Senators from the Southeast region have held a meeting with the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Prince Lateef Fagbemi,over the release of proscribed leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
The delegation which was headed by Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe representing Abia South, comprised about 15 federal lawmakers.
Senator Abaribe expressed strong believe that the AGF would persuade the Federal Government to release the separatist leader.
He argued that Kanu’s continued detention has aggravated insecurity and agitation in the South East, hindering social and economic activities.
Abaribe also revealed that Kanu, whom he had visited at the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters, is willing to comply with any conditions set by the Federal Government for his release.
Though, this latest move is coming after a recent resolution by all South East governors to appeal directly to President Bola Tinubu for Kanu’s freedom.
