Human rights activist and former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has revealed that former President Goodluck Jonathan has agreed to speak with President Bola Tinubu regarding the continued detention of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
Sowore disclosed this on Friday via his X handle after meeting with Jonathan in Abuja. He said their discussion focused on the “urgent and compelling need” to resolve Kanu’s case fairly and decisively.
“Earlier today in Abuja, I met with former President Goodluck Jonathan to discuss the continued incarceration of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. President Jonathan agreed that there is an urgent and compelling need to address this matter decisively and justly. I thank him sincerely for recognising the importance of resolving Kanu’s case in the interest of peace, fairness, and national healing,” Sowore wrote.
He added that Jonathan assured him he would meet President Tinubu soon to discuss the issue, joining the growing list of prominent Nigerians calling for justice in Kanu’s case.
According to Sowore, others who have spoken up include former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, human rights lawyer Femi Falana (SAN), and former lawmaker Shehu Sani.
Reiterating his call for Kanu’s release, Sowore said the IPOB leader remains in detention “because he took up the just cause of confronting the long-standing issue of marginalisation in Nigeria.”
He also appealed to key political, cultural, and religious figures—including Peter Obi, Chukwuma Soludo, Alex Otti, Hope Uzodinma, Peter Mbah, Oby Ezekwesili, and Ohanaeze Ndigbo President-General John Mbata—to join the campaign for Kanu’s freedom.
Nnamdi Kanu has been in detention since 2021 after being re-arrested abroad and brought back to Nigeria to face charges of terrorism and treasonable felony, despite multiple court rulings ordering his release.

A nicely understated post that does not shout for attention, and a look at steamstraw maintained the same quiet quality, understatement is a stylistic choice that distinguishes serious writing from attention seeking writing and this site has clearly committed to the understated approach as a core editorial value rather than just a phase.
Now thinking about this site as a small example of what good independent writing looks like, and a stop at everydayvaluecorner continued that exemplary status, the few sites that serve as good examples are sites worth holding up in conversations about quality and this one has earned that exemplary placement through patient consistent effort over time.
Glad I gave this a chance instead of bouncing on the headline, and after designyourdirection I was certain I had made the right call, snap judgements based on titles miss a lot of good content and this is a reminder to slow down and check things out before scrolling past in a hurry.
Useful enough to recommend to several people I know who would appreciate it, and a stop at ferncovecraftcollective added more material I will pass along too, the kind of writing that earns word of mouth is the kind that actually delivers on its promises which is what this site does without any drama or fanfare attached.
Now wishing I had found this site sooner, and a look at startbuildingclarity extended that mild regret, the calculation of how many years of good content I missed by not finding the right sources earlier is one I try not to make too often but it does come up sometimes when I find sites this good.
Liked the natural conversational tone throughout, never stiff and never overly casual either, and a stop at ferretiguana kept that comfortable middle ground going, finding a tone that respects the reader without becoming distant or overly familiar is harder than it sounds and this site nails that balance consistently across many different pieces.
