What Might Happen If I Am Not Released Before Buhari Hands Over Power – Nnamdi Kanu

The embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has called on the British Government to get him released from detention before President Muhammadu Buhari leaves office in May.

A source who spoke with the Vanguard claimed that the IPOB leader expressed fear that if he was not released before the expiration of the tenure of the Buhari administration, which incarcerated him, it might take a fresh round of legal battles to free him under a new administration.

Speaking to a British diplomat, Heather Wilkie, who visited him in the Department of State Service (DSS) custody, Kanu lamented that the UK government was not doing enough to help him.

He pleaded with the UK government to prevail on Nigeria to free him before the Buhari government leaves office in May this year.

Kanu is said to have complained to the UK diplomat that despite the regular visits paid to him by the representatives of the government, that country had not done enough to secure his release as a British citizen.
