Southeast leaders have demanded the immediate release of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu from President Muhammadu Buhari.

The leaders made the plea in an address during a meeting with Buhari at the Executive Council Chambers, New Government House Abakaliki, capital of Ebonyi state.

Buhari is in Ebonyi State on a two-day working visit.

Chairman of Southeast Traditional Rulers Council, Eze Charles Mkpuma read the address.

He said: “We plead with you to temper Justice with mercy in the case of our son Nnamdi Kanu.”

Eze Mkpuma said the leaders have started discussion with all aggrieved groups and persons with a view to getting all of them to come to a roundtable discussion for an amicable resolution so that peace will return to the region.

The leaders commended the President for construction of second Niger Bridge, Akanu Bbiam Airport and many federal roads in the region.

He also asked for the President’s support for the southeast to produce the next president.

Kanu is no doubt a mad man but, I beseech the president on kanu's behalf so that peace will return fully in south east

A petition for world leaders to list IPOB as a terrorist group has started.


IPOB started as a separatist group in Nigeria, formed by Nnamdi Kanu. It has evolved into a terrorist organization. Many of terror attacks by IPOB include killing of Nigerian policemen, army, electoral officers. It uses force to enforce sit at home order in the south east region. Defaulters are attacked, some killed and properties destroyed.

We need world leaders to list/label IPOB as a terrorist group and prosecute any one promoting IPOB in their territories. We urge US, UK, EU and Israeli government to do this in order to prevent further loss of innocent lives in Nigeria.

The link is in my signature. Share it on Facebook and Twitter so many people can sign the petition. I tried to include the link in the post but Autobot swallowed it. So see the link in my signature.


End IPOB to save lives.
