The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has said that no Igbo leader will pity the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra over his arrest by the Federal Government.
The pan-Igbo organisation said Kanu had refused all counsel given him and had caused a lot of violence in the polity.
In a statement by Okechukwu Isiguzoro, its Secretary-General, it said: “Nnamdi Kanu’s refusal to adhere to the advice of Igbo leaders, elders, and political leaders is the outcome of what has befallen him. He made a lot of enemies especially those that would have saved him and Federal Government will never lose grip on him again.
“We don’t think that any Igbo leader will stick out his/her neck for him, his re-arrest will eventually bring peace and stability to the region and averted another civil war that was raging on.
“” But the Federal Government should handle the situation carefully because his large followers of IPOB wouldn’t resort to violent revolt, his trial should be strictly based on the laws of the land, they shouldn’t kill him because it will destabilise the entire country.”
