. Reacts To Asari Dokub\u2019s Outburst, Demolition of Igbo Buildings At Alaba Market<\/b><\/p>\n
The Vice President of Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Damian Okeke-Ogene, has urged the Federal Government to heed the call to release Mr Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).<\/p>\n
Okeke-Ogene said the time is now apt for the federal government to heed calls from prominent Nigerians to release Kanu.<\/p>\n
He disclosed that Anambra Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, and other stakeholders in the past have urged the federal government to release Kanu.<\/p>\n
Okeke-Ogene said restoration and promotion of the rule of law and respect for the fundamental human rights of individuals are key to stabilising the polity.<\/p>\n
He said respect for the rule of law restores people\u2019s confidence in governance and appealed to the government to shun calls for Kanu\u2019s continued detention.<\/p>\n
He condemned in strong terms the recent outburst of the ex-Niger Delta militant leader, Asari Dokubo, asking the Federal Government not to release the IPOB leader.<\/p>\n
Okeke-Ogene said such a call was prompted by personal and selfish interests to attract favour from the government.<\/p>\n
According to Okeke-Ogene, the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu is not in the interest of the country since different courts of competent jurisdiction \u201chave already freed him\u201d.<\/p>\n
He assured that Igbo stakeholders are not relenting in the efforts to ensure that Kanu is released.<\/p>\n
Okeke-Ogene reacted to the demolition of some buildings at Alaba Market in Lagos State and urged Igbos in the area to remain calm.<\/p>\n
He said that the Ohaneze Ndigbo leadership is taking measures and efforts to ensure a peaceful resolution of the matter to protect their interests.<\/p>\n
