Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has reacted as Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), issued an appeal for calm and peace in “Biafraland” following the refusal of his most recent bail application.
Recall that Justice Nyako postponed the pro-Biafra activist’s case to November 14, 2022, awaiting the Appeal Court’s ruling.
This comes after the Biafra activist submitted a new application requesting his release on bail while the Federal Government’s treasonable felony charge against him is being resolved. However, the petition was dropped on Tuesday at the hearing.
