Bishop Francis Wale Oke, the National President of the
Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, has appealed to the Federal Government of
Nigeria under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari not to silence
the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi kanu, and Yoruba
activist, Sunday Adeyemo, aka Sunday Igboho.
Oke urged the Buhari government to practise good governance
and equity as a means of resolving the agitations across Nigeria, adding that
agitations will never stop and others will rise if Kanu and Igboho are
silenced.
The Bishop spoke while addressing a press conference on the
state of the nation at the Redemption Camp of the Redeemed Christian Church of
God in Mowe, Ogun State, on Thursday.
Oke said, “We appeal to the government to make sure that
there is equity in the participation and representation in governance by the
people.
“Until that is done, agitation will never stop. If we
silence Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho, others will rise.”
Kanu is presently in detention in
the custody of the Department of State Services, DSS, while his trial continues
after he was re-arrested by security operatives two weeks ago.
Igboho’s house was invaded by the DSS a few days ago. He is
currently on the run as nobody has seen him since the attack on his residence.
Both Kanu and Igboho are separatist agitators.
