I would have expected him, based on what we know about him, to say: ‘Look let us go to court.'”
In a separate development, senators from the South-East have appealed to President Bola Tinubu to order the release of Kanu. Led by Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, the lawmakers argued that the social and economic activities in the South-East region would remain stagnant unless Kanu is freed.
The senators recently met with the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, to deliver their letter to President Tinubu regarding Kanu’s release.
Kanu was re-arrested in Kenya in mid-2021 by the Federal Government and brought back to the country to face terrorism charges.
Although he pleaded not guilty, Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court in Abuja denied him bail due to his previous bail jump, in which Senator Abaribe had acted as his surety. Kanu has been in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) since then.
