A South-East Nigerian traditional ruler has publicly urged President Bola Tinubu to either release detained Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Nnamdi Kanu or return him to Kenya, where he was previously based before his rendition to Nigeria. The appeal comes amid renewed media attention on Kanu’s detention conditions, including reports of his possible transfer to or confinement in Sokoto prison, and ongoing commentary comparing his case with that of Yoruba activist Sunday Igboho. The issue matters because it underscores persistent regional and separatist tensions in Nigeria’s South-East and tests Tinubu’s approach to high-profile security and political detainees.
