The Ndigbo Unity Forum (NUF), a pan-Igbo socio-cultural group, has tasked Igbo leaders on the need to impress on President Bola Tinubu to release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the proscribed Indigenous
People of Biafra (IPOB).
The President of NUF, Chief Augustine Chukwudum, told newsmen in Enugu on Tuesday that the release of Kanu would end Monday Sit-at-Home permanently in South-East.
According to Chukwudum, Kanu release from detention will reduce all the actorcities going on in South-East, where criminals commit crimes on the guise of self-determination.
“We mandate South-East Governors, Senators, House of Representatives and prominent traditional rulers, Minister of State Foreign Affair, Amb. Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu, prominent Umuada Igbo from the seven Igbo speaking states to meet with President Tinubu on this vital matter,” he said.
The NUF boss also pleaded with President Tinubu to heed to clarion call to release Kanu to check billions of naira traders loss each Monday and other days when speculations of sit-at-home are rumoured.
“The insecurity in the region has deprive our children education, thereby taking us backward academically.
“We are also recalling various appeal made to former President Muhammadu Buhari by elder statemen like late Chief Mbazurike Amaechi and late Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu,” he added.
