Igbo youths under the auspices of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council has begged for the intervention of President Muhammadu Buhari in stopping the arrest order handed down by a Federal High Court, Abuja against the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.

It would be recalled that the Abuja court had on Thursday ordered the arrest of Kanu and ordered that his trial on charges of treasonable felony should proceed in absentia.

Kanu’s bail granted in 2017 was also revoked by the court.

The President-General of the youth group Okechukwu Isiguzoro, and Secretary General, Okwu Nnabuike, made the plea in a statement on Saturday, adding that such action might destabilise the fragile peace that had returned to the South-East region.

According to them, Kanu’s first arrest witnessed widespread instability in the region.

They pleaded with President Buhari to pardon Biafra agitators as a way of showing compassion to Igbo.

“The leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide received the pronouncement and re-arrest order of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, by a Federal High Court in Abuja with rude shock and disbelief.

“Weighing the implications of such action, it may destabilise the fragile peace that have returned to the southern part of Nigeria, especially the South-East and South-South after the sad experiences witnessed during his first arrest and subsequently the untimely death of innocent Igbo youths and women that characterised his first arrest and detention.

“And there is no need to escalate the tension already established in the South-East over the menace of herdsmen ravaging parts of Igboland. There is no need to compound our loss by allowing Nnamdi Kanu return now until Igbo Christians and Traditional leaders intervene in the process.

“We are pleading with President Buhari as the father of the nation to grant presidential pardon to Nnamdi Kanu, as a way of showing compassion to Ndigbo”, the statement reads in part.

Lol Buhari giving IPOB presidential pardon no way. Maybe Atiku of Cameroon would have done that and more. What do they mean by intervene?

This news was also carried by The cable and Sahara Reporter's as well.

How about getting him a "GUBERNATORIAL" pardon from Ebonyi state?

Nonsense and ingredients!

Grant pardon to someone that didn't show any sign of remorse,

Someone that has stoked up the flames of disunity in the country

That didn't even ask to be pardoned, and still keeps making empty threats

If not that some of us have been blinded by bigotry and tribalism we'd see that the guy is a scam and just a tool to propagate a political party's agenda

A biafra or death
B. No election in biafra
C. Vote for Atiku

I actually wanna see what would be the narrative now


I dunno why people don't address Buhari as Jubril again, or has Buhari been resurrected smh

On one condition

He should apologise to all the tribes, regions, individuals and associations he had abused

First of all, we don't need to "beg" Buhari for anything as that is a sign of weakness, and Ndigbo are not weak people.

Secondly, who are the so-called Ndigbo youths, and who made them spokespeople for the Igbo people??

Thirdly, is Nnamdi Kanu ready to let peace reign ??

sdf

So they can beg?
lol

Cowards, don't start what you can't finish

Pardon Ko, panadol ni

Who are these clowns masquerading as Ndi Igbo youths?

What is KANU guilty of? Apology should be the other way round.

Who authorized this charade?
These paid jobbers should just ship off.

Does he deserve to be pardoned? He is better off on exile wherever he is now abeg.

Theres been some peace since he ran away like the coward he is. Okada and wheel barrow boys( his major followers) have all gone back to their jobs. Peace and Calm.

The first sensible people from the east in a very long time

una dey mad

“We are pleading with President Buhari as the father of the nation to grant presidential pardon to Nnamdi Kanu, as a way of showing compassion to Ndigbo”, the statement reads in part.

• Kanu and legal counsel aren't asking for a pardon. IPOB hasn't admitted guilt or apologized.

• IPOB ≠ Igbo. Pardoning him isnt a favor to Igbo tribe. Unless you feel Igbos are collectively guilty. It would be like saying give Bloods pardon to show compassion to blacks.

• Consider asking for gubernatorial pardon for imprisoned Igbos if possible. The chances of Buhari doing it are slim. Lets not forget SE governors proscribed IPOB before FG.

This ones are idle, did Nnamdi send them to go beg on his behalf?

It's for the good of all.

Lol. LWTMB.

This political comedians will not allow us to rest? Every week new story to keep us busy and forget the failure of the government. Enough of this shit! Pls, what's up with presidential election tribunal?

It hurts to say this but Nnamdi Kanu deserves to be locked up and quickly

Lmao .


Insolent Prodigal children of Biafra


Kindly stop using south south and biafra in the same sentence

We ain’t part of y’all foolishness

Ipob will come and deny dis...funny enough dey r sons and daughters of nobody

Let Wait for Atiku 2023 for a proper presidential pardon.

Buhari pls have mercy on the Igbos. They are our bloders show them compassion Abeg.

No need granting him Presidential anything because he will still abuse. That guy is not well.

I think Atiku promised Nnamdi Kanu amnesty if he won the last election, that was why he called off his ipob boycott after striking the deal through Chidoka et al. Getting Buhari to grant the same might be tough though.

See them, they won't beg for good cause but for a runaway tout who does not even care if Ohaneze existed

Yeah! Grant him pardon so that he can be free to insult, mock and rubbish you and eventually conclude the emancipation and realization of the republic of Biafra.
