Nnamdi Kanu 110% Correct In Everything He Said About Nigeria – Dele Farotimi

Human rights lawyer and political activist, Dele Farotimi, has said the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, was “110% correct” in his assessment and criticisms of Nigeria.

Farotimi made the assertion in a video posted on X on Wednesday and sighted by LEADERSHIP.

According to him, recent events in the country have validated several of Kanu’s criticisms of the Nigerian state.

He faulted the government for failing to address what he described as systemic problems in the country, arguing that the continued imprisonment of what he called rational voices, while alleged criminals remain free, has further deepened national instability.

Farotimi said, “Nigeria has proven Nnamdi Kanu right at every point. I have no single argument against the facts that have been adduced by Nnamdi Kanu in his agitation against the Nigerian state, not one.

“And if you press a little further, I am today convinced that Nnamdi Kanu was 110 per cent correct in his assessment of the Nigerian state.

“He was correct, but today he sits in a cell somewhere, and numerous murderers are walking around free. That is vindication. The man is correct. Nigeria encourages madness.

“If it does not listen to rational voices, it becomes inevitable that more extreme voices will be spoken in the language that Nigeria understands.”

The activist added that he had previously engaged with separatist agitators across different parts of the country.

“I’ve had multiple occasions to address separatist agitators, both in Igboland, in Yorubaland, and elsewhere,” he said.
