People of Biafra Worldwide, which owns Radio Biafra on Sunday, wrote
an open letter to world leaders over the plight of its leader, Nnamdi
Kanu, who was arrested yesterday by the Directorate of State Service,
DSS.
In the letter written by one Ifeanyi Chijioke on behalf of the group,
the members said that with the arrest of Kanu, freedom of speech had
received a knock of death.
The letter reads: "The world leaders must stand up to its integrity,
pride, and in defense of the law they made," the group said adding
that the UN chatter on the rights of indigenous people had become
endangered with the arrest of this "leader of indigenous people of
Biafra.
"It's in record that Nnamdi kanu is a law abiding leader who has
disciplined indigenous people of Biafra to strictly abide by local and
international law.
"The gut for his arrest is nothing but slap on the face of United Nations.
"Meanwhile, this is a gross provocation of indigenous people of Biafra
and, as endangered people, would only wait shortly for due process and
immediate release of her leader.
"The world should know that arrest of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is the making
of monster in indigenous people of Biafra and to prevent and save
lives must world leaders stand up to their responsibility.
"Biafrans, as endangered species of terror, genocide, murder and
unlawful detentions, must be sorted or laws will be taken into their
hands.
"Biafrans call on world leaders to prevail on Buhari to with immediate
effect release the leader of the people as he is charged with no
crime.
