Obey Court Order on Nnamdi Kanu, Clark Tells Buhari Emameh Gabriel in Abuja Niger Delta statesman and leader of Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Chief Edwin Clark has called on President Muhammadu Bub
Niger Delta statesman and leader of Pan Niger Delta Forum , Chief Edwin Clark has called on President Muhammadu Bubari to release the leader of the Independent People of Biafra , Nnamdi Kanu, who was recently discharged of terrorism charges by an appeal court.
The former federal commissioner said: “I consider this stance of the federal government as rather imperious and needless. I, therefore, earnestly call on President Muhammadu Buhari to obey the judgement of the Court of Appeal and order the immediate release of Nnamdi Kanu in the interest of peace in the country and the south- east in particular.
“Even though certain activities of Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB followers have been a nuisance and very disturbing, the federal government went too far in going all the way to Kenya to abduct him on the ground that he jumped bail.” He said, “the President responded that Nnamdi Kanu’s fate will be decided by the court and even when they visited him at Aso Rock, the president again said the matter was no longer in his hands and the security agencies, but in the hand of the judiciary and that whatever the court decides would be final.
