From Left- Justice Binta Nyako, the presiding judge on Nnamdi Kanu's case |

Justice Binta Nyako has shown the world through her thoughts, words and actions in court that she has no integrity, she stands for money and to redeem her husband's crime with the Court case of the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, other than doing the sacred work of the judiciary. Her actions gave way to her thoughts as she was rather undaunted with the outrage her ruling sparked on the 13 of December in court.
On that fateful day, I did not see a woman who came to judge a case, but rather one who was so desperate to save her corrupt husband from going to jail courtesy, the corruption probe he is currently facing in the hands of the EFCC.
Judges like her have sold their conscience and pride to a dictator for material gains and any repercussion that will arise from their action is of no concern to them
It is a well-known fact that Nnamdi Kanu have been incarcerated, albeit illegally, by the forces of the so-called democratic dispensation of the Islamic Republic of Nigeria led by an Islamic fundamentalist agent in the person of Muhammadu Buhari. It is also a well-known fact that up till now, except fabricated lies and flimsy trumped up charges, no concrete evidence against Nnamdi Kanu has been made by the Nigerian government throughout their persecutions.
This is a clear case of persecution because Nigeria have no established ground for unlawfully holding Nnamdi Kanu. Biafrans have been consistent in calling for the unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu just like justice A.F Ademola ordered, we have chosen to adopt a peaceful means to achieve this. We say "chosen" because there are other sets of choices before us.
It behoves on the responsible members of the international community to wade in and ensure that the Nigerian government releases Mazi Nnamdi Kanu without any further delay because our patience has been stretched to the limit, and may snap at some point very soon.
Buhari cannot appoint a woman from his home town in Katsina to be precised, one whose corrupt husband is currently facing trial in Nigerian courts to judge Kanu and jail him unlawfully to please and appeal to President Buhari for her husband's crimes to be pardoned.

There will not be any secret trial of Nnamdi Kanu in court since Buhari accused him in public, we expect him to equally try him in public. Our words are axiomatic and is rightfully so.
If we are in a true democratic entity as Nigeria claims to be, then they must prove it. Binta Nyako must not be "Amen" to every ruling, threatening lawyers for objecting her rules is dissatisfying to the rule of law.
Binta Nyako must follow the rule of law and if she wants to jail let it start from her husband whose profile depicts that of a high profile criminal in Nigeria.
