Northern Group Told Buhari To Perish The Thought Of Unconditional Release of IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu

By ABDULLAHI RABIU, Kano

THE Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) has said that the North would hold President Muhammadu Buhari responsible for the blood of Northerners who are mercilessly killed on the instructions of Fugitive leader Nnamdi Kanu if he dare the unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu.

The Group  has  condemned the recent move by the Igbo leaders calling for the unconditional release of the IPOB leaders describing the move as uncivilized.

Speaking during a Conference held at the NUJ  Press Centre on Monday the Spokesman of the group Alhaji Abdul- Azeez Sulaiman said any attempt by the President Buhari to accede to the demand to  release without prosecuting and punishing Kanu will inadvertently reduce Nigeria to a completely lawless state.

CNG  cautioned PMB to reclaim his statesmanship by refusing to be cajole or coerce into taking an inappropriate decision because the North would no longer remain idle when it’s people are deliberately targeted massacred while the perpetrators are shielded by criminal bigots who pose as leaders.

According to the CNG the atrocities committed by Nnamdi Kanu is unpardonable and no amount of plea would make the President to succumb to pressure and ensure his unconditional release.

CNG which goes down to memory lane said since early 2020 Kanu had been instigating the proscribed IPOB to continue to mastermind mindless attacks and destruction of national Security assets. Democratic symbols and wanton killings of about 400 Security personnel and ohphaned their families.”

Kanu’s negative action Climaxed when he later hijacked the END SARS protest and openly incited the callous dehumanizing Cannibalistic murder of 250 Security personnel and the razing of hundreds of Police stations,

Security facilities and private businesses of Nigerians from other parts of the Country.

” Since 2021 Kanu continue to play a major role in the ongoing insurgency in Southern Nigeria as his Eastern Security Network (ESN) battle the nation’s Security forces.

CNG said ” through out these years the igbo leaders who are today all over the place seeking his unconditional release never seemed it necessary to call him to order to creat any distance from his atrocious activities against the state and collective mayhem against Nigerians and the North .

While commenting on the latest desperation by the Igbo leaders seeking to free Kanu and Buhari’s disturbing pledge said “the composition of the Igbo elders group has vindicated the position we have expoused since 2017, that the diabolical scheme planned and exhibited in the criminal actions of Kanu and IPOB is fully supported morally and politically by the vast majority of the pliant Igbo leaders .
