Aloy Ejimakor, the lead Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of
the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Thursday, charged President Bola
Tinubu to free the Biafra agitator.
Ejimakor said Tinubu had risen to become Nigeria’s president
despite his past stance against one-Nigeria.
In an interview with Thisday on April 13th, 1997, Tinubu had
said ‘I don’t believe in one Nigeria’.
However, posting on X, Ejimakor wrote: “Free Nnamdi Kanu
because you were also once against one Nigeria
“In 1997, Tinubu proclaimed that he doesn’t believe in
#OneNigeria but he went scot-free & became President. So, where lies the
moral authority to detain MAZI NNAMDI KANU that said nothing different?”
The IPOB leader has remained locked up by the Department of
State Services, DSS, on the orders of the Nigerian government.
Kanu has been locked up since he was rearrested in Kenya and
repatriated to Nigeria to face his trial over his agitation for the
actualization of Biafra.
Despite court rulings granting him bail, the Nigerian
government has refused to let him off the hook.
