Soludo Offers To Serve As Surety For Nnamdi Kanu

Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to cause the release of the leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to him pledging to serve as his surety.

Soludo made the appeal when the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) presidential candidate Prof Peter Umeadi flagged off his campaign in Awka, Anambra state on Saturday.

While noting that Nnamdi Kanu cannot be in prison while issues relating to insecurity in the Southeast are being discussed, Soludo said:

Soludo said, “We need him around the discussion table, we need him to discuss the future of South East. If the federal government cannot release him unconditionally, I now offer myself to ask the federal government to release him to me.

“I will provide him anytime he is needed. I will house him here in Awka. We need him released to end insecurity in the South East. We need him to have a true conversation about Nigeria, we believe in Nigeria and we are Nigerians,” Soludo said in his pledge on serving as surety for Nnamdi Kanu.

The governor continued, “Some time ago, we set up the Truth and Reconciliation Committee to find out the root cause of insecurity in the South East and they have almost concluded their assignment.

“But this issue of insecurity cannot be well addressed without bringing to the table the key players in this matter. We have applied the kinetic and non-kinetic approach to fighting insecurity in the South East but the non-kinetic approach cannot be complete without the Federal government releasing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

“We must bring him to the table because we need him to be part of this process and I call on the Federal government to release Nnamdi Kanu to me and for us to have a comprehensive discussion for the fate of the South East”

“If we cannot release him based on the court process, I hereby offer myself as the surety for his release and whenever you want him, I will hand him over to you. We shall provide him shelter and give him home and we make this plea in the true belief in the spirit of peace in the South East.”
