The immediate past chairman of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Victor Umeh has severely decried the traitorous actions of the National Assembly Members from the south-east geopolitical zone for their silence in spite of the flagrant abuse of powers by the Department of State Security over the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, (IPOB)
It would be recalled that embattled Kanu Nnamdi had before now been granted unconditional release by an Abuja magistrate court which the Nigeria's secret police flouted and continued to hold him in detention.
Wednesday, December 23 the Federal Government in a bizarre manner slammed a fresh 6-count charge of violent felonies against Nnamdi Kanu, a move that has sparked off outrage against the Nigerian government by the international community.
Chief Victor Umeh reportedly berated the silence of NASS members of eastern extraction for turning traitor added that they should have prevailed on the Federal Government to obey court orders and release the detainee in question instead of remaining silent. This amounted to being on the side of the oppressor who has consistently violated court orders while the agitation escalates.
He urged NASS member of south-east origin to intervene now without further delay to effect Nnamdi Kanu's release from detention in order to return peace to the region.
