Controversial cleric, Rev Fr Ejike Mbaka, has asked Government what impact the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, has had on the country’s security.
He said the man arrested in controversial circumstances outside the country, after he had jumped bail, should be released.
During his Sundar sermon, he noted that he told some government officials to stop Kanu’s incaceration.
He said, “Some persons came to me some time ago that they have two slots for me. I told them I don’t need such offers because I have a slot that I need. They said I should mention what I need.
“My first request was that they should release Nnamdi Kanu because since you people arrested him, we have lost many lives, so of what use is his arrest if after he was arrested, kidnapping hasn’t stopped in the North? Arresting him doesn’t solve the problem.
“Where were the nation’s security agencies when several students were kidnapped?” he asked while urging the government to use the same energy used in arresting Kanu to arrest kidnappers.”
