Igbo leaders have been challenged to emulate former President Olusegun Obasanjo by visiting the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in Sokoto Custodial Centre,.
Aloy Ejimakor, Consultant to Nnamdi Kanu who made the call, also recalled how Obasanjo and Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, visited Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Igboho, in Benin Republic.
According to him, Obasanjo and Soyinka were not afraid of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ejimakor who made the call on X, said: “Dear Igbo leaders: Rise up, be of good courage & visit Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in Sokoto.
“Emulate Obasanjo, Soyinka & other Yoruba leaders who visited Igboho in Benin Republic.
Continuing, “They never feared Buhari because it was a just cause. To #FreeMNK is also a just cause & it’s urgent. Yes.”
Justice James Omotosho of an Abuja Federal High Court had convicted Kanu to life imprisonment for charges bordering on terrorism.
After the conviction, Justice Omotosho ordered the IPOB leader to serve his time in the Sokoto Custodial Centre.
Recall that since arriving at Sokoto Custodial Centre, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State has paid him a visit.
