The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has condemned the attitude of Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court Abuja over the way she is handling the case of its Leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who is currently facing trial before her court.

The group expressed shock at what it described as obvious prejudice and bias on her part during the last court proceedings which resulted in the adjournment of the case to January 19 and 20, 2022.

IPOB in a statement on Friday by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said: “We are aware that Justice Nnyako is working with DSS to humiliate our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu but the world should hold her accountable for her actions.

“Justice Binta Nyako is engaging in judicial rascality and impunity at the behest of the federal government of Nigeria aimed at keeping our Leader in perpetual detention without trial. This rascality only portrays that Binta Nyako is simply playing the script handed over to her by the Fulani caliphate of which she belongs to.

“One thing the judge must understand is that we are determined in our irrevocable resolve to restore Biafra. No amount of intimidation, persecution or prejudice by the oppressors or their agents can derail our match to freedom and the ultimate restoration of the Sovereign State of Biafra.

“It is impossible for the Fulani to dictate to IPOB and the present generation of Biafrans. They may have done so to our fathers and elders but cannot dictate to the present generation of Biafrans.

“Our elders, traditional rulers, religious leaders and political elite who are begging IPOB to soft pedal must take serious note of the travesty and shenanigans playing out in Justice Binta Nyako’s Court room. Our patience is not infinitely elastic.”
