Cubana Chiefpriest, the Nigerian entrepreneur and socialite, has publicly appealed to Senate President Godswill Akpabio to facilitate the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). In his statement, Chiefpriest emphasized that Kanu’s release is crucial for restoring peace in the Southeast, a region that has been plagued by insecurity for over five years. He also highlighted the need to rebuild Igboland and address the ongoing challenges caused by the unrest.
This call aligns with broader appeals from other stakeholders, including Igbo leaders and activists, who argue that Kanu’s continued detention exacerbates the instability in the region. They suggest that his release could foster reconciliation and allow the Southeast to focus on development and peace-building efforts.
