IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu and President Muhammadu Buhari
PRESIDENT BUHARI TO IGBO LEADERS: YOUR DEMAND FOR NNAMDI KANU’S RELEASE IS HEAVY. I WILL CONSIDER IT

“You’ve made an extremely difficult demand on me as chief of this country. The implication of your request is very serious. In the final six years, seeing that I grew to end up President, no character would say I have confronted or interfered in the work of the Judiciary. God has spared you, and given you a clear head at this age, with very sharp memory. A lot of human beings 1/2 of your age are confused already. But the demand you made is heavy. I will think about it.”

Let him make his case in court, as an alternative of giving very terrible impressions of the us of a from outside. I feel it’s even a favour to supply him that opportunity.”
The President condoled with Chief Amaechi, who presently buried his wife, praying that her soul would rest in peace.

He pleaded for a political, however than navy solution, soliciting for that if Kanu was as soon as released to him as the only First Republic Minister nevertheless alive, “he would no longer say the things he had been saying,” stressing that he ought to manage him, “not due to the truth I have something to do with them (IPOB), on the other hand I am relatively revered in Igbo land today.”
Chief Amaechi stated twice he had interfaced with Nnamdi Kanu in the past, and the latter rescinded orders earlier than given on civil disobedience.
He concluded: “I don’t decide on to depart this planet besides peace returning to my country. I consider in one big, united Nigeria, a strain in Africa. Mr President, I desire you to be remembered as a persona who observed Nigeria burning, and you quenched the fire.”
