Lawyer faults publication linking Nnamdi Kanu with propaganda theory in South-East
A human rights lawyer, Barrister Christopher Chidera has condemned what he described as a “malicious publication” against Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
The lawyer described the article titled ‘How Nnamdi Kanu Sought to Please South-Easterners with Hilarious Propaganda’ as malicious falsehood, noting that it showcased ignorance, deceit and a thinly veiled contempt for truth.
Chidera said the article is targeted at sowing division between Nnamdi Kanu and his people to demystify him, and to paint him as a purveyor of baseless conspiracy theories.
Accordibg to him, the article, which he further described as a hatchet job, is part of a British-sponsored plot to undermine Kanu’s growing influence on collective psyche of the Igbo and his ability to reawaken the people’s mindset to the reality of the Nigerian deception.
He added that Kanu was in prison — not for lies, but for speaking truth to power.
“What the writer and their British handlers fail to understand is that Nnamdi Kanu doesn’t need propaganda to win the loyalty of his people. He has the truth. He has consistency. He has suffered more in pursuit of freedom than all these cowardly pen-wielders combined. He was abducted, tortured, renditioned, and yet he remains unbroken — while his critics remain unknown, irrelevant, and afraid.
“Let us address the real question: If Kanu is so full of ‘hilarious propaganda’, why has the Nigerian government never charged him with the very thing they claim is false — the allegation that President Buhari died in 2017 and was replaced by an impostor? Why did Abubakar Malami, SAN, the then AGF, charge him for calling Buhari names, yet omit the most sensational claim that ‘Buhari’ was a Sudanese double?
“To the Efulefu Igbos who cheer this garbage: understand that you are dancing on the graves of your ancestors. Your silence and collaboration are part of why Igbo land remains militarized, our youths massacred, and our freedom denied. Kanu is not the enemy. Your cowardice is.”
The lawyer also questioned the identity of the author of the article, who goes by the name, Pephel.
He added, “Let us begin with the name “Pephel”. For those familiar with Igbo cultural logic and naming conventions, this pseudonym is a dead giveaway — this isn’t an Igbo voice. This is not someone with blood ties to the land of the rising sun. It is either an outsider desperately trying to sound native, or worse, an Efulefu — one of those tragic Igbos who abandon their heritage for crumbs at the table of their slave masters. Either way, the piece fails from the first sentence. A fraud with a fake name cannot speak on Igbo realities.
“Africa’s biggest curse isn’t colonialism — it’s our refusal to think. We worship power, not truth. We obey, we conform, we fear, but we don’t question. We reject facts if they’re uncomfortable and attack messengers who speak hard truths.
“Until Black Africans learn to reason critically, challenge authority, and demand evidence over emotion, we will remain trapped — not by foreign hands, but by our own mental laziness. This sickness of the mind is why we are lied to, looted, and led in circles.”
