Biafra: “We Told Buhari That Nnamdi Kanu is From England”

VON DG, Mr Osita Okechukwu has revealed how they tried to convince President Buhari to release Nnamdi Kanu from prison.Osita said they told the president that the IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu is from England and that his stand in Nigeria is not yet known to them. While speaking with newsmen after attending a popular radio programme, Freedom Square Enugu state, revealed that he has been pleading with President Buhari to release Nnamdi Kanu and other pro-Biafrans held in detention.


 According to him; “Mr President is just back. We will continue to plead on his (Kanu) behalf because we told Mr President that, this is a young man from England. That, actually we don’t know his stand in Nigeria. Give him pardon. “Mr President asked me, Osita, have you talked with him (Nnamdi Kanu)?” Continuing, he said;

 “I will find time to talk with him. But anybody that has access to talk with him should tell him that Nigeria is not a zoo where you want to bring Igbo out”. Kanu has been arraigned on different court charges and has been granted bail by the Abuja high court under rulings of Justice Adeniyi Ademola, but was later arrested and detained by the order of President Muhammadu Buhari.

 Following his detention since October 2015, there has been an uneasy calm in the southeast geopolitical zone of the country as main region agitating for a Biafra Nation. Various efforts have been made to ensure Kanu’s release, but it seems President Buhari is not ready to let him go.
