In accepting IPOB’s denial, which seemed to have come from a faction of the secessionist movement, the opposition leader appeared to be ignoring the public statement of Simon Ekpa.
It is important to pursue peace. But it is more important to pursue it from the bearings of strength.
Although Article 2 of the constitution is against secession, Mr Dokubo argued that it would serve as a cleansing action of the entire country.
However, Mr Abbas rejected and deferred an amendment to the motion to include the release of Mr Kanu.
The Senate majority leader responded to a new report by the European Union election observers, who found widespread violence during the February 25, 2023, exercise.
The armed men stated that the release of Mr Kanu was the only condition for ending the sit-at-home order enforced in the South-East.
In August 2021, IPOB introduced a sit-at-home order every Monday across the Southeast to pressure the government to release its detained leader, Kanu.
He dismissed allegations that Mr Kanu jumped bail on April 25, 2017, after the court granted him bail.
Mr Kanu also confirmed his new doctors Uche Ukwuije and David Ukoha, would be available for a visit on Tuesday, June 20, 2023 at 10:00 a.m.
The protests were destabilised as state sponsored thugs unleashed mayhem on protesters under supervision of the Nigerian police.
