President Muhammadu Buhari has reacted to the possibility of releasing Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
Speaking on Channels TV, the President stated that he cannot guaranty his freedom because he doesn’t interfere with the judiciary.
“Nigerians know that I don’t interfere with the judiciary. Let him be listened to. For those who are saying that we should release him, no we cannot release him.
The president, however, believes there is a possibility of a political solution if the concerned individuals behave themselves.
Furthermore, the President proceeded by highlighting the crimes committed by Nnamdi Kanu while he was abroad. He disclosed that his administration is giving Nnamdi Kanu the chance to defend his claims.
“Kanu’s case is with the judiciary, but what I wonder is when Kanu was safely in Europe abusing this administration and mentioning too many things, I never thought really he wants to voluntarily come and defend himself on the accusations.
“So, we are giving him an opportunity to defend himself in our system, not to be abusing us from Europe as if he was not a Nigerian. Let him come here to us and then criticise us here.”
“There is a possibility of political solution; if people behave themselves, all well and good, but you can’t go to a foreign country and keep on sending incorrect economic and security problem against your country and thinking that you will never have to account for what you have been doing. Let him account for what he has been doing.”
