Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, has emphasized that no one should plead for his client’s release, asserting that Kanu has committed no crime and must be freed based on legal rulings rather than clemency.
“Kanu is adamant that nobody should plead or beg anybody on his behalf because he has committed no crime,” Ejimakor stated in a statement titled “Upholding the Rule of Law Is More Important to Me Than Anything Else.”
Ejimakor highlighted that Kanu’s continued detention violates court rulings. “The matter of releasing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is not an act of mercy, pardon, executive clemency, or even amnesty. Instead, it should be an act of simply complying with the subsisting Federal High Court judgment that declared his detention unconstitutional,” he added.
