" Ten Biafran plaintiffs are seeking millions of dollars as damages to compensate for their grievous losses and suffering following the alleged gruesome killings of pro Biafra agitators in Nkpor and Onitsha , Anambra State and Aba, Abia State in 2016 during the peaceful demonstration for the release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu. The identities of the plaintiffs are hidden for security reasons while the case name is John Doe , etal vs Tukur Yusuf Buratai etal civil action No. 1:17-cv-01033. The case has been assigned to United States District Judge Ellen S. Huvelle, appointed by President William Jefferson Clinton. Speaking to Daily Sun in an exclusive chat, Attorney Bruce Fein said they were in Nigeria as a follow up to the suit already in court because of Biafra agitators who were murdered as a result of high level military and security agencies infringement of their rights to freedom of assembly and expression while the state governors could not also protect the demonstrators. He explained that under the United States law, those human rights crimes are prosecutable in the United States courts even though the plaintiffs and defendants are citizens of the country, Nigeria. Fein said after filing the case in the US court, they were able to convince the judge that revealing the identities of the complainants /plaintiffs in the suit could result in retaliations and danger against their families, hence the reason the court settled for the name John Doe etal so that it can proceed anonymously." Charles Ogbu had this to say - "This news is particularly very personal to me. After killing the unarmed IPOB members just for going to church to remember their fallen heroes between May 29-30, 2016, the uniformed murderers masquerading as the Nigerian army BATHED SURVIVORS WITH RAW ACID according to a detailed report released by Amnesty International. The soldier who led that operation is one Major T.O Ibrahim. But after killing Igbo sons and daughters, the moral criminals running the Nigerian state gifted this murderous soldier with a promotion for killing unarmed citizens. He is now Col. T. O Ibrahim. Let that sink! Any govt that uses soldiers to kill the same citizens it exists mainly to protect while protecting the same boko haram and Fulani terrorists it exists mainly to kill, is undeserving of any iota of respect from any right thinking person. Have I crossed the red line Taaaaaa!!!! Bunch of jokers trying to silence people after butchering innocent citizens. This case is already ongoing in U.S court and out of the 16 defendants, 13 including state governors of those two states have been properly served and they already hired a defence lawyer. I can't wait to see murderers exposed for who they are. Special thanks to Emeka Umeagbalasi, board chairman, International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule Of Law and others who made this possible. Biafra" |
