Lotanna Ojukwu, younger brother to the late Biafra warlord,
Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, has suggested ways President Bola Tinubu can end
the sit-at-home and insecurity challenge in the Southeast.
He urged Tinubu to discuss with Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in an attempt to end the insecurity
challenge in the region.
Lotanna said discussing with Kanu would subdue the pressure
of the sit-at-home and insecurity.
Speaking on Arise Television’s Morning Show on Friday,
Lotanna also urged the Federal Government to reach out to the Finnish
government over the activities of Simon Ekpa.
The Finish-based Ekpa has been linked to the aggravated
violence caused by the sit-at-home in the Southeast.
However, Lotanna said: “I appeal to Tinubu to step into this
matter, one-fifth of the country is being held hostage, and people can go to
work and their business. This has affected our economy and the morality of
people who know what is happening.
“This is a terrible shame, the security situation is a
no-hanging fruit to Tinubu, who has proven he is ready to tackle security
issues. This is something he must attend to urgently.
“The people carrying out these atrocities say they want
Nnamdi Kanu released and the court has said he should be released. I will like
Tinubu to talk to Kanu, he should also use diplomatic channels to talk to
Britain and Finland.
“The Federal Government should put diplomatic arrangements
with these two countries to see what can be done to stop Ekpa’s outrageous
comment, because he said releasing Kanu will end the violence.”
