Just In: “The Nigerian Chief Judge clapped for Nnamdi Kanu in court todayโsomething that has never happened in the history of Nigerian courts.”
โThey are killing my people daily in Nigeria, and you expect me not to tell them to defend themselves? Nigeria is attempting to wipe out the Igbo race from the face of the earth, and I have every right to urge my people to protect themselves,โ Nnamdi Kanu declared as he strongly responded to claims that he was inciting violence through Radio Biafra.
โI told my peopleโif they kill you, defend yourselves. If they burn down your homes in the North, fight back. That is not incitement; it is self-defense, as recognized under international law,โ Kanu said, firmly addressing the Nigerian legal representatives.
He continued to lecture the courtroom on the principles of self-defense and international human rights, prompting the judge to eventually smile, seemingly moved by the intensity and passion of his argument.
