Mr Obi, who had been promising to run a democratic government if given the chance, said the proscribed group had been agitating legitimately.
The governors disclosed this in a communique issued at the end of the forum’s meeting held at the Government House, Enugu on Sunday.
Mr Kanu sued Messrs Malami and Abubakar for his extraordinary rendition from Kenya in June 2021.
The court held that the expulsion or extraordinary rendition of Mr Kanu, is a clear violation of his fundamental rights.
The regime is opposed to Nnamdi Kanu’s release, fearing that “he may not be available to face his charges in court because he had already jumped bail before.”
The group insists Mr Kanu is a terrorist and threat to national security, urging the Buhari regime not to release him from detention.
The attorney-general falsely claimed that today’s Appeal Court ruling was only about the illegality of Mr Kanu’s forced removal from Kenya and transfer to Nigeria.
“The court will never shy away from calling the Executive to order when it tilts towards executive recklessness.”
The Appeal Court sitting in Abuja discharged Mr Kanu who has been in detention for several months on Thursday.
Mr Kanu is asking the court to redress his infamous unlawful expulsion or extraordinary rendition from Kenya by the federal government.
