Igboho spoke in a video released on Monday, releasing Nnamdi Kanu will allow him to attend to his failing health.
Igboho emphasized that the IPOB leader is fighting for the Southeast, just as he himself is fighting for the interests of the Southwest. They share a common goal of advocating for their respective regions.
Igboho said: “Please release Nnamdi Kanu, stop politics. This guy did not do anything. Today is February 26, 2024.
“Release him, let him go and stay with his family. This guy is just fighting for his people in the South East like me that I am fighting for my people in Yorubaland, release him, let him go. Release Kanu. Please release him.”

Recall that Nnamdi Kanu’s trial resumed today Monday 26th February in a Federal High Court, Abuja.
However, the court fixed March 19 for ruling on the bail application filed by Kanu.
Justice Binta Nyako will, also on the same date, rule on a notice of preliminary objection filed by Kanu praying the court not to allow his trial until certain conditions were met by the Federal Government.
Justice Nyako fixed the date after the new counsel for the Federal Government, Adegboyega Awomolo, SAN, and Kanu’s lawyer, Alloy Ejimakor, adopted their processes and presented their arguments for and against the motions.
