14-DAY COUNTDOWN OF TERROR! IPOB Drops Nuclear Ultimatum On FG Over Nnamdi Kanu And Threatens Total 2027 Election Boycott!.
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has given the Federal Government a 14-day deadline to schedule and hear the appeal of its detained leader, Nnamdi Kanu, warning that a failure to do so will result in a boycott of the 2027 general elections. In a Tuesday statement issued by spokesman Emma Powerful, the group highlighted that Kanu’s family is deeply concerned about the stalling of his appeal against his conviction and life sentence. Powerful criticized the government for moving hastily to secure a conviction on November 20, 2025, yet allegedly dragging its feet and avoiding the courtroom now that the case is before the Court of Appeal.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Furthermore, IPOB condemned the Supreme Court’s ruling that overturned Kanu’s previous discharge and acquittal by the Court of Appeal, arguing that the apex court overstepped its constitutional boundaries. Pointing out that the government has failed to file a respondent’s brief or push for a speedy defense of the conviction, the group challenged authorities to clarify the written law used for Kanu’s conviction and the legal basis for his nearly six-year detention. Concluding that a government unwilling to face the appellate court does not deserve citizens’ votes, IPOB warned that a collective withdrawal of participation from a distrusted electoral framework may be inevitable.

In addition to internal reforms, Olukoyede highlighted substantial financial recoveries driven by the agency’s enforcement activities. Between October 1, 2023, and June 30, 2026, the EFCC amassed total recoveries of ₦1.23 trillion, $684.48 million, £373,905.78, and €9.34 million. Direct recoveries for the Federal Government accounted for ₦397.26 billion (33 per cent), while the remaining ₦836.34 billion (67 per cent) was recovered indirectly for MDAs, state revenue arms, companies, and individuals. Specifically, tax recoveries reached ₦288.1 billion—divided into ₦173.2 billion for federal taxes and ₦114.9 billion for state internal revenue services—alongside ₦257.2 billion secured for various ministries, departments, and agencies. Of these recovered assets, ₦661.32 billion and $492.37 million have been successfully distributed to designated beneficiaries, including individuals, corporate entities, MDAs, and tax services.
