriorating health.

IPOB raised concerns about a potential conspiracy to harm Kanu, suggesting that the Department of State Services (DSS) may have administered a slow-acting poison to him, contributing to his declining health.

The group criticized the Nigerian Supreme Court for refusing to entertain Kanu's lawyers' appeal on the grounds of his deteriorating health. Instead, they were given a lengthy adjournment period of four months, despite the Court of Appeal having already discharged and acquitted Kanu. IPOB also expressed disappointment with the silence of international organizations and human rights groups regarding these alleged abuses.

With Kanu's health continuing to deteriorate and the Nigerian government disregarding lawful orders, IPOB declared its commitment to ensuring that their leader does not perish in detention.

They emphasized that Kanu's freedom is symbolic of the liberation of the entire black race. IPOB asserted that Kanu is not a criminal, terrorist, or involved in Nigeria's history of corruption. They urged the international community, particularly the African Union, not to hold IPOB responsible for any potential repercussions resulting from Nigeria's continued disobedience to both domestic and international laws in Kanu's case.

When approached for comment, the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, declined to address the issue.

In  North Africa where Nigerian students are said to be contributing money to transport themselves to neighboring Egypt where they are to be airlifted to Nigeria.

One of the Nigerian students trapped in crisis-torn Sudan, Abubakar Sadiq, said the drivers of the buses conveying the first batch of 588 students collected their passports from them.

In a viral video, the affected students are seen venting their frustrations after being held in the desert for some hours by the drivers with no help in sight.

This is despite the 1.2 million dollars set aside for road transportation and security of the evacuees.

Sadiq said the drivers are insisting that the documents will not be returned to them until they receive full payments from the Nigerian government.

The student, who spoke to Channels Television, is among the about 1,500 Nigerian students who are waiting to be evacuated from that country where fighting is continuing.
