Greece Begin Movement Of Refugees Stranded At Port

At least 51,000 refugees and migrants who reached Greece from Turkey and are hoping to travel north to countries like Germany and Austria are stranded in Greece after Balkan countries closed their borders.
Nearly 6,000 people, most from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, were stuck at the port of Piraeus on Thursday, authorities said. Greece’s largest port lies about 12 km from central Athens.
By mid-morning, at least four buses departed for the port town of Kyllini in western Greece, some 280 km from Athens, where they will be housed in a former tourist complex. Families began gathering at the dock as more buses were expected to be deployed.
Other buses left for the cities of Ioannina and Larissa in northwestern and central Greece.


Nnamdi Kanu is a paper tiger


As a dual national you can’t get diplomatic help from the British government when you are in the other country where you hold citizenship. For example, if you hold both British and Chinese citizenship you can’t get diplomatic help from the UK when you’re in China
 We warned those following this fake freedom fighter that if push comes to shove he would run away to Britain. Nnamdi Kanu is a paper tiger who is loud mouth and attention seeker and a coward,who sees himself as Ojuku but we all know that he is a fake.The dude is not even claiming his beloved Biafran citizenship. 
You dont incite war and violence and not expect yourself to get burnt.He is asking Britain to save his neck; what a selfish move? There are those charged together with him for the same offence who do not hold dual citizenship, the guy is begging Britain to save his skin. A true leader will be ready to stay with his followers till the very end; unfortunately, the British government cannot come to his aid because he is a dual citizen and he is within the jurisdiction of his primary country.

Nnamdi Kanu Writes the UK Government:Says he’s a British Citizen

In a letter dated March 24, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu has called on the UK government to ask President Muhammadu Buhari to release him.
Kanu stressed that he’s a British Citizen and said that he was wrongly arrested. He also claimed to be a victim of gross human rights violation.
The letter which was addressed to the UK High Commissioner in Abuja by his lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor reads in part:
It is repeating the obvious to state that our client is a full British citizen, by virtue of which position he is entitled to all Rights, Privileges and Protection, guaranteed under the British Laws and conventions.
We are therefore constrained in the circumstance, to formally notify the British Government via this medium, of our well informed reservations, and apprehension, that our client is undergoing persecution in the charge above referred, and deliberate design by the persecutors to frustrate every effort of the Defense team aimed at giving our client a fair trial.
It is the position of our Law, that dual citizenship is a constitutional right of the citizens of Nigeria, clearly provided for under section 28 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended in 2011. Dual citizenship is not a crime under our Law.
He also insisted that Justice John Tsoho denied him bail on January 29th 2016 “in line with the pronouncement of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in his media chat televised live on December 29, 2015.” that he cannot be granted bail because he came into the country without a valid passport.
