Buhari has a duty to release Nnamdi Kanu, no need to beg him – Nzuko Ndigbo

A pan-Igbo socio-cultural organization, Nzuko Ndigbo, has condemned President Muhammadu Buhari’s comment during the recent visit by Igbo leaders to the State House Abuja over the continued incarceration of leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, at the facility of the Department of State Service (DSS).

The President had remarked that he would consider the release of the embattled IPOB leader.

Reacting, Nzuko Ndigbo, in a statement by its Director of Media and Publicity, Mr. Edomobi Promise noted that the President is not doing any favour to Ndigbo by the promise but doing what he is supposed to do.

The group maintained that there was no reason at all for arresting the IPOB leader in a gestapo manner and demanded for the trial of all those that abducted him from Kenya.

The Nzuko Ndigbo advised against people visiting President Buhari on behalf of Ndigbo without discussing with anybody.

The socio-cultural organization also noted that it is killer herdsmen, bandits and Boko Haram that should be targeted by Buhari and not Nnamdi Kanu or the Yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho.

According to the Nzuko Ndigbo, “Let Buhari release and apologize to Nnamdi Kanu for unlawful kidnapping by the federal government”.
