  • Additionally, this project is designed to address hardships to Nigerian farmers due in-part to climate change which has damaged Nigerian agriculture and increased post-harvest losses and decreased crop yields.
  • We are looking forward to working with Dantata Foods on a project that has so much potential to transform Nigerian food production.

Nnamdi Kanu is remarkably similar to Nelson Mandela in his charismatic approach to securing freedom and safety for over 42 million Biafrans in Nigeria and the direct benefit of over 20 million Biafrans worldwide.

Key Points: 
  • Nnamdi Kanu is remarkably similar to Nelson Mandela in his charismatic approach to securing freedom and safety for over 42 million Biafrans in Nigeria and the direct benefit of over 20 million Biafrans worldwide.
  • Additionally, the United Nations has entered a scathing judgment declaring the kidnapping and continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu in blatant violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
  • In this regard, Nnamdi Kanu betters Nelson Mandela in that there were never judicial decisions from the courts or the U.N. demanding the release of Mandela.
  • Unfortunately, Nnamdi Kanu languishes in prison as the "Nelson Mandela of the New Millennium" because the Nigerian government ignores and refuses to follow its own laws and binding International Human Rights Treaties.
