Atiku's Spokesman Defends Stance on Nnamdi Kanu Case Amid Criticism
Paul Ibe, the spokesman for President Atiku Abubakar, defended Atiku's consistent stance on the Nnamdi Kanu case since 2023. Ibe responded to criticism, including from Hon Amb Samuel Danjuma, who found Atiku's support for Kanu disappointing.
Danjuma accused Atiku of inconsistency and political convenience, emphasizing Kanu's detention as a matter of political persecution and national security. Atiku had called for Kanu's release in 2024, aligning with Omoyele Sowore's demand for political resolution.
The debate highlighted the complexities of supporting Kanu, facing charges of treasonable felony, within the context of national security concerns.
