Reno Omokri, a former media aide to ex-president Goodluck
Jonathan, has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to plead with the British
monarch, King Charles III for a royal prerogative of mercy for former deputy
senate president, Ike Ekweremadu.
Recall that a UK Court on Friday sentenced
Ekweremadu to 9 years and eight months, while his wife Beatrice and Obinna
Obetta got four years and ten years jail terms, respectively.
Taking to his Twitter handle, Omokri urged President Buhari
to seek for a royal pardon for Ekweremadu as a parting gift to Nigeria.
He said if the president accede to the request, history will
remember him for good.
He wrote, “As a parting gift to Nigeria, I appeal to
President Muhammadu Buhari to use his private audience with King Charles III to
appeal for a royal prerogative of mercy for Senator Ike Ekweremadu, which is
within the power of the British monarch.
”The President will forever be appreciated and remembered
for this gesture to a man who has served Nigeria loyally and dedicatedly and
who only committed the crime he was convicted of because of desperation, as a
loving father of a child in dire need of a kidney transplant.”

Why don't you appeal for PMB to intervene into DCP Abba Kyary's case to be pardon and released. Because Kyary had performed excellent in fighting crime and criminality in Nigeria.
