Apex Igbo socio-cultural group identified as Ohanaeze has called out the Buhari to free the leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) after the Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Igboho was set free by the Beninese government.
The call for Nnamdi Kanu’s freedom was made known through a statement released by the President-General of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide (OYC), Mazi Okwu Nnabuike which reads;
“The President Muhammadu Buhari-led government should play the role of a father by freeing Nnamdi Kanu from detention.
“We have said it time without number that the incarceration of Kanu was adding to the insecurity headache plaguing the nation, and the only way out was a political solution.
“The current unrest in the South-East should be a source of concern to everyone and the solution lies largely in the release of Kanu.
“It is, therefore, necessary at this point that the government releases him and enter a negotiation table with the Igbo youths who feel marginalized and sidelined in the scheme of things.”
