Obi Aguocha, the representative for the Ikwuano/Umuahia constituency in the National Assembly, has revealed that former President Mohammadu Buhari has assured him that he will not oppose a political resolution for the release of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
Aguocha shared this update following a visit to Buhari’s residence in Daura, Katsina State, where he sought the former President’s intervention and support for a political resolution to Kanu’s continued detention and trial.
During the visit, Aguocha apologized on behalf of his constituent, Nnamdi Kanu, for any previous missteps and emphasized the importance of promoting understanding and unity.
“Former President Buhari welcomed my approach and assured me that he would not oppose a political solution for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s release,” Aguocha stated.
He added that this meeting is part of a broader initiative aimed at achieving a swift political resolution and the subsequent release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, highlighting the importance of dialogue and non-contentious methods for addressing national issues.
Aguocha expressed confidence that, with the former President’s assurance and a letter of appeal signed by 50 House of Representatives members addressed to President Bola Tinubu regarding Kanu’s conditions, the IPOB leader would soon be released through a political resolution.
