Activist Deji Adeyanju has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to free Nigerian separatist leaders, Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho.
He also demanded that bandits troubling the northern region of Nigeria should be delivered the same severe treatment the Buhari administration is giving Kanu and Igboho.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Igboho, who is still being detained in Republic of Benin, is linked to a Boko Haram sponsor convicted in the United Arab Emirate (UAE).
Igboho escalated his agitation for an independent Yoruba nation following incessant cases of kidnapping allegedly attributable to Fulani herders in Oyo State and other parts of South-west states earlier this year.
He was to fly to Germany with his wife when he was arrested at an airport in Republic of Benin in July.
On the other hand, Kanu has been produced from custody for re-arraignment at the Federal High Court in Abuja on treasonable felony and terrorism-related charges. He leads an outlawed movement, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), a group agitating for the sovereignty of Eastern Nigeria.
“Free Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho now. Not one bandit has been arrested or is on trial anywhere in Nigeria,” Adeyanju wrote on his verified Facebook page on Monday.
