Governor Alex Otti of Abia State on Tuesday evening visited President Bola Tinubu at the State House Abuja.
Although details of their meeting are sketchy, it might not be unconnected with the imprisoned leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.
Governor Otti had recently visited Kanu at the Sokoto prison, where the IPOB leader is serving his sentence. He was accompanied by Kanu’s younger brother, Emmanuel Kanu; the Abia State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Ikechukwu Uwanna (SAN); and his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ferdinand Ekeoma.
He has also affirmed his commitment to pursuing all legitimate avenues to secure Kanu’s release.
Tuesday’s visit to President Tinubu is widely interpreted as part of Otti’s ongoing political and legal strategy, aimed at advancing dialogue and exploring possible solutions at the federal level.
