President Muammadu Buhari has highlighted some of the sins he believes the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, committed against Nigeria.
He said he stayed in Europe and hauled abuse at the country, while also reeling out false economic reports.
Buhari said this on Wednesday during an interview on Channels Television, noting that Kanu had to face justice in court.
He said, “We are giving him an opportunity to defend himself in our system, not to be abusing us from Europe as if he was not a Nigerian. Let him come here with us and then criticise us here. Nigerians know that I don’t interfere with the judiciary, let him be listened to. But those who are saying that he should be released, no, we cannot release him.”
When asked about the possibility for political solution, Buhari said, “There is a possibility of political solution. If people behave themselves, all well and good but you can’t go to a foreign country and keep on sending incorrect economic and security problems (sic) against our country and thinking that you would not account for what you have been doing. Let him (Kanu) account for what he has been doing.”
