German Country Director Begs Tinubu To Release Nnamdi Kanu

Hon. Obinna Ichita, the Country Director/Principal Representative of the German Initiative for Knowledge Transfer in Nigeria, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to release Nnamdi Kanu.

Ichita who until he was appointed Country Director/Principal Representative of German Initiative for Knowledge Transfer in Nigeria, the 2023 Deputy Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and lawmaker representing Aba South State Constituency in an exclusive interview with our correspondent on Saturday in Aba, said that the call for the release of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was in the spirit of the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda and  the interest of justice.

The former Abia lawmaker who also called on Nigerians to meditate on the wordings of the new national anthem, also commended the security strategies put in place by the President and his efforts to institutionalize transparency in governance.

Ichita said: “I congratulate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the successful celebration of his first anniversary as President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“It is my prayer that under his leadership, Nigeria will emerge prime investment destination and an indispensable player in the global field.

“I commend the security strategies put in place by the President and for his efforts to institutionalize transparency in governance.

“As Nigeria effects a change in her National Anthem, I urge the government and people of Nigeria to reflect on the wording of the national hymn to build a peaceful and prosperous homeland, where no one is oppressed.

“In the spirit of the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda and the interest of Justice, I appeal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu  to intervene and direct the commencement of processes for the release  of all agitators including Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and to also initiate a program that will culminate in a national dialogue for genuine reconciliation of differences to foster national unity, economic stability and national security.”
