Ex-Aide to Buhari Condemns Calls for Nnamdi Kanu's Release - Labels Him a Terrorist Who Must Face Justice

Bashir Ahmad, a former aide to late President Muhammadu Buhari, criticized calls for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), labeling him a terrorist who cannot be pardoned. Ahmad, who witnessed the devastation caused by Boko Haram, expressed strong opposition to pardoning individuals inciting violence and unrest.

He emphasized the destructive impact of Kanu's actions in the Southeast region, leading to loss of lives and destabilization. Ahmad condemned the notion of forgiving terrorists, citing the suffering inflicted on innocent people.

His stance reflects a firm belief in accountability for those who propagate violence and division in the country.
