Apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, has urged President Bola Tinubu to immediately release the incarcerated leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, as that would put a stop to the “destructive activities” of Finland-based, Simon Ekpa, in the South-East.
Spokesperson of the group, Alex Ogbonnia, who made the call in a statement on Sunday, said releasing Kanu from the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS), would shut down Ekpa and ease up the insecurity and agitations in the region.
“We call on President Bola Tinubu to immediately release Nnamdi Kanu. If he is released, at least the likes of Simon Ekpa would not have anything else to say again. No person can use Nnamdi Kanu as an excuse to cause mayhem in the country,” the statement said.
