Advice to @officialABAT:

@MBuhari put you in a dilemma by handing you an incarcerated #NnamdiKanu who’s release is imminent and close.

MNK’s favorable Court Judgments give him a Strong edge on the Negotiating table and ensures you can’t take undue advantage of his...

temporary incarceration.

Although MNK has spent 2yrs in Solitary Confinement and it’s just a few Months to his release by the Supreme Court, the best bet for your administration is to release him immediately and take the credit for using executive powers to do the right thing. Image
This would make Negotiations with him more cordial, balanced and fruitful.

But if he is left in Solitary confinement until his eventual release by the Supreme Court, there’ll be nothing to negotiate afterwards.

My name is Psalm. Yes, Psalm. Boring, right? But that’s the name my mom called me when I was born. My Dad had wanted to call me Job, but my mom would not have it.
“Have you seen any man called Job that wasn’t a carpenter or a bricklayer,” she had fired at my dad.
“All the people named Job na so so suffer suffer!”
Mom certainly hadn’t heard of Steve Jobs (well, after he moved out of the garage) plus my oldman had suffered so much, having lived from hand to mouth since he lost his job thirty years ago, yet his name wasn’t Job.
So, there was more to suffering than being called an ordinary name.
“Let’s call him David,” my mom had suggested. “It is simple and short. And remember he killed Goliath.”
“David? The man who stole another man’s wife? I can’t call my son David.

This is a recap from watching and listening to #NnamdiKanu, IPOB leader’s most anticipated speech from the land of Israel, 6pm, 21/10/2018. The address lasted approximately 45mins. He’s indeed alive. I will recount what I got from the live broadcast. Follow the thread.
Army invaded his house on the 14th of September 2017. They came to kill or capture him. He was indeed preparing to go to court. But he said the government was afraid of the statement he made that he will bring 2m Biafrans to his next court appearance in Abuja to expose Nigeria.
In the negotiations, he specifically made two demands from government: either a “referendum or devolution” (his words),and the government was not forth coming with anything substantial. But instead came to kill him and in the process killed 28 people in the invasion of his house.
