The Eastern Intelligentsia Coalition has said that releasing the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra , Nnamdi Kanu, unconditionally will reverse allegations of ethnic and religious bigotry levelled against the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government.
The statement was signed by Patron of the group, Prof. Obasi Igwe; the Chairman, Okey Onuakalusi; and Secretary, Dr. Kenneth Nwankwo.According to the group, since 2015, Nigeria entered “the era of redefinitions”, as being described by many, stressing that within the period, an impression had been created that policies and actions of the Federal Government were targeted against a section of the country, thereby denying them a future in their own land.
Justifying the call for his unconditional release, it stated: “Given that by ethnic association, the Igbo have nearly become synonymous with IPOB, the trial of the group will be a trial of the Igbo nation by your government.
Lmao nice attempt 😂🤣 The case is in court... Buhari can't stop it. Let Kanu defend himself before the judge
