Jubilation erupted in major streets of Enugu metropolis, Thursday, December 17, as the news of the release of detained Director, Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu filtered in.

It was gathered that the celebration was recorded around Ogui Road, New Haven streets in Enugu, as people especially youths were in a frenzy mood just as most relaxation spots were filled to the brim occasioned by his release.

New Leader of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) Uchenna Madu who has been the arrowhead of the struggle for Kanu’s release said that, “the discharge and acquittal of charges against Kanu by Nigerian Government is a triumph over forces of injustice, suppression, oppression and subjection against the oppressed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

“MASSOB’s consistency and uncompromised spirit under me has been vindicated. MASSOB shall continue with IPOB for genuine, committed Biafran non-violent struggle. We salute our comrades in IPOB both at home and diaspora for their unrelenting, courageous efforts, spirit of oneness in pursuing the vision and mission of IPOB.

“Nnamdi Kanu has become the hero of genuine Biafra agitation. Those who earlier opposed Nnamdi will cover their faces in shame. MASSOB hails the committed, eloquent, dedicated Igbo leaders who fearlessly assisted in the release of our brother, Kanu. MASSOB knows them, because we met and appealed to them and they responded. He shall be received in Biafraland as the greatest hero.”

Kanu who is also the director of Radio Biafra and television, was on Saturday, October 17, arrested in Lagos by security operatives, shortly after he arrived Nigeria from his base in the United Kingdom.
