The Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Aloy Ejimakor has pleaded with President Bola Tinubu to release the IPOB Leader as he has the constitutional powers to stop any criminal trial in the country.
The legal practitioner made these known in a tweet on Sunday, adding that Tinubu does not have to wait for the Supreme Court to release the IPOB leader.
Ejimakor then urged Tinubu to use the powers vested in him by the constitution to release the IPOB leader, who is being detained by the Department of State Services (DSS).
Ejimakor wrote, “Under the Constitution, the AGF (in practice: the President) has the power to stop any criminal trial.
“So, President Tinubu doesn’t have to wait for the Supreme Court to undo the grave injustice (rendition) done by his predecessor by releasing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu @officialABAT.”
