Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has denied claims that he discussed the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), with South East governors during their meeting in Enugu on Tuesday.
In a statement by Kehinde Akinyemi, the Special Assistant on Media to Obasanjo, the meeting was focused on regional development issues, including security, infrastructure, economy, and cooperation.
“The meeting with them was at my invitation and of Chief Emeka Anyaoku before their summit begins. The issue of Nnamdi Kanu was not on the agenda and was not discussed in my presence,” Obasanjo said.
