Former Nigerian Ambassador to Spain, Mrs Bianca Ojukwu, has pleaded with President Muhammadu Buhari to release Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Mrs Ojukwu made the plea while speaking at the 10th memorial anniversary of late Igbo leader, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, organised in Owerri on Friday.

She urged the President to consider the plea made by some Igbo leaders during their recent visit to the State House, Abuja, asking for Kanu’s release.

She said that Kanu’s release would demonstrate Buhari’s magnanimity, adding that the clamour for secession is a direct consequence of perceived inequality in distribution of resources and political appointments in the country.

She, however, urged governors of the South East geo-political zone to Ojukwu just as the convener of the event, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, leader of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra.

“Kanu’s release will further buttress President Buhari’s commitment to healing the wounds inflicted by the sense of marginalisation felt by the Igbo nation,” she said.

Speaking, Mr Ahamefula Ojukwu, chairman of the occasion and son of the late Igbo leader, thanked Uwazuruike for conducting the affairs of the entire Igbo nation in unity.

He urged Igbo people, especially those privileged to occupy positions of authority, to preserve the legacies of his late father whom he described as “an embodiment of selfless service and sacrifice to the Igbo cause”.

Earlier in an address, Dr Nkem Okeke, Deputy Governor of Anambra, decried the use of violence in the quest for self determination.

He implored Igbo people to be united and fight diplomatically so as to achieve a set objective.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the event was attended by various Igbo groups from the South-East and South-South geo-political zones of the country.

A highlight of the event was the cultural dances and traditional masquerade performances by various troupes.

Whether they like it or not- MNK will come out and continue the fight for the liberation of his people- The road to freedom is rough and tough- MNK knew this since day 1. The north will turn to graveyards if southern Nigeria breaks away from it- No sane human will see what this evil govt is doing and still think of One Nigeria.

Y'all quoting me are nothing but pigs.. Freedom fighting ain't for the poor

E don reach to dey beg Jubrin Al Sudan?
The same Buhari that Kanu said is dead & his Illiterate Peoples of Biafra believed is actually dead?

Confused lots

Did I hear her say " please", much as I was left stunned at Ohaneze "begging" Buhari for Kanu's release.
I thought chestbeaters don't beg.
As the saying goes; when you dealt a recalcitrant child a great measure in the language he understands, he automatically becomes humbled and obedient.




Al-turbani speaks!

Noted

Typical elitist behavior, all the people that were killed their lives were never worthy to be begged for! No pleas to their unknown gunmen to stop the killing! Their only interest is to free the man behind it all. Even Akunliyis Husband murdered for nothing!

Ur head is there.

How can FG release kanu when ipob are still killing and destroying ?

They should be telling ipobs and their militant wing called Esn to stop killing and surrender their arms to the Security forces.

Then, they will undergo rehabilation by the security forces just like Boko Haram.

After then . Ipob will now accept and the responsibility for the killings and arson in the South East then beg FG for Pardon.

If FG see that Ipob has repented and feel remorse for Their deeds including nnamdi kanu that will renounce ipob and Esn.

Then FG might consider pardon that will be after kanu might have spent Like 2years in prison.

Anything apart from this , then Ipob and ignorant leaders pleading for Buhari are wasting their time.

Kanu should released immediately for him to go back to his wife and children

The man committed no offence known to law

You the beg person wey get ear problem.

Buhari nong9 hear

Igbos are busy insulting my tribe on my thread forgetting their mess here.

Igbo elders have reduced themselves to nothing, nobody takes them seriously or respects them anymore.
It's actually a very shameful thing for the people who should be the most respected in a tribe to come out and be pleading that someone like Kanu should be released.

Nnamdi Kanu will not be released and there's nothing they can do about it. He will either get a death sentence or life imprisonment.

Let love lead

You people should go and queue behind Tinubu, is Tinubu that will release kanu

Honestly these people are the greatest mistake of this country and will always be for any country they belong to. Their culture and beliefs is too individualistic for anything called “society”. They have no respect for any law. They don’t care about anyone else even their Neighbour.

How can any sane human call for the release of that animal privately let alone publicly like they’re doing.

If Abubakr Shekau happened to have been from their tribe, they will shamelessly call for his release.

Just imagine, someone who’s foot soldiers acting upon his instructions killed and maimed other Igbos, both commoners and prominent Igbos is who this shameless people are begging for his release.

How?

So the likes of Dr Chike Akunyili and dozens of dead Igbos killed Kanus foot soldiers are just collateral damages of a mad dog? And they want the govt to release the Mad dog again.

I’m just sorry for this country. Only God can save us.

PMB should ensure he is sentenced to life imprisonment. Let them start killing themselves like they’ve been doing since his arrest. I’m sure they dare not go beyond their region.

Never! He will definitely go in the way of Evans..

since the captivity of mnk, have it tamed the biafran struggle

if south splits from north it be a brething grounds for islamic state and al queada as a whole.

Beggi Beggi nno good oh


What about people killed? What about businesses destroyed? What his people that are refugees in the zoo?

Sooner or later, he will be released ... The fight for freedom isn't for the faint hearted, and NK knew this before he started his agitation.

This isn't the first time he has been arrested, and it might not be the last.

You go beg tire

Una shakara don end?
