Joe Igbokwe, the Special Adviser on Drainage and Water Resources to Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Governor of Lagos State, has criticised lawyers to Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that after Kanu’s trial on Wednesday where the Federal High Court, Abuja, withdrew the newly-amended charges against the separatist leader, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, IPOB’s lead counsel, posted pictures of the detained activist’s legal team in ecstatic mood on his verified Facebook page.
This did not go down well with Anambra-born Igbokwe, who felt Kanu’s lawyers were being insensitive to the horror ongoing in the southeast, which has been linked to IPOB.
“South east is in a mess, people are being killed, businesses in ruins and we are here celebrating mediocrity and smiling away our collective shame. We will receive sense by force,” Igbokwe, a former spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State, wrote on his known Facebook page.
Those are not lawyers, actually. They will soon get what is coming for them and let us see if they will be sober and wail instead.
Very insensitive indeed. I blame the Igbo politicians especially the PDP who derives pleasure in applauding the terrorist elements.
None of them is seriously speaking against the activities of IPOB in the East rather they are after his release from prison. and that is what gave these lawyers the impetus to celebrates EVIL and COWARD.
Nnamdi Kanu is not a criminal neither is he a terrorist, this is a man fighting for freedom of his people and injustice being mated to them on daily basis not only by the present government but even the past ones.Joe Igbokwe is known in Ibo land as that child who gave away his mother for marathon six for bones of fish and meat.
Hahahahaha, this man that cleans gutter for Lagosians, is he a human being or what because he always think the other way round. Maybe, the gutter is really affecting him.
