iPOB blasts Gov Soludo for attacking Mr Peter Obi over demand for release of MNK 

From Seun Miracle 

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has expressed anger over Gov Charles Soludo vicious attack on Mr. Peter Obi for demanding the immediate and unconditional release of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. 

The Spokesperson, Media and Publicity Secretary for iPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful in a press statement made available to journalists on Monday described Gov Soludo's action as a tragic betrayal, a painful display of naked hypocrisy and desperate political prostitution.

"Let it be known to the world that  on Friday, May 13, 2022 the same Gov Soludo made a high-profile visit to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at the DSS facility in Abuja. He sat with our leader, shook his hands, looked into his eyes, and publicly demanded his release. 

"He went as far as offering to stand as surety for Kanu. As recently as March 2025, Soludo’s own Commissioner for Information, Mr. Law Mefor, boasted that the governor “has been actively working towards Kanu’s release” because he believed it would restore peace in the South-East.

"Today, the same Soludo, through his government, describes Peter Obi’s identical call for justice as “a slap on the Nigerian judiciary” and claims it undermines judicial processes. This is not statesmanship. This is the height of treachery and political chameleonic behaviour.

"Governor Soludo, what suddenly changed? What changed is your blind and shameless ambition to become Vice President in 2031 under a Fulani-led ticket. You have now chosen to sacrifice Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the collective interest of the Igbo nation on the altar of caliphate appeasement. 

"You want to outdo Dave Umahi, Orji Uzor Kalu, Hope Uzodinma, Rochas Okorocha, and Chris Ngige in the hall of fame of Igbo betrayers. But history has already judged them, and it will judge you even more harshly.

"No true son of the soil — no man with authentic Igbo blood flowing in his veins — turns against the freedom of his own brother after riding on that same cause to power. You visited Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in detention when you needed Igbo votes and his moral endorsement to become governor. 

"Now that you occupy the seat, you have shamelessly turned against him and the people who put you there, all in pursuit of crumbs from Abuja. You are not a leader. You are a political weathercock — turning wherever the wind of power blows. A hypocrite of the highest order." iPOB declared.

iPOB noted with dismay that the same judiciary Gov Soludo now defends with fake reverence is the one that has held Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in illegal, dehumanizing detention for years in clear violation of court orders. 

Gov Soludo's latest action according to iPOB is not only a betrayal of the Igbo cause but a direct insult to the memory of great Igbo icons who fearlessly championed the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. 

"It is an insult to the legacy of Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, the revered First Republic Minister who offered refuge to Nelson Mandela at his darkest hour when he fled to Nigeria. It is an insult to the memory of Chief Emmanuel Obiozor, Ambassador George Obiozor, and the entire leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo — men of integrity who stood boldly for justice and the unconditional release of our leader.

"Let it be clear: the demand for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s release is not an Igbo affair alone. IPOB stands shoulder to shoulder with Prophet Ayodele, the respected Yoruba man of God who spoke truth to power just a few days ago, alongside other well-meaning Nigerians from the Hausa North, the Christian Middle Belt, and across the federation who have continued to call for his freedom." Emma Powerful said.

He said as a matter of fact that justice knows no tribe and that only a man chasing personal ambition at the expense of his people would pretend otherwise.

"The Igbo nation has a long memory. We have seen your type before — those who traded collective interest for personal gain and ended up discarded like used tissue paper. Your northern masters will never trust a proven betrayer of his own people," iPOB warned Gov Soludo.
