Ugochinyere Imo, the Spokesperson for the Coalition of United Political Parties, has voiced his concerns over the worsening health of Indigenous People of Biafra leader Nnamdi Kanu in Department of Security Service custody.
Imo strongly encourages President Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) to release Kanu in order to let him handle health issues and so avoid national turmoil.
He said, “I got off the phone from the lawyer to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, were his deteriorating health condition was brought to my notice. I want to urge Mr President in the interest of peace and security to order the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“There are several court judgements which have declared his continuous detention illegal. Mr President has the constitutional power through the attorney general to order for the discontinuance of the matter. Kanu should be released then we come to the negotiation table and address those issues that led to the agitation.”
Imo also voiced condemnation towards terrorism charges brought against Central Bank of Nigeria Governor Godwin Emefiele by DSS which many view as discrimination against Southerners, along with criticism at House of Assembly members for voting against a resolution for judiciary, local government and parliamentary autonomy.
He bid the Imo people to vote out their lawmakers for mocking state freedom and independence.
