The President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu has appealed to Nigerian Youths to avoid killings, violence, and wanton destruction of properties across the country.
The appeal followed the failure of the Federal High Court in Abuja to grant Nnamdi Kanu bail on Tuesday, March 19.
Chief Iwuanyanwu observed that millions of Nigerians and youths in the country and in diaspora expected that Nnamdi Kanu would be granted bail having spent over three to four years incarceration in detention.
The Ohaneze Ndigbo President General said, โI wish to appeal to all Nigerian Youths to exercise some patience and avoid any act that would lead to the destruction of life and property.โ
Chief Iwuanyanwu noted that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has made it very clear on many occasions that he will not support any act of arson or bloodshed and wondered why his continued incarceration.
He said that well-meaning Nigerians should put their trust in the divine providence of Almighty God and by his grace Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will be free from incarceration very soon.
“Millions of well-meaning Nigerians across the federation including those in the Diaspora and some notable leaders from Europe, the United States, and the United Kingdom have all wondered why the Nigerian government has continued to torture the young man for some years now whereas those from other parts of the country who have done worst things are walking the streets freely.”
