The first son of late former President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Jidechukwu Iwuanyanwu, has called on the federal government to honour his father’s last wish by releasing the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
In a statement issued on Sunday and made available to journalists in Owerri, Jidechukwu urged President Bola Tinubu to intervene in the matter by applying political solution to it.
He stated that his father’s last outing (Emmanuel lwuanyanwu) was to the DSS facility to see Nnamdi Kanu.
According to him, his father was made to walk for over 20 minutes as they didn’t let him drive in to see Kanu.
The statement read
Quote
“Undeterred, my father sojourned on to see Kanu, and had a father, son moment with Kanu.
“On returning home, my father complained of his heart and retired to his room to rest.
“The next morning he broke down, and was rushed to the hospital.
“He was at the hospital till his death. While at the hospital, he was still fighting for Kanu’s release and the realization of South East Development Commission for the betterment of Ala Igbo.
“I’m sure if he were alive he would have been happy to see one of his wishes come true.
“My father was a man of peace and a man who loved his people Ndigbo and Nigeria at large.
“Nnamdi Kanu’s release will bring further peace and also end the Monday’s sit-at-home in the South East zone.
“As Mazi Nnamdi appears in court today, therefore, I use this opportunity to urge the Federal Government to not let my father’s death be in vain, for his wish to be granted in releasing Mazi Kanu, which will also bring peace to our nation, Ndi Igbo.”
