Rowland Owie, a former chief whip of the Senate has addressed President Muhammadu Buhari and urged to release the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, in order to reduce tension in the country, a report from Naij.com stated.
Owei asked the president to open a dialogue with those agitating for Biafran, however, he also asked Buhari to distance himself from those alleging that the IPOB is a militant group.
He urged the president to do his best to keep the nation together without alienating any group.
“I wish to remind President Muhammadu Buhari that every elected leader in Nigeria becomes a prisoner of palace jesters around him and become isolated from realities outside Aso Rock.President Buhari should open the prison door now and come out and face the reality,”Owei said.
“I urge President Buhari to release Kanu, the leader of the IPOB, now and dialogue with them. The President should not listen to palace jesters who are telling him that they are militants like Boko Haram. They are not.
“While Boko Haram leadership is not visible, the IPOB leadership is visible. Buhari should act now. A Bini parable says the king that folds his hands while his palace is burning ends up being a tenant,” he added.
