Nnamdi Kanu Writes Emotional Poem From Kuje Prison

Nnamdi Kanu, the embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has released a poem from his detention cell in Kuje Prison in Abuja.

The poem, which was sent by IPOB to NAIJ.com on Thursday, May 12,  was said to have been released through a lawyer representing Kanu.

Poem below:

I am Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous people of
Biafra. and also the director of radio Biafra.
I have restored Biafra without a gunshot,

I have destroyed Nigeria with truth and

I have conquered Nigeria with Chiukwuokikeabiama.

They waited for me to bomb and shoot,
but i refused to use metallic bullet and atomic bombs,

I only used intellectual bullets and bombs and I have
flawlessly won the war.

I stood just ordinary radio station and propagated
the gospel of Chukwuokikeabiama,
the word of God is power and that power have
destroyed Nigeria and restored Biafra.

I observed freedom of speech and fearlessly preached
truth,

I am fearless even before death because am prophesy of
over
400 years ago.

If God is not man then his prophesy shall come to pass
and those that
stand against God will know Chiukwuokikeabiama
is creation.

I have lawfully followed stipulated procedures for self-
determination and have never been involved in any form of violence or crime,

I have always told you Biafrans to be disciplined and law-abiding and you have made me proud.

I am grateful that we are whiter than white and whiter
than snow.

We have no dishonour neither do we have any
spot, they have killed us mercilessly and we have never killed back yet they arrested us and tried to break us to betray Biafra.

They arrested me for saying the truth, nothing but the
truth.

They arrested me for demanding Biafra, they arrested
me for embracing freedom of speech.

They conspired and arrested me for being lawful and
demanding attention.

They arrested me because peace is prohibited
in Nigeria; they arrested me because dialogue is impossible in Nigeria.

They arrested me because I refused to take up arms,
they arrested me because I defeated them intellectually.

When a man is defeated by reason, he sought to
discharge his frustration on justice. I am a prisoner of conscience and I am sure the world still have conscience.

I am Nnamdi Kanu, I have chosen death, I shall die for
Biafra and let my death give my generation a better life,
let my death be a guarantee for a better future, let my death be your smile and let my death end your
marginalization, subjugation, slavery and tears.

I am Nnamdi Kanu the lion that chose death over the
abuse of his people.

I instead die than renounce Biafra, give me
Biafra or kill me is where I stand.

I have been arrested for nothing, I am a prisoner
of conscience,
they are here to break me, to make me renounce
Biafra but they don’t know me, they don’t know Biafra is
my religion and they don’t know renouncing Biafra is a death sentence, is like committing suicide.

In their widest dream shall I commit suicide and
I assure them that days of reckoning will come, for Chiukwuokikeabiama shall avenge the death of His children.

I have taken an oath with the name of God that I shall
never betray or give up Biafra because I knew this day
will come.

I am physically and psychologically prepared for this
period.

I took the oath and staked my family, my generations
and everything I am, and so giving up Biafra in any condition is impossible, even at gun point, I will only
accept my inevitable death than renounce Biafra.

I have been arrested before but this time is more
severe, the harder the price is the closer the Kingdom of God, evenYawehesua prayed that only if this cup will pass over him.

They came with every tactics they know to deceive me
into signing off Biafra, they promised me freedom, heaven
and earth, but I told devil to get behind me for the
Kingdom of God worth nothing man can offer.

I am more intelligent than them and I will defeat them to
a point nothing will be left to fight for, Biafra will be and
it has come to stay.

I appeared in the court on 19th Feb 2016, in the face of
this persecution to coerce me into giving up Biafra, I wore a
clean white cloth and tagged Biafran flag under the pocket of my white lace.

I tagged the flag there because that is where life
is and this is to tell you that Biafra is why i breathe.

I will never ever disappoint you and will die for Biafra to
come.

The Biafran flag badge tagged on my white lace is to
remind the world that I am resolute and shall never in this
life accept their gold to sale Biafra.

The world has no option except giving me Biafra and
everything in Nigeria shall be at risk if anything
happens to me. Biafrans love me and together we have chosen death or give us Biafra, should anything happen to me then my command remains.

Meanwhile, I have followed you great Biafrans and I
must confess that I am satisfied, you have made me proud
and my message to you all is to stay strong, remain resolute and focused.

We must not give up, we should continue
pushing strong, we should continue our
peaceful protest because it is frustrating Nigerian
government and we must keep spreading the message
of Biafra and at the end we shall win.
