Okorie Urges Igbo Community In Sokoto To Provide Succour For Kanu

Founding National Chairman of All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Chekwas Okorie, has appealed to the Igbo community in Sokoto to provide all the necessary succour for the convicted and jailed leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, that the Nigerian authorities will allow.

Okorie, who is currently the convener and National chairman of the Igbo Agenda dialogue, said that in view of his health condition, he should be provided with the meals prescribed by his doctors.

Okorie, however, appealed to the angry youths in the name of God not to fall for the script of believing that their dilemma is from within.

“We must not turn the sod or the barrel of the gun against ourselves. This time calls for Igbo unity, wisdom, and prayers.

“I  earnestly urge and appeal to the Igbo community in Sokoto State to immediately rise to the Igbo spirit of onye aghala nwanneya (Be your brother’s keeper) and quickly organise to provide our son Mazi Nnamdi Kanu all the necessary succour and comfort the Nigerian authorities will allow.”

“In view of his health condition, he should be provided with the meals prescribed by his doctors.

“He must not be lonely during his visiting days. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is the symbol of the Igbo dilemma in Nigeria. He is carrying the Igbo cross at this time.” He stated.
