Please release Nnamdi Kanu – Yul Edochie begs Tinubu

Yul Edochie, a controversial Nollywood actor, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to release Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, or IPOB.

Kanu has been imprisoned since he was apprehended and returned to Nigeria from Kenya two years ago.

The IPOB leader was apprehended because of his advocacy for Biafra’s independence.

Despite court orders, the Nigerian government has refused to release Kanu.

In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Tuesday morning, Edochie pleaded with Tinubu, who he described as a man who fought for democracy for three decades, to set Kanu free from the Department of State Security (DSS) custody.

“To our Leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, @officialABAT GCFR. The Jagaban,” Edochie tweeted.

“A man who has fought for democracy for 3 decades, A builder & supporter of men & women.

“My President, please release Nnamdi Kanu. A humble request from your son, Yul Edochie.”
