The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has condemned the
release of the five suspects who allegedly murdered an Igbo woman, Mrs Bridget
Aghaneme, in Kano over alleged blasphemy by the court, describing the judgement
as concocted.
It however, said that the judgement had vindicated its
position that there were different laws for different people in the country.
IPOB’s Media and Publicity Director, Comrade Emma Powerful, who made this known
in a statement in Enugu also, wondered how a magistrate court which had no
jurisdiction to try murder cases could release murder suspects without the
connivance of the Kano State government. The suspects included Dauda Ahmed,
Abdulmumuni Mustapha, Zubairu Abubakar, Abdullahi Abubakar and Musa Abdullahi.
The statement read, “We, in the IPOB worldwide condemn the recent judgment
delivered by the magistrate court in Kano State in favour of the killers of Mrs
Bridget Aghaneme who was murdered in broad daylight in Kano state by the
Islamic fundamentalist. “We condemn the judgment in its totality. The
magistrate and the government of Kano State were instrumental to the killing of
an innocent woman who committed no crime against Islam. “However, this is what
IPOB preached that the Christians in Nigeria and the people of Biafra must
leave the north and come back home and make their lives better by staying in a
place where their lives will be protected. This concocted judgment by the
killers in the northern part of Nigeria indicate that Igbo are not wanted in
the northern territories. “Again we are aware that the killers of the
Christians and Biafrans have infiltrated the judiciary especially in the
northern part of Nigeria. “Otherwise, how can a well trained lawyer and a
magistrate who attended so many seminars and course release a murderer who
snuffed life out of a fellow human being to go scot free? “This is a dangerous
signal that nobody is safe again in the country…We are also aware that the
arrest they made before taking them to court was a jamboree just in a bid to
deceive the general public and cover their evil agenda against the people of
Biafra but then we are not deterred in fighting for the restoration of God’s
nation, Biafra.”
