A Niger Delta leader, Asari Dokubo, has asked President Bola
Tinubu not to release the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.
Dokubo disclosed this while addressing journalists after
meeting with President Tinubu at Presidential Villa in Abuja on Friday.
Niger Delta leader, who noted that releasing Kanu means
rewarding criminality and gruesome murder of innocent people, said Kanu should
face the law.
Recall that since Kanu’s re-arrest in 2021, the embattled
IPOB leader has been in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS),
standing trial for terrorism.
A Federal High Court in Abuja had granted him bail in 2017
but he flouted the bail conditions and subsequently fled the country, and was
thereafter re-arrested.
Former President Muhammadu Buhari had resisted pressure to
release Kanu, but with the entry of a new government, there have been calls for
the IPOB leader’s release.
Speaking on Kanu’s detention, Dokubo said, “Releasing Nnamdi
Kanu is rewarding criminality and rewarding gruesome murder of innocent
people,” he said at the. “He should face the law for the actions and
instigations he has carried out.
“On security, I want to clearly say that there are
full-scale wars going on in different parts of this country. In the South East,
the IPOB/ESN is waging a full-scale war against the government of this country
and many local governments, many communities are deserted, schools are closed,
and hospitals are closed,” he added.
