“I expect that the President will listen to both his Attorney General and every one of us who have been agitating that the issues in the South East; first of all the insurgency, the sit at home on Mondays and every other thing we have noticed in the South East, what we now know in the South East is that criminals and all other people who advocate violence have taken over and using the name Nnamdi Kanu to perpetuate all these their despicable acts”.
“We know that the President, being a listening President, will also look at all the issues involved which we have presented to him from various mediums, that he will do the needful and release Nnamdi Kanu so that it will put a stop to all these things that are happening in the South East and bring back the South East as the hub of production in Nigeria”,
He remarked that the release of Nnamdi Kanu is instrumental to the return of peace to revive the economy of South East Region.
“The President wants to pass a tax bill that has to do with production. You cannot tax people who don’t produce. So he needs Nnamdi Kanu out so that all those things that are holding us down in the South East, that have made us not to produce as much as we ought to produce, will not be there”.
“So, we continue to call on President Tinubu to release Nnamdi Kanu and we are ready and willing to be guarantors for him to be released so that we can have life coming back into the South East and take it away from the criminals, kidnappers, the cultists and dangerous elements that are floating around us who have made it a point that they would perpetrate violence, do criminal activities and use Nnamdi Kanu’s name as their reason”, Senator Abiriba Stated.
Senator Abaribe questioned why people would be killing people they claim to be agitating on their behalf, stressing that it is not the proper way to agitate.
