Elder statesman and founder of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chekwas Okorie, has renewed his appeal to President Bola Tinubu to facilitate the release of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, and other prisoners of conscience in the country.
In a statement sent to The Guardian in Enugu on Wednesday, Okorie emphasized that Kanu has endured severe hardship since 2015, including his extraordinary rendition from Kenya on June 27, 2021.
He warned that with the current legal situation, Kanu’s case could be restarted from scratch.
