Renowned Yoruba activist, Chief Sunday Igboho, passionately urged the Federal Government to immediately release the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPoB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Igboho’s plea, conveyed through a viral video on Tuesday, coincided with Kanu’s ongoing trial at the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Kanu, who appeared in court on Monday for the first time following a Supreme Court ruling on 15th December 2023, has been in custody since June 2021.
Igboho emphasised Kanu’s innocence and called for an end to political maneuvers, noting that Kanu should be released to reunite with his family.
In the video, Igboho said, “Release Nnamdi Kanu. Stop politics. This guy didn’t do anything. Today is February 27, 2024. Release him, let him go, and stay with his family.
“This guy just fights for his people in the Southeast like me that I’m fighting for my people in Yorubaland.
“Release him, let him go. Stop these political games. Release Kanu, let him go home, please release him”.
