The governor of Anambra State, Prof Charles Soludo, has called for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).<\/div>\n
\nSoludo made the call during a stakeholders\u2019 security and peace building meeting held in Awka.<\/p>\n

He regretted the state of insecurity in Anambra, South East and Nigeria in general, and called for dialogues instead of resorting to violence.<\/p>\n

The Governor said it was time to engage all stakeholders in ensuring peace and progress in the state, adding that \u2018discrimination breeds hatred and violence.\u2019<\/p>\n

The joint security meeting had emphasised the need for justice in the state to reduce acrimony.<\/p>\n

Soludo, while aligning with the stakeholders\u2019 stance, expressed the hope that governors of the South East as well as the larger Nigeria would see reasons for immediate justice for Nnamdi Kanu, adding that \u2018justice delayed is justice denied.\u2019<\/p>\n

The former CBN governor, called for an end to Monday\u2019s sit-at-home in some states of South East. In his view, \u2018Monday\u2019s sit at home is not a way to protest.\u2019<\/p>\n

Recall that IPOB had cancelled the Sit-at-home directive in the entire South-East states.<\/p>\n

Sudo warned that enforcers of the order would be categorised as criminals, and would be treated as such.<\/p>\n

Those that attended the stakeholders\u2019 meeting, held at Professor Dora Akunyili Women\u2019s Development Centre, Awka, included security chiefs, religious leaders, and community leaders.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nThe chairman of Anambra State and South East Traditional Rulers\u2019 Council, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, read the joint statement by the government of Anambra State and the Joint Body of South East Council of Traditional Rulers, Bishops and Archbishops on the State of Insecurity in the Igbo Homesteads.<\/p>\n

According to him, the IPOB had long cancelled the sit-at-home which \u2018has unfortunately become counter-productive.\u2019<\/p>\n

IPOB had on Friday, through its spokesman, Emma Powerful, stated that criminals were enforcing the sit-at-home order as his group had long cancelled it.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
