Kanu committed no crime – Niger Delta communities beg Tinubu to release him

The association’s claim is contained in a letter to Tinubu dated June 13 and jointly signed by its President, Isa Mohammed Obiri and Secretary, Wisdom Oteyi.

The separatist leader is currently in detention following his ongoing trial by the Federal Government on allegations of treason and perpetuating falsehood against the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Kanu, who used the controversial Radio Biafra outlet and social media platforms to propagate several anti-Nigeria rhetorics, was forcibly repatriated from Kenya in 2021, having fled the country after he was granted bail.
