Soludo Actively Working Towards Nnamdi Kanu’s Release – Anambra Govt
In setting the record straight, Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State has affirmed that the misinformation on his reluctance to support the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was wrongly orchestrated.
These erroneous views about Governor Soludo on Kanu’s release from detention are perceived to have been peddled by desperate opposition politicians intimidated by Soludo’s impressive achievements in his infrastructural and transformational development of the state.
In a release by the State’s Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, Governor Soludo has surpassed his campaign promises in less than three years, surprising critics.
Contrary to the false claims, Governor Soludo has been actively working towards Nnamdi Kanu’s release, with an administrative bail he initiated, as he hopes it will help restore peace and stability in the South East.
He is deeply concerned about the hijacking of the Biafra agitation by criminals, as they have turned it into a lucrative enterprise, engaging in kidnapping, robbery, ritual killings, and other heinous crimes for ransom.
To address the security concerns in the South East and particularly Anambra, Governor Soludo’s administration is set to launch “Operation Udo Ga-Achi” (Operation Peace Shall Reign) in January to combat criminal activities for a safer state.
The governor’s fear that the criminal elements who have turned the Biafra agitation into a criminal enterprise may not listen to Kanu is a legitimate concern shared by well-meaning people.
It was gathered that Soludo was the first to lead some Igbo leaders to visit Nnamdi Kanu in Kuje prison in 2017 and call for his unconditional release.
