shocking Buhari's plans with Nnamdi Kanu

Chief Tobby Anumaka, Patron Okpoko appeals to Buhari to set Kanu free unconditionally



"In the interview granted to the DailySun he stated that the change mantra of the incumbent government is on course, while asking President Muhamamdu Buhari to release Kanu unconditionally.

Anumaka added that Igbo leaders should be blamed for the plight of the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mr. Nnamdi Kanu. He said: “We have five governors and traditional rulers, how come nobody is saying anything.

The republican nature of Ndigbo is affecting us negatively. Our leaders must be honest and sincere. They cannot claim to be leading us while they are leading us into the ocean. Most of them are after their personal interest and not the collective gain of Ndigbo unlike the Yoruba and those from the Niger Delta who always mount pressure on government to release their activists whenever they fallout with government over agitation for their collective interest”.

“Look at what happened during the last presidential election; if not for Okorocha, Igbo would have lost out completely. No Igbo leader has come out openly and called for the release of Nnamdi Kanu. Even though I’m not in support of breakup of Nigeria, but Kanu has the right to self-determination. Where are the South-East governors, those at the National Assembly and traditional rulers? Apart from Prof. Ben Nwabueze who is an old man, where are other vibrant Igbo leaders? Why the conspiracy of silence of Igbo leaders over the release of Kanu? Don’t blame Buhari for Kanu’s ordeal but Igbo leaders. The people of South-East are waiting for their leaders to inspire them towards agitation of Kanu’s release”.

“Therefore, I’m using this medium to call on the Federal government to release Mr. Kanu unconditionally”, the politician added. President Buhari has previously defined Kanu, who holds dual U.K. and Nigerian nationality, as a flight risk and suggested that he should not be granted bail. The president has also said that Nigeria “will not tolerate” pro-Biafra activists interfering with Nigerian security or the economy.

Meanwhile, the Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, has

dismissed the current agitation for Biafra, saying that even the Igbo god of thunder, ‘Amadioha’ cannot resurrect the project which is dead and long buried.

While hosting a delegation from the Igbo Elders Forum at the state house in Owerri, Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, has rejected the bid for the recreation of the defunct republic of Biafra saying that ‘even the Igbo god of thunder, ‘Amadioha’ cannot resurrect the project which is dead and long buried.’

The  governor who dismissed the current agitation for Biafra, told the forum that ‘Biafra has long been dead and not even Amadioha can resurrect it,’ adding that ‘they should be grateful that President Buhari apprehended a criminal and terrorist like Nnamdi Kanu who deserves to be punished for his crimes.’

Governor Okorocha said: “On behalf of all the state governors in the eastern region, we have unanimously agreed with President Buhari not to release that terrorist and troublesome boy who does not know his roots. Nigeria will remain as one and the Igbos will be part of it.”

He warned that very soon many youths will lose their lives unnecessarily in the name of the struggle, reminding the elders that even the former leader of the Biafran republic, Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu made it clear that another war of secession was not needed before he died in 2011"
