Meanwhile,Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, has called for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and others detained for political reasons. Obi emphasized the importance of respecting court judgments and upholding the rule of law in a democracy. He also advocated for the release of freedom fighters, End Sars protesters, journalists, and others held for exercising their rights to free speech and peaceful protest.
Obi expressed concern about Nigeria’s trajectory towards a failed state due to insecurity, hardship, and government inaction. He emphasized the primary duty of government is to ensure security and tackle poverty, and urged leaders to work together to address these issues.
