The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) says the federal government has agreed to release Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and Charles and Henry Okah, who are standing trial for alleged terrorism.

The group said the government has also agreed not to arrest Government Ekpemupolo, better known as Tompolo, whom the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared wanted.
MEND added that an agreement has also been reached to review the life sentence handed to Edmund Ebiware, the alleged mastermind of the 2010 independence day bombing.

According to Jomo Gbomo, MEND’s spokesman, the agreements were reached as parts of moves to resolve the Niger Delta crisis.
Gbomo said Adolphus Wabara, former senate president, led the negotiating team which arrived at the deal with the government.

“The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) is the only militant group from the Niger Delta region who are presently engaged in a dialogue with the federal government of Nigeria – through oil companies and security agencies -with a view to resolving the current Niger Delta crisis,” the statement read.

“Thus far, the deliberations have been fruitful, various concessions and guarantees have already been secured. Some of which include, but are not limited to: release of Henry Okah, Charles Okah and Obi Nwabueze; review of the life sentence handed to Mr. Edmund Ebiware based on a proposal put forward by the Aaron Team representative for Abia and Imo states, Senator Adolphus Wabara.

“Also, conditional release of IPOB leader, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu and others if they renounce their agitation for a “Biafra Republic,” the group said. Furthermore, MEND said they agreed:

“That Mr. Government Ekpemupolo shall not be arrested, harassed and/or intimidated whenever he makes himself available as a delegate of the MEND Aaron Team.”
