Nigerian activist, Deji Adeyanju has revealed how the federal government arrested IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
The Abuja-based human rights activist while speaking on Wednesday said the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government deceived and arrested Kanu after saying they want to engage him in peace talk.
Reacting to the remark by the United Kingdom, the convener of Concerned Nigerian said the IPOB leader was arrested in an African country where the peace talk was scheduled to hold.
In a tweet, the popular activist said a top ranking official in the government disclosed this to him in confidence.
“Kanu was not arrested in the UK.
“Someone high up in the Govt told me they used a guy, a politician Kanu trusted, to deceive him to come for peace talks and arrested him in one of the African countries.
“You will recall that Buhari even made comments that IPOB should give peace a chance,” Adeyanju wrote.
