Nnamdi Kanu’s case is no longer about justice is about rhe Elites in Nigeria, behind closed doors they have had meetings. The world should take note.
NIgeria is a place of persecution not prosecution
For the avoidance of doubt and to alert the public, it has become clear that a secret decision has long been reached within the Tinubu regime regarding the fate of Nnamdi Kanu. The plan, devised through a high-level political conspiracy, is to either sentence him to death or condemn him to life imprisonment. This outcome, predetermined far in advance, is now being dressed up in the guise of judicial procedure.
Justice Omotosho is expected to conclude Kanu’s trial by declaring that his refusal to open his defence amounts to an admission of guilt—a convenient interpretation designed to seal a verdict already agreed upon behind closed doors. The ruling is anticipated in November, a month that bears a haunting historical echo. It was in November 1995 that the military tribunal of General Sani Abacha sentenced Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other Ogoni activists to death—a sentence carried out with ruthless precision.
Today, three decades later, Nigeria appears to be standing at the same moral crossroads. Only the year has changed—this is 2025, not 1995—but the machinery of repression grinds on. The trial of Nnamdi Kanu has ceased to be about justice; it is now a test of conscience for the Nigerian state and its citizens alike.
