The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has said the Nigerian government owes its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, a total of N9.5 billion damages from unapppealed court judgments.
Spokesman of the group, Emma Powerful, disclosed this in a clarification issued by the 4th administration of the IPOB Directorate of State, DOS, on Thursday.
The group highlighted what it described as the unassailable record of Kanu’s Special Counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, noting that the clarification was a direct response to sustained misinformation by agents deployed by the Nigerian state to prosecute the demarketing agenda against Kanu.
According to IPOB, Ejimakor has scored a series of landmark victories at both domestic and international levels in the pursuit of justice and Kanu’s freedom.
However, IPOB expressed regrets that the judgments secured in Kanu’s favour by Ejimakor were disobeyed by the Nigerian government.
“These judgments were brazenly disobeyed by the Nigerian state. All remain subsisting and unoverturned. The Federal Republic of Nigeria, the DSS, the Nigerian Army, and the South-East Governors’ Forum stand thoroughly defeated in multiple courts and cumulatively owe Mazi Nnamdi Kanu a whopping ₦9.5 billion in damages.
“None of these judgments was appealed by the Nigerian Government. No other lawyer who previously represented our leader and IPOB has ever attained this level of success,” IPOB said.
It listed the subsisting judgments won by Kanu and IPOB against the Nigerian Government with Ejimakor’s direct input as follows:
