As groups, individuals continue to plead with the Nigerian government to pardon IPOB leader, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Niger State chapter, has equally sent a plea to President Bola Tinubu to grant Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Presidential Amnesty.
President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Niger State Chapter, Chief Emmanuel Ezeugo who made the plea in an interview in Minna, said that President Tinubu’s intervention would go a long way to foster peace in the country.
According to him, the appeal was rooted in the desire for a more united, prosperous nation and the belief that the President, as a father to all, has the constitutional powers to exercise his prerogative of mercy where necessary in the interest of national cohesion.
Ezeugo noted that the call was not to absolve anyone of responsibility but to encourage a path to dialogue, reconciliation, and national unity.
He called on all stakeholders to support efforts that promote peace and national integration in the spirit of national healing, unity, and reconciliation.
Recall that Nnamdi Kanu was convicted by Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court of Nigeria on charges bordering on terrorism and on 20 November 2025 was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Recall also that several prominent Nigerian politicians and other personalities have appealed to President Tinubu to grant him a pardon in the spirit of reconciliation and unity of the country.
