Nigerian activist and politician Omoyele Sowore has asserted that the Southeast has, in effect, separated itself from Nigeria.
Naija News reports that Sowore’s comments follow the rise of a new terror group, Lakurawa, in the Northwest, adding to the instability in the region.
He noted that many High Courts in the Southeast are no longer operational, while the Court of Appeals branches in Nnewi, Enugu, and Awka have moved out of the area.
In a post on X, Sowore expressed concern over Nigeria’s deepening challenges, noting that the only case currently highlighted on the Court of Appeal’s website is that of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
He wrote: “The depth of Nigeria’s ongoing deterioration has not been figured out by its people. The Northwest just added a deadly terrorist group to its cocktail.
“The South Eastern part of Nigeria has practically left Nigeria, as we speak, several Federal High Courts have stopped working, @PoliceNG stations, commands and divisions have closed down, and today, the Court of Appeals divisions in Nnewi, Enugu, and Awka have relocated elsewhere.
“If you go to the (outdated) website of the Court of Appeal, the only case they highlighted on the front page is the case against Nnamdi Kanu.”
