The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has accused President
Muhammadu Buhari of failing to grant the dying wish of First Republic Aviation
Minister Mbazulike Amaechi.
On several occasions, Amaechi had urged Buhari to release
IPOB’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
Despite his appeals and court ruling discharging and
acquitting Kanu, the Nigerian Government has refused to release the IPOB
leader.
However, IPOB said Amaechi was unhappy with Buhari for
ignoring his appeal to release Kanu.
A statement by IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful, said Buhari
refused to release Kanu due to his hatred for the Igbo people.
The statement reads partly: “IPOB worldwide will not forget
the effort of our father towards the release of our great liberator, Mazi
Nnamdi Kanu, who was kidnapped from Kenya to Nigeria by the Federal Government.
“In spite of his age and failing health, he led Igbo elder’s
visit to Aso Rock, Abuja, to plead with the Federal Government headed by Buhari
to release KANU as his last wish. But the President claimed that only the
judiciary would decide MNK’s fate.
“Even after the same Court has discharged and acquitted
Kanu, the same Buhari ignored the request of a dying old man and the Court
verdict because of incurable hatred towards Ndigbo.
“Buhari and his Fulani-controlled Federal Government must
understand that Mbazulike is not happy with them even in death for ignoring his
appeal for the release of Kanu.”
Kanu has been locked up since June last year when he was
arrested in Kenya.
Courts had ruled for his release, but the Nigerian
Government refused, stressing that he is a security risk.
