Aloy Ejimakor, Consultant to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has urged Igbo leaders to emulate former President Olusegun Obasanjo and visit the Biafra agitator in Sokoto Custodial Centre.
Ejimakor recalled how Obasanjo and Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, visited Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Igboho, in Benin Republic.
He noted that Obasanjo and Soyinka were not afraid of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Posting on X, he wrote: “Dear Igbo leaders: Rise up, be of good courage & visit Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in Sokoto.
“Emulate Obasanjo, Soyinka & other Yoruba leaders who visited Igboho in Benin Republic.
“They never feared Buhari because it was a just cause. To #FreeMNK is also a just cause & it’s urgent. Yes.”
Recall that Justice James Omotosho of an Abuja Federal High Court had convicted Kanu to life imprisonment for charges bordering on terrorism.
Following the conviction, Justice Omotosho ordered the IPOB leader to serve his time in the Sokoto Custodial Centre.
Since arriving at Sokoto Custodial Centre, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State has paid him a visit.
