Aloy Ejimakor has revealed the reason former President Muhammadu Buhari arrested and detained the Nnamdi Kanu.
Ejimakor who is the Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB said Buhari detained Kanu due to tribalism.

“Buhari’s detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was not based on law but on the politics of tribalism that has dogged Nigeria since time. Tinubu (@officialABAT) shouldn’t validate it. #FreeMNK,” he wrote.
Kanu was picked up during Buhari’s administration due to his agitation for the actualization of Biafra.
He was arrested in Kenya and subjected to an extraordinary rendition to Nigeria in June 2021.
Following his return to Nigeria, the Nigerian Government re-arraigned him in court.
Despite being discharged and acquitted, the Nigerian Government has refused to set Kanu free as he languishes in the custody of the Department of State Services, DSS.
