Tinubu to Release Nnamdi Kanu From Prison
Nnamdi Kanu | President Bola Tinubu

The family of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has issued a poignant plea to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

They urge Tinubu to honour the memory of the late Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, former President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, by facilitating Kanu’s release.

The family believes that such an act would be a fitting tribute to the late Igbo leader, who passed away in July 2024 and is set to be laid to rest on November 2, 2024.

In a statement from Kanu’s brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu, the family also called on South East governors and other key figures to unite in their efforts to secure Kanu’s freedom, urging them to demonstrate true leadership.

The family stressed that Justice Binta Nyako’s recent recusal from Kanu’s trial presents an opportunity for a political resolution.

They criticised the judge’s refusal to adhere to Supreme Court orders, describing it as a source of international embarrassment for Nigeria.

Prince Kanu appealed to the President to extend the same fairness and justice that led to the release of Yoruba self-determination leader Sunday Igboho, adding that Kanu’s release would help address the marginalisation of the Igbo people.

He called for the full implementation of the “Three Rs” — Rehabilitation, Reintegration, and Restoration — to heal the wounds of the Nigerian Civil War and ensure justice for the Igbo community.

The family also urged traditional and religious leaders to foster a platform for collective action.

While acknowledging that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s rhetoric may have offended some, they insisted it does not stem from hatred.

The family said:

“He cares for and respects people but expresses concern when matters are mishandled. He has no interest in holding political office in Nigeria; his primary focus is on the proper development of Biafra land with equal opportunities for all.”
