Ohanaeze Takes Responsibility For Nnamdi Kanu’s Detention

A faction of Ohanaeze Ndigbo has taken full responsibility for the non-release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The apex Igbo socio-cultural organization asserts that blame should be attributed to various stakeholders, including political elites, particularly the South-East governors and senators, traditional authorities, and the clergy.

Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the Secretary General of the faction, expressed concerns about the actions of South-East governors, highlighting their lack of understanding by placing undue reliance on President Bola Tinubu for Kanu’s release without addressing the root issues. Isiguzoro pointed out that despite claims from governors about visits to Tinubu and the expected release of Kanu, the outcomes consistently fell short of expectations.

The Igbo group also underscored the unsuccessful attempts by South-East senators to intervene in Kanu’s release in the Senate, citing a perceived lack of commitment from the governors.

Ohanaeze stressed that the most viable solution for Kanu’s release lies in engaging in confidential dialogues with non-state actors and Biafran agitators. It emphasized that the Federal Government expects Ndigbo to engage in constructive dialogue, establish a unified agenda, and find common ground before presenting certified conditions for Kanu’s release.

The organization further noted the unity of purpose among Oduduwa and Yoruba leadership in securing the release of Yoruba activist Sunday Igboho. Ohanaeze expressed concern that certain Igbo elders continue seeking audiences with Tinubu despite publicly denouncing his inauguration and secretly supporting his removal at the Supreme Court.

Isiguzoro said: “In light of these circumstances, Ohanaeze calls on South-East governors to convene a meeting with Biafra agitators, traditional rulers, the College of Igbo bishops and Ohanaeze.

“This inclusive gathering is essential for resolving the issues at hand. Without such a meeting, genuine pathways to peace in the South-East may continue to elude us.

“The South-East political elites must establish new rallying points in the absence of esteemed leaders like Alex Ekweme, Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu, or Pa Mbazulike Amaechi. Respected figures like Ochiagha Ebitu Ukiwe and Archbishop Obinna should assume leadership roles, as they are the individuals who can command the respect of Biafra agitators and others.”
