Chief Willie Obiano to prevail on President
Muhammadu Buhari to intervene on the matter why they were protesting peacefully
marching to the Government House to plead with
Anambra State governor on the arrest
of Director
of Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu
He said:
“We are only agitators who obey the
laws of the land. This is democracy and there is freedom of speech and freedom
of movement.
“Why would anybody detain our leader and in
the process be demanding bail fee of N2million. We have not come to fight
anybody because we are peace makers”
According to the CP:
“There is nothing like Indigenous People of Biafra. Those people constituted nuisance on the high way and that was why they were picked.
“Right now, I do not know the number of people that were picked, but I want to assure the people that anybody who disturbs the peace that exists in this state will not go unpunished.”
Meanwhile, the factional leadership of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has lent support to the Radio Biafra director.
In a press statement made available to reporters in Awka yesterday, the national director of information of the breakaway MASSOB, Mr Uchenna Madu said it was identifying with Kanu in the spirit of brotherhood pursuing one strong force for self determination.
