Governor Alex Otti of Abia State has said his administration was deploying “a different approach” to secure the release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra , Nnamdi Kanu.
The governor said the “different approach” would not be made public until it had yielded the desired results. “I believe in results rather than media hype. We do not want the media noise. We are working very hard to ensure his release,” he said. “My personal position is that the new government does not need to inherit the wrong thing of the previous administration,” Mr Otti said of Mr Kanu’s case with the Nigerian government.Mr Kanu was first arrested in 2015 under the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari.
