Mahdi Shehu Reveals Political Motives Behind Tinubu's Interest in Ekweremadu's UK Prison Case
Social critic and activist Mahdi Shehu disclosed that Bola Ahmed Tinubu's recent interest in securing the release of Ekweremadu from a UK prison is politically motivated, possibly linked to the 2023 and 2027 general elections. Shehu criticized Tinubu's actions as a strategic move to gain support from the Igbo community.
Shehu suggested exploring a prison transfer agreement between Nigeria and the UK as a viable option. Tinubu's establishment of a high-power committee to engage with the UK government on Ekweremadu's case is seen as a political maneuver rather than a genuine concern for justice.
