Businessman and socialite Pascal Chibuike Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has made an appeal to Senate President Godswill Akpabio following a video shared on his social media. In the video, former Imo state governor Rochas Okorocha urged the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). Okorocha expressed that Kanu’s release would help bring peace to the South East, where insecurity has disrupted daily life for years.
Cubana Chief Priest echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that peace and stability in the region could only be restored if Nnamdi Kanu was freed. He pointed out the dire situation in the South East, where many have been unable to return home due to insecurity, leading to loss of lives and property. His call for Kanu’s release is seen as part of a broader request for the federal government to address the ongoing crisis affecting the region.
This public statement by Cubana Chief Priest has sparked reactions, with many supporting the call for peace in the South East while others focus on the political implications of Kanu’s case.
In his words:
“@senator_akpabio Those Plea From Owelle Ndi Igbo Is All We Ask For Our Dear Inlaw, Let OHAMADIKE Ndi Igbo, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Come Back Home Soon, It’s Almost Five Years Now We All Have Not Had Access To Our Home Town, Only His Release Can Restore Peace Back In Our Region. We Have Lost So Much Lives & Properties We Need To Build Back SouthEast ASAP Make Una Help Us.
#FreeNnamdiKanu📌.”
