So, some people want to intentionally make sure that the country remains ungovernable; uh, there is strife everywhere, but innocent people are killed. If you want to be a leader and you are praying for some people to be killed just because you want to come in, I think that’s a problem somewhere.”
Regarding the potential release of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, he noted that it’s a political decision for the federal government. His primary focus remains on stopping killings and ensuring community security.
“I think the federal government is considering all options, and I think that’s a decision; that’s a political decision; it’s not our own decision. Our own decision is to stop the killing, to ensure that we secure the communities, and that they’re free. People must stop providing necessary support to these individuals. in Maiduguri, where surrendering came up, is that people stopped supporting them, and they were able to come out. So I think the same thing should be repeated here,” he continued.
