Tinubu does not carry the same baggage as Buhari appears to carry regarding the Igbo people – Lotanna Ojukwu

Lotanna Ojukwu, the younger brother of the late Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, former Biafra Head of State, expressed his belief that President Bola Tinubu and former President Muhammadu Buhari are distinct individuals.

According to Ojukwu, Tinubu does not seem to harbor the same negative sentiment towards the Igbo people as Buhari apparently does. Ojukwu made these remarks during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show program on Friday while addressing questions concerning the security challenges faced by the Southeast region of the country.

“If the governors are sincere, they are enough to be able to talk to the president, they will achieve the result that we are seeking on the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, he said

“The most important fact is that the court has said Nnamdi Kanu should be released.

“We know that Buhari did not have much favour towards the Igbos. He called us a dot in the spot. So really I never believed Buhari was going to release Nnamdi Kanu, and I voiced it out anytime people ask for my opinion.

“But I believe Tinubu is a different person. He doesn’t carry the same baggage as Buhari appears to carry regarding the Igbo people.

“And I would like to see the Yoruba and the Igbos have a better standing love for each other’s ethnic group”.
