The Concerned Igbo Ministers Commission, an inter-religious group, has accused South-East governors of conspiring to keep the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, in detention for political reasons.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a statement signed by the group’s President/Coordinator, Rev. Tony Uzo Anthony, and General Secretary, Apostle Tony Osuji, they described Kanu’s incarceration as part of a “demonic scheme” against the Igbo people.
The group condemned the failure to obey the Supreme Court ruling on Kanu’s release and questioned the motivations of the judge presiding over his case.
According to them, the judge had previously admitted that the charges against Kanu were politically motivated and baseless, yet has continued to stall his release.
“We believe the South-East governors are part of a conspiracy to keep Kanu detained for political reasons, possibly to use his eventual release to help President Bola Tinubu gain support in the South-East and South-South regions,” the statement read.
The group called on Nigerians, traditional rulers, religious leaders, and the international community to unite in condemning what they described as an unjust plot to undermine the rights of Kanu and the Igbo people.
They also urged diaspora communities to pressure foreign governments and institutions, including those in Kenya and Britain, to intervene in the case.
“Those who profit from the current instability in the South-East, including South-East governors benefiting from security votes, should engage with Kanu to find a peaceful resolution,” the statement concluded.
