The Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-cultural organization has stated that the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), will likely reduce the popularity of self-proclaimed Biafra agitator Simon Ekpa and the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Ohanaeze has suggested that Kanu’s release would relegate Ekpa’s activities in the Southeast to the past, essentially making them historical in nature.

The statement reads: “It has come to our attention that certain mischievous Igbo political elites and deviant opportunists are attempting to take undue credit for Nnamdi Kanu’s potential release.JAMB Portal
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo urges President Tinubu not to entertain any visits or demands from these individuals, as the credit for Kanu’s release should solely be attributed to him.
“We emphasise that the effects of Nnamdi Kanu’s release will gradually diminish the rising popularity of both Peter Obi and Simon Ekpa in the Southeast.NYSC Portal
“Additionally, from a security perspective, Ekpa’s disruptive activities and terrorist tendencies in the Southeast will be consigned to the annals of history.”
