EXCLUSIVE: Igbo Senators To Visit Nnamdi Kanu At Kuje Prison by Kamanuozuzu: 7:22am On Nov 15, 2016
– Senators from the South east have resolved to stick out their neck for their people

– The senators will make an attempt to engage detained Radio Biafra director, Nnamdi Kanu

– This is part of their resolve after meeting President Muhammadu Buhari

NAIJ.com has gathered from reliable sources in the Senate that South east senators have resolved to visit detained Radio Biafra director, Nnamdi Kanu in prison. Kanu, 46, is currently being detained at the famous Kuje prison, located in the suburbs of Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja.

Among the issues discussed were:

1. The rejected $29.9 loan request of the president by the Nigerian Senate

2. Nnamdi Kanu’s detention

3. Rehabilitation of federal roads in the South east

4. Commencement of the 2nd River Niger

5. Appointment of Igbos in the National Security Council

6. Construction of a standard rail gauge from Agbor to Onitsha

7. Address the issues of kidnapping and Fulani herdsmen violence

8. Establishment of a dry port in Abia, Anambra and Enugu states

9. Construction of extra River Basin Development Authority for the Southeast and

10. Rehabilitation of the Enugu International Airport. “Of particular interest to the senators is the detention of Kanu.

They told the president in clear terms that his continued detention will only aggravate the security situation in the South east, ” a source who preferred to remain anonymous told NAIJ.com.

He continued: “Even as they made a case for him, the senators also decided to visit Kanu in prison in order to caution him against unguarded utterances and urge him to call his supporters to order.

“The distinguished senators feel they owe it as a duty to the region to ensure his release, especially because they are aware of Kanu’s rising popularity in Igbo land. ”

It is not clear whether President Buhari will heed to the demands of the senators, but the government seems desperate to get the loan.

“The government is desperate at this point and will likely meet at least their key demands,” a source in government circles squealed to NAIJ.com.

All South east senators voted against the president’s attempt to get the loan except Senator Benjamin Uwajumogu representing Imo North Senatorial District. Uwajumogu is the only All Progressives Congress (APC) senator from the South east. He was absent from the Aso Rock parley.

Nnamdi Kanu was arrested in Lagos in October 2015 by federal government agents and has been held in prison since then despite various court orders that ruled for his release.

He has a cult following in the South east as a result of the propaganda he spilled through his pirate radio station, Radio Biafra.

Kanu is a senior member of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, a group insisting on the sovereignty of the South east region as an independent country out of Nigeria.

The writer of this article noted that "He (Nnamdi Kanu) has a cult following in the Southeast as a result of the propaganda he spilled (sic) through his pirate radio station, Radio Biafra".

So, Radio Biafra London duly registered in London and paying taxes to British Government is now a "pirate" station? Nawaoh for zoo journalists.

These senators are very ignorant of Kanu's plans and strategies.

Dilector Kanu deliberately allowed himself to be arrested by the FG so he can unleash his 1 million soldiers and riffles on the zoo.

It was a plot Nigeria and PMB fell for.

PMB, why? Why did you fall for the bait?
cool angry

Incredible. So because of money to loot the FG are even listening to SE senators. I shake my head. If this move gets Nnamdi Kanu out of prison,it would be really great! Then again I wonder if this is a fallout from the Northern/Eastern proposed alliance been carried in the media. I'm just looking at this people.

Any visit to Kanu not focused on restructuring the country or giving Biafra their freedom is dead on arrival.

Nnamdi Kanu will demand unconditional release and stand on it. Anything short of it is dead on arrival. They should study Kanu, he is not in a hurry to leave the jail, especially if conditions are attached to his release.

Has the Zoo remained the same ever since?

33 states can't pay salaries. I'm sure u know inflation rate is almost 20% (that's if u know what that means), far more than Somalia's.

Nnamdi Kanu once said Somalia will be a Paradise by the time he's done with the Zoo.

You sure know what time it is. Self-denial will worsen ur case.
