PHOTOS: Soludo visits detained IPOB leader, Kanu

Governor Chukwuma Soludo has visited the detained leader of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), Mr. Nnamdi Kanu.

Soludo, in a Facebook post on Saturday, confirmed that he visited Kanu on Friday in his detention centre in Abuja.

According to him, “I visited Mazi Nnamdi Kanu on Friday, 13th May, 2022 to felicitate with him and also as part of the wider consultations with critical stakeholders in search of lasting peace and security in the South-East.

“He was in very high spirits and we had quality and frank discussion in a very convivial atmosphere. He expressed sadness over what he described as “sacrilegious killings” of innocent persons, kidnappings and all forms of criminalities, including the brutal enforcement of the senseless “sit at home” perpetuated by sundry groups claiming to be acting for or on behalf of IPOB. “He assured that if the opportunity arises, he will be glad to personally broadcast to his followers to maintain the peace.
