Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, on Monday, backed Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State and Senate Chief Whip, Orji Uzor Kalu on
the urgent need for the Federal Government to unconditionally release the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
HURIWA also charged Buhari to justify the “African Award for Strengthening Peace’’ he is about to receive in Nouakchott, the Mauritanian capital on Tuesday. Many renowned Igbo sons and daughters including revered elders of the apex Igbo sociopolitical group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo such as former Governor of Anambra State, Chukwuemeka Ezeife, amongst others have made similar appeals to the President to release Kanu. In fact, many of these have held private physical meetings with the President on Kanu’s release.
HURIWA’s Onwubiko said, “The rising calls by well-meaning South-East leaders for Nnamdi Kanu’s release amidst a rising state of insecurity and targeted attacks in the South-East should not be ignored by President Muhammadu Buhari especially as he prepares to go into a quiet retirement whereby he ought to prepare his credentials as a Statesman and not a regional bigot of the North of Nigeria.
