The lawmakers, who hail from different political parties and geopolitical zones across the nation, also appealed to President Tinubu to commence a presidential peace initiative to address all issues and challenges bedeviling the southeast region of Nigeria.
He challenged the government to release Kanu, asserting that doing so would lead to an immediate cessation of insecurity in the region.
“It’s, therefore, a call on the concerned citizens to hasten up to avert the impending doom rather than wait for the manifestation.”
Kanu’s address was a sequel to the Eastern Security Network, ESN, warning to herdsmen, thugs, and vigilante outfits operating in the Southeast as it marks its third anniversary.
Kanu is indeed a man of his word. Little wonder he told his followers that they would be the ones to disappoint him along the lines of the struggle for the freedom of Biafra.
The IPOB’s leader was on June, 27th of July 2021 arrested and renditioned to Nigeria from Kenya and has since been in the DSS facility, despite different courts’ rulings declaring him freed and acquitted.
The governor made the appeal in a congratulatory message he sent to Tinubu on his victory in the February 25 presidential election.
