It is rather vacuous and ingenious to compare Nnamdi Kanu to Sunday Adeyemo, AKA Igboho, and insist that if Igboho is not also prosecuted for treasonous acts, then prosecuting Kanu is a case of double standards.
The basic difference between Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu is that Igboho never asked his followers to kill soldiers or police officers or any military or paramilitary officer or civilian working for the Nigerian state.
His advocacy and actions were solely focused on self-defence, while his vigilante actions were targeted against killer herders and those in his community who harboured them. He was also known for peacefully agitating for an independent Oodua Republic.
He did not set up a militia force to fight the Nigerian state and attempt to militarily advance his desires to see an independent country for his kith and kin; neither did he incite his followers to destroy public property and other infrastructure representing the Nigerian state, such as courts, police stations, bus terminals, and private businesses of individuals suspected of having pro-Nigeria tendencies.
Finally, he did not travel to foreign countries publicly soliciting funds to buy weapons to use against the Nigerian state.
However, perhaps I am wrong, and you have evidence that he is guilty of any of the treasonable acts listed above. In that case, rather than your usual insults, can you please kindly itemise those proofs here?
Failing to do that and engaging in your pastime of insult will be taken as evidence that you have no such proof.
