Sowore was responding to certain Igbo leaders’ visit to Buhari at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Friday.

According to reports, a delegation led by First Republic legislator and Minister of Aviation, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, met with Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday and begged with him to intervene in Kanu’s case so that he might regain his freedom.

Chief Chukwuemeka Ezeife, a former Governor of Anambra State, Bishop Sunday Onuoha of the Methodist Church, and Barrister Goddy Uwazurike, a former President of the Igbo socio-cultural organisation Aka Ikenga, were among the other members of the visiting delegation.

“Muhammadu Buhari doesn’t comprehend the separation of powers philosophy, and he doesn’t believe in the rule of law, but he has no choice at this point; he must #FreeNnamdiKanuNow!” On his verified Facebook profile, Sowore wrote.
