Actualization Of Biafra Is Non Negotiable – Nnamdi Kanu

Published

Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, has said that the struggle to make Biafra a reality will not be defeated.

Biafra is non-negotiable, according to Kanu, who stated this in a tweet sent on Tuesday by his attorney, Aloy Ejimakor.

“Personal Message from Mazi Nnamdi Kanu: “I deeply appreciate the steadfast solidarity of the people of Biafra & the whole IPOB noble family against my continued unjust detention,” Ejimakor tweeted.

“I assure you all that our pursuit of self determination to its logical conclusion is non-negotiable.”

Kanu was abducted from Kenya in 2021. Despite an order by the Appeal Court calling for his release, he has remained in custody of the Department of State Services in Abuja, till date.

The Federal Government had filed an appeal before the Supreme court, depicting its stand on the Biafran leader.

He was charged with treasonable felony, managing an unlawful society, publication of defamatory matter, among others.

Recall, about three days ago, civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, appealed to President Tinubu to release Kanu, as a way to implement national reconciliation.

Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, has also urged the president to grant the IPOB leader’s release and hand him over to any of the South-East governors.

In his appeal, Mbah said, “We believe that his release will expedite the healing process Nigeria needs at this time.

“It will also be a pointer to his administration’s extension of brotherly hands of fellowship to Ndigbo.”

The governor had also announced that there’ll be no more “sit-at-home” in the state. The order was earlier given by the separatist group.
