In a press statement released and signed by its Chairman, National Advisory Committee, Major General Collins R. U Ihekire, retired, UNIEC declared that the immediate and unconditional release of Kanu will be both a constitutional duty and a moral decision.
According to Collins R. U, Nnamdi Kanu’s freedom is key to restoring justice, unity and peace in Nigeria, and Justice James Omotosho’s courtroom cannot be a miracle centre where dead laws will be resurrected.
He stated that once repealed, the 2913 Act ceased to exist; therefore, all charges under it immediately died a natural death.
