The Ogba monarch who made the calls in his goodwill message to Muslims on the occasion of the 2023 Ei-Eid-Kabir celebration, appealed to President Tinubu to use the spirit of this year’s Big Sallah celebration to release the IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and other separatist agitators in the federal government custody, for the peace and unity of the country.
Oba Nwachuku Nnam Obi III whose message was signed by his media aide, Prince Charles Amadike-Otoboh, JP (Mmboh Krikri) assured Muslim faithful in his domain of their safety and free association, but urged them to always be of good behavior by obeying the customs and traditions of Ogba people and that their members (herdsmen) should stop destroying the people’s farmlands, crops and other properties, to avoid crisis.
The first class traditional ruler also called on government at all levels to and the security agencies to be sincere and holistic in the fight against corruption and security challenges, by being proactive and improve on its intelligence gathering.
In a bold and significant move, the esteemed Oba of Ogba Land, King. Dr. Nwachuku Obuoha Nnam Obi, has called for the immediate release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The Oba, known for his influential role in the region, joins a growing number of voices demanding justice and fairness for the imprisoned activist.
