These are the people who understand that the continuous incarceration and detention of Kanu would result in insecurity, hardship in the Southeast, and destabilize the most peaceful zone in Nigeria, and by so doing, they encouraged Buhari to ensure that Kanu\u2019s detention was done to make Igbos rebel against themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIrrespective of the pleas by elder statesmen like late Mbazulike Amaechi to Buhari to release Kanu, these people have continued to mount pressure to ensure his incarceration beyond Tinubu\u2019s tenure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost of them cite instances that former MEND leader, Henry Okar is still in detention after he threatened to blow up the Eagles Square in 2003. Most of them are fighting that they should place Kanu in the same list they placed deadly Boko Haram members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese things are deliberate acts to push Southeast and the Monday sit-at-home to the brink so that people of the region will fight back and they would unleash the military on them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that it will be very difficult for Mr President to be surrounded by persons who will not wish to see Kanu free, the message to Ndigbo is that the enemies are at work, so they should not expect Kanu\u2019s release soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKanu\u2019s release will surely come, but not so soon because this government is just starting, and the roadblock is too long; it will take the hand of God and Tinubu to defeat these enemies around him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
