BREAKING: “Let my enemies fall…” Nnamdi Kanu’s prayers before extradition to Nigeria [PICS]

Taking a cue from book of Psalms in the bible, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu, prayed for his enemies to stumble and fall.

This was before his re-arrest and extradition from the United Kingdom announced on Tuesday. On a daily basis, Kanu posts words of prayers on social media citing a verse of the Bible.

However, the last of such was on Sunday, when he referenced the Psalms 27, checks by POLITICS NIGERIA showed.

“Day 27 of our Prayers from the Book of Psalms Chapter 27, as divinely mandated.

Extract: Psalm 27:2 “When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell”. Iseeee!!!” he wrote.

Nigeria’s justice minister and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, on Tuesday, said Kanu was arrested and returned back to the country.

At a joint press briefing on Tuesday with the State Security Service (SSS) in Abuja, Malami disclosed that international collaborative efforts with security agencies led to Mr Kanu’s arrest and repatriation to Nigeria.

Mr Kanu and his co-defendant are facing treasonable felony charges at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Mr Kanu fled the country in September 2017 after an invasion of his home by the military in Afara-Ukwu, near Umuahia, Abia State.

The Nigerian government obtained a court order on September 20, 2017, to designate IPOB a terrorist group and to proscribe it.
