Igbos should stop being emotional over Nnamdi Kanu’s conviction – Orji Kalu
Orji Kalu, senator representing Abia north, says separatist agitations linked to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), have claimed more than 30,000 lives and ruined livelihoods across the south-east.
The former Abia governor’s remarks came after a federal high court in Abuja sentenced the IPOB leader to life imprisonment last week.
Speaking on ‘Sunday Politics’, a Channels Television programme, Kalu said the focus on security casualties has overshadowed the scale of civilian deaths and economic losses recorded in the region.
He asked political actors and supporters to avoid escalating tensions and instead pursue a political solution to the crisis.(The Cable)
