Nnamdi Kanu: Justice Omotoso Must Be Careful Not To Cause Another Crisis, says Ezenekwe

Press Release 

The Igbos in the Federal Capital Territory [FCT] Abuja are unsettled by the unfolding events at the Nigerian Judiciary over the Maxi Nnamdi Kanu trial.

The decision by Justice Omotoso to give judgement on November 20, 2025 against Nnamdi Kanu will potentially ignite another crisis in Nigeria.

This is because Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has yet to present his defense and it would be unfair to judge a defendant who has yet to present his defense.

It is clear to the people of Nigeria that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was illegally abducted from Kenya and brought to Nigeria and detained for four [4] years for a crime he has not been found guilty for.

President Tinubu must call Justice Omotoso to approach this situation with wisdom and extreme caution. Nigeria cannot be allowed to undergo another unrest amidst a growing anxiety over President Donald Trump’s designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern [CPC].

President Tinubu should listen to the voices of the masses who are calling for a political solution to the Mazi Nnamdi Kanu matter. As a Democrat, it is the most suitable path to follow to reach lasting solution.

Igbo Community in the FCT along with the good people of Nigeria are calling on the President to release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and end the growing quagmire.

The South East and igbo seaking regions of Nigeria need a return to peace. Too many lives and properties have been lost and destroyed. The region needs a return to sanity.

Let us not allow November 20, 2025 to turn to a lightning rod for Nigerians.

Give Nnamdi Kanu Justice and free him.

Together, we can make Nigeria a peaceful place to live in.
