Prof. Peter Umeadi, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has devised the “optimal approach” to address the matter of Nnamdi Kanu, the beleaguered leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
According to Anaedoonline.ng, Umeadi remarked in a live interview on Channels Television on Thursday that if he wins the presidential election in 2023, a political solution for Kanu will be explored.
Nnamdi Kanu, he claims, will not be released lightly, but granting him amnesty would be sufficient.
2023 Presidency: Peter Umeadi Emerges APGA Presidential Candidate
Last year, Kanu was apprehended in Kenya and deported to Nigeria.
The IPOB leader who is also a British citizen was apprehended and has been held captive and tried by the Nigerian government for treasonable felony against President Muhammadu Buhari and his administration.
Speaking yesterday on the status of the Biafra group leader, Umeadi who was a former Chief Judge of Anambra State, said “I will consider a political solution. When you consider a political solution, you don’t just release him.
“You have to put everything into place, after all, we had the issue of amnesty and you know how much Nigeria spent on amnesty. That’s a political solution. We will fashion something akin to that.”
