In a move that has sparked controversy, renowned Nollywood sensation Yul Edochie has made a fervent plea to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, urging him to release Nnamdi Kanu, the enigmatic leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
For the past two years, Kanu has been confined behind bars following his arrest and subsequent repatriation to Nigeria from Kenya.

The fervent activist’s detention stems from his unwavering commitment to the actualization of Biafra.
Despite court orders mandating Kanu’s release, the Nigerian government has steadfastly held him captive, stoking tensions within the nation.
In a bold statement expressed through his Twitter handle on this eventful Tuesday morning, Edochie implored Tinubu, a revered figure known for his three-decade-long fight for democracy, to exercise his influence and set Kanu free from the clutches of the Department of State Security (DSS).
“To our esteemed Leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, @officialABAT GCFR. The Jagaban,” Edochie tweeted, his words resonating with both admiration and urgency.
“A man whose unwavering dedication has shaped the democratic landscape for three decades—a builder and supporter of men and women.”
“My President, I beseech you, please release Nnamdi Kanu. This humble request comes from your loyal son, Yul Edochie.”
