The Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mbah on Thursday, appealed to President Bola Tinubu to release the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu to hasten Nigeria’s healing. Mbah made the appeal while listing out decisions reached at the end of his first security council meeting with the heads of all security agencies in the state at the Lion Building, Enugu.
June 1, 2023The governor declared that effective from Monday, June 6, 2023, there would be no such restriction of movement.
He said, “I call on our newly sworn-in president, Bola Tinubu, to consciously work towards the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. We believe that his release will expedite the healing process Nigeria needs at this time. He added that such orders were restricting creativity, entrepreneurship, and productivity in the state.
At the meeting, which also had the Deputy Governor, Mr Ifeanyi Ossai, in attendance, the governor reminded the people of Enugu that he had hit the ground running on the day of his inauguration by signing three Executive Orders for the good governance of the state, including Executive Order 002 for the removal of “Unauthorised Street Barriers Across the State Within 100 Days”.
“The creativity and sense of industry of Ndi Igbo are remarkable. Our DNA is wired with commercial and entrepreneurial prowess.
