The Global Prolife Alliance (GPA) has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to revoke the National Honour recently conferred on Mr. Bill Gates, citing concerns over alleged crimes against humanity.
The GPA claims that Mr. Gates, through his foundations, has promoted activities that undermine Nigeria’s food sovereignty and public health.
Dr. Philip Njemanze, Chairman of GPA, in a statement described the alleged actions as bioterrorism.
“Mr. Bill Gates has used vaccines and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) as tools to destabilize the health and food systems of Nigeria,” part of the statement read.
The group added that these actions pose severe long-term threats to the nation’s security.
The GPA has further urged the Federal Government of Nigeria to file formal charges against Gates at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.
According to the organization, the allegations qualify as crimes against humanity under Article 7 of the Rome Statute of the ICC.
“The Rome Statute clearly defines crimes against humanity to include persecution against identifiable groups, inhumane acts causing great suffering, and severe deprivation of fundamental rights. These elements are evident in the activities of Mr. Gates’ foundations.” the statement stated.
The GPA also referenced international agreements such as the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological Weapons (1972) and the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESCR).
The organization argued that these frameworks obligate states to prevent the misuse of biotechnology and public health measures as instruments of control.
To advance its claims, the GPA said it has initiated an indictment process under Article 15(1) of the Rome Statute. This provision it says, enables individuals or organizations to submit credible information to the ICC Prosecutor for investigation.
“We have submitted our findings, and we believe there is enough evidence to warrant an investigation,” GPA revealed.
The organization urged decisive action from the Nigerian government and civil society to protect the biosecurity and human dignity of the Nigerian people.
“This is not just a national issue but a global one. Nigeria must lead in defending its sovereignty and public health,” Njemanze asserted.
The GPA further criticized what it described as a lack of accountability in awarding national honours.
“It is an insult to the Nigerian people to bestow such an honour on an individual whose actions threaten their well-being,” Dr. Njemanze stated.
In a bid to raise awareness, the GPA released a video detailing its case against Gates. Both an abridged and a full-length version are available online.
“We want Nigerians and the global community to understand the gravity of these allegations and why urgent action is necessary,” the GPA Chairman emphasized.
Dr. Njemanze called for unity among Nigerians in addressing these concerns.
“Our leaders and citizens alike must recognize the existential threat posed by such activities. We need to take a stand now,” he concluded.
