Bianca Ojukwu’s Important Message To Buhari Over Nnamdi Kanu

Bianca Ojukwu, wife of former Biafran activist, Chukuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to release Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Bianca spoke during the 10th year memorial lecture in honour of her late husband which held in Owerri, the Imo state capital on Friday, urged Buhari to consider the plea made by some Igbo leaders during their recent visit to the State House, Abuja, asking for Kanu’s release.

According to her, Kanu’s release would demonstrate Buhari’s magnanimity, adding that the clamour for secession is a direct consequence of perceived inequality in distribution of resources and political appointments in the country.

“Kanu’s release will further buttress President Buhari’s commitment to healing the wounds inflicted by the sense of marginalisation felt by the Igbo nation,” she said.
