Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, has revealed that Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), will soon regain his freedom.
The governor made the disclosure while speaking during a monthly media chat at the Government House Banquet Hall in Umuahia.
Governor Otti revealed ongoing discussions with the presidency about Kanu’s continued detention. He, however, shied away from revealing specific details, stressing that sensitive steps are being taken behind the scenes.
The Abia State-born activist has been a vocal advocate for Biafra’s secession and independence from Nigeria. He has remained in prison since his re-arrest in 2021.
