Nigeria’s first republic minister of aviation, Mbazulike Amaechi has openly disclosed that the leader of the indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu will soon be released.
Amaechi made the declaration while meeting some reporters who visited him in Onitsha, Anambra state as he expressed his disappointment over why Buhari is yet to release Nnamdi Kanu despite the affirmations he gave to him (Amaechi) and other top Igbo politicians when they visited the president in Aso Rock.
In his words, he said;
“Although, I am disappointed that up until now, Buhari has not released him despite assurances he gave to us on the day we visited him in Aso Rock, all hope is not lost as we are sure that Kanu will soon be released based on the ongoing negotiations.
“I will call on those agitating for one thing or the other to remain calm and be hopeful. Although, these agitations have demonstrated that only the release of Kanu will stop the agitations and we are working towards his release.”
