He said there was relief having heard that his son, the Radio Biafra boss, was arraigned in court in good health.

The monarch also expressed his joy over the continued support of the “Biafran” people who rallied round the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

In an appeal to President Muhammdu Buhari, Eze Kanu urged the federal government to release his son, because he has not done anything wrong in fighting his course with just words.

He said there was no way to tell his son to backdown, stressing that Biafra is not just Kanu’s fight but the desire of the Igbo people.

Eze Ikputu noted that the Igbo people are like slaves in the country, hence the the call for their liberation.
