South East Governors Not Doing Enough To Secure Kanu’s Release — Family by iamfraud(op): 7:12am On Feb 15, 2025
The family of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPoB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has accused South East Governors of not doing enough to secure his release.

Prince Emmanuel Kanu who spoke Friday in Umuahia during a memorial in honour of their late parents, HRM Eze Israel, and Ugoeze Sally Kanu, said the Governors had not demonstrated genuine commitment towards his freedom.

He wondered why the Governors had not met with the condition given to them by Mr President, arguing that if truly they are sincerely committed to his release, they would have sought an audience with the President over his case.

He said: ” South East Governors are not doing enough to secure the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. It’s either they are complicit or something. The big question is: Why have they not met with Mr President on Nnamdi Kanu? The information available to us is that Mr President asked them to meet with him officially over the matter but up till now they haven’t done so.

“Are the Governors benefiting from the unrest in the South East or what? What are they afraid of? Free Nnamdi Kanu today and all this tension in the South East will fizzle out in 24 hours because we will now know those hiding under the guise of the agitation for his release to perpetrate crime in the region.”

On the indefinite adjournment of Kanu’s trial, the family said Justice Binta Nyako, no longer had jurisdiction to preside over Kanu’s trial having earlier recused herself from the matter.

Kanu’s family also wondered why Justice Nyako would choose to adjourn the matter indefinitely, asking what her interest was in the matter.

“Why is she trying to force herself in the case? Does she have interest in the matter? We have said it severally that she is biased. She has turned down every application to relocate Nnamdi Kanu to prison custody instead of the DSS cell where they have held him for years under severe conditions”.

The family, therefore, called on the international community to prevail on the Nigerian authorities to release the IPoB leader who, it insisted, committed no crime to be incarcerated.

Prince Emmanuel commended Biafran elders and all those who gathered in the family to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the demise of the parents.

He said his parents died as a result of the trauma they had following the September 14 , 2017 military invasion of their country home.

“We are humbled to see the crowd that gathered in our house to honour my late parents who died as a result of the shock they had when the soldiers raided our house in 2017. 28 people were killed in our house during that raid. The people have renamed today, February 14 , Saint Kanu’s Day to honour my late parents who were buried on February 14. We appreciate everyone for coming especially those from outside South East States. We are encouraged by their show of love”.

He demanded the unconstitutional release of Kanu who he said, meant well for everyone, saying “we demand my brother’s release. The issues he raised are germane. His matter is a case of dialogue and meaningful conversation”.

Speaking earlier, the leader of Elders in Biafra land, High Chief Agonsi Ebere, said they came to honour Kanu’s late parents who laid down their lives for Biafra’s freedom.

He urged the Federal Government to heed the growing pleas for Kanu’s release, saying his continued detention will not bring any progress to Nigeria.

Chief Ebere appealed to President Bola Tinubu to release Kanu to Biafra elders, adding that his release will restore peace to the South East.

Adding his voice, the Akwa Ibom Regional head of the group, Aniekan Ekanem, said that “the masses are behind Kanu because he is championing a good cause”.

He explained that contrary to misconception in some quarters, Biafra is not an Igbo agenda but affects the people of the Old Eastern region.

According to him, Akwa Ibom “which is known as Igbo nta”, shares a lot in common with Igbo.
” We answer Igbo names like Udoh, Onyemaechi, etc. We are all brothers and nothing will separate us”, he said. Some of the elders came from Bayelsa, Rivers, Edo, Delta, Akwa Ibom, Cross River and the five South Eastern states.

Was it the south east governors that asked kanu to do all he was doing? Did he consult the south east governors before he created his army? Did he consult them before he asked his IPOB gang to attack Lagos and destroy it during end sars?

The govt is not going to release kanu untill he pays for all the attrocities he committed.

Igbo leaders and Nnamidi kanu family seems not to know the gravity of his offence. He can only been released on political ground after he and his supporters have been seriously remorseful of their actions and utterances.

Munu family.
When thr hunchedback albino delusional retar@ded imb@cile IPOB terrorist monkey was making all those terroristic treats, this asinine family didn't tell him to stop.
Now they want others to come and be begging on his behalf.
Na thunder go fire all of you.
Re: South East Governors Not Doing Enough To Secure Kanu’s Release — Family by AllBlack: 7:32am On Feb 15, 2025
1. who told the family that all the South East Governors have a collective desire to see Nnamdi Kanu released?

2. So the governors should leave the job which they were elected to do for millions of people and start facing ONE PERSON?

3. There are over 100 political heavyweights in Abia state (besides the governor). What have they all done?

Re: South East Governors Not Doing Enough To Secure Kanu’s Release — Family by alanto: 7:33am On Feb 15, 2025
People keep saying that if Kamu is released the violence and rampage going on in SE will stop?

Will Kanu order all the many faction of IPOB to gather together? Retrieve their guns and tell them to go in peace?

Shekau is dead and Boko Haram liveth.

The IPOB terrorist cannibal monkey will not be released.
He will be tried, sentenced and executed for his crimes against the Nigerian people, the Nigerian givt and against humanity.
Anything less is a travesty of justice.

Umahi the minister that Fulani northerners has taken as ransom against the Igbos. Nothing gives him orgasm than to serve APC or northern interest. I have never seen an individual so vested to serve other tribe to the detriment of his own. Even when Tinubu was serving Buhari, it is with a little bit of hypocrisy and cynicism until he took power. But Umahi is so pathetic and outlandish that it was to the chagrins of his people. He is the orchestrator and under his death body would Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's freedom see the light of the day

But he was insulting everyone of them why would they move for his release, with his attitude at the last hearing nobody would go near his case, he should show some remorse and see and he can be considered, not displaying such arrogance before the court, he could simply ask his lawyers to write for the chief judge about the judge.

You keep on releasing Boko Haram terrorists and keep Kanu tight


It's the South East Governors that are holding Kanu not even the FG, they are afraid of loosing influence once Kanu is released because Ndi igbo respect Kanu more than any of the so called political leaders.

However, Just that Kanu is not enjoying unrestricted freedom but believe me he is treated like a king in DSS custody.


If you have ever been detained by EFCC you will know how the treat you nice, begging you for money and even giving you access to your phones, some of them even run errands for you in town.......this is not the case with all these chingum yahoo boys

Nnamdi Kanu belongs in Jail.

Where was his family when he was being an instigator of civil unrest in the south east. A lot of lives and properties were lost of innocent Nigerians

He enforced this Monday sit at home, that has reduced the IGR of these states that are already struggling economically.

A lot of people have lost their lives to his terrorist activities and inadvertent support.


He set up a foreign money collection scheme where he was getting money to buy arms for the agitators, taking up arms against the Nigerian state.

Where were the family and the South East leaders when all these was happening......And he still has not shown remorse or begged for a plea deal.

Nnamdi Kanu is the last person that should be free in Nigeria.

Nigerian state should punish those who abuse their freedom. They should calculate how much each state has lost to the sit at home order, calculate all lost lives and properties and he should be asked to refund all these monies to the families and businesses affected.

This Kanu family must be very sick mentally. Same SE governors and elders your misguided and untrained Kanu said on live TV "who is that idiot to disobey my order in igbo land" so you want those idiots to now go and beg for his release so he can intimidate, bully, insult and harrass them more ba?

Una dey ment I swear. Arrogancy is deadly disease that always lead to downfall and regret.

Someone turned himself to God over entire tribe yet you his family could not talk to him to slow down now come online talking nonsense.

Kanu is going nowhere he is stubborn and rude ba? The govt are more sturbborn and rude than him. He is going nowhere, okwa ya?
