Nnamdi Kanu's Bail Perfection; Ohanaeze Ndigbo Warns On The Consequence Of The Plot To Rope & Humiliate Ekweremadu!

You may not know that it was Deputy Senate president Ike Ekweremadu in the picture above, who did all it could take to perfect the bail conditions that saw the leader of the Indigiiniouse People of Biafra got released from prison a little over a week ago, read here. And now it looks like the powers-that-be, whose thinking was that Mazi Kanu will never be able to meet those bail condition and hence will remain perpetually in prison, are now plotting to frame up and implicate Ike Ekweremadu for his role in perfecting those bail conditions that got Kanu out of prison.

Following that revelation a few days ago, the Igbo apex organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo in Enugu state has warned that Ndigbo will not seat aloof to watch the deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, humiliated for an unsubstantiated reason, vanguardngr.com reports.

The apex Igbo body said it’s warning is coming on the heels of the alarm raised by Ekweremadu that the federal government through the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is planning to rope him in a phantom allegation. Chairman of Enugu state chapter of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Alex Ogbonnia said in a statement, said that even though the EFCC has denied such plot, the group have reasons to believe that such plot is feasible going by the sequence of events that has taken place since June 2015.

Ogbonnia said, “the denial by the EFCC notwithstanding, we wish to warn, in the strongest terms possible, that the Enugu State Chapter of Ohanaeze Ndigbo will not sit idly by and watch our son being maligned; oppressed or ridiculed by the Presidency or the EFCC. ‘We are not unmindful of the fact that this plot gained currency with Senator Ekweremadu’s role in perfecting the bail conditions of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPoB, who was granted bail recently with stringent conditions.

“For the avoidance of doubt, Senator Ekweremadu did what he was supposed to do in the circumstance as a firm believer in the rule of law and justice.’” Ogbonnia alleged that the Presidency has made several moves to pull Senator Ekweremadu down and remove him from office especially after his emergence as the Deputy Senate President in the 8thSenate. “Soon after his election as the Deputy Senate President, the Presidency accused him of forgery and eventually arraigned him before a judge in Abuja on trumped up charges of forgery. “The Deputy Senate President was eventually discharged and acquitted of all the charges. Soon after this, hired assassins breached the convoy of the Senator with intent to assassinate him. “Though this matter was officially reported to the security agencies as well as the Presidency, the matter was swept under the carpet. Till date neither has any arrest been made in connection with the assassination attempt nor any official statement been issued by the government.

“It is in view of the foregoing events that we take seriously the recent revelation by an impeccable source on this grand plot by the presidency and the EFCC to plant exhibits in the residence of the revered Senator with the intent of framing him up and bringing him to national and international disrepute.
