A socio-political group, Abia North Peace Foundation, ANPF, has applauded the Chief Whip of the Nigerian Senate, Sen. Orji Uzor Kalu for visiting the detained leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at DSS facility in Abuja, saying former Abia governor has demonstrated leadership.
According to the group, Sen. Kalu, representing Abia North Senatorial district has continued to champion the cause of Ndigbo globally.
IGBERE TV had on Monday brought you a report that the federal lawmaker visited the embattled secessionist leader in detention where he counseled him to reconsider some actions and utterances in the interest of the people.
According to Sen. Kalu, even though he may hold a different ideology from that of Nnamdi Kanu, he owes the IPOB leader a good counseling.
Reacting to the visit on Tuesday in a press statement, the National Director of Media and Publicity of Abia North Peace Foundation, ANPF, Precious Kalu expressed gratitude to Senator Kalu for his exceptional fatherly role to Ndigbo in particular and Nigeria at large.
He said, “Abia North Peace Foundation, ANPF, specifically acknowledged the exemplary, unique and selfless style of leadership strides you displayed while discharging your duty as a Senator. Your recent visit to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is highly commendable.
“We understand that the visit is about your passion for the progress of Ndigbo and Nigeria at large. We haven’t forgotten how you fought third term agenda with everything at your disposal. It is still in our memories how you reconciled prominent Igbo leaders like Dim Chukwuemeka Odiegwu Ojukwu and former Vice President Alex Ekwueme.
“It is the same you that reconciled President Muhammadu Buhari and former Military President, Ibrahim Babangida. You’re a progressive and detribalised Nigerian who is committed to peace and progress. We appreciate and commend your contributions to the peace and unity of Nigeria.”
