Sowore’s statement came after Ahmad cautioned those advocating for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
Omoyele Sowore, former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, has slammed Bashir Ahmad, an ex-aide to former President Muhammadu Buhari.
This comes after Ahmad cautioned those advocating for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
Reacting, Sowore said Ahmad's comment represents a tendency that assume Nigeria is their private real estate.
Recall that the ex-aide to Buhari had described those advocating for Kanu’s release as enemies of Nigeria.
However, in a post on his X handle on Monday, Sowore said Kanu is being held hostage by feudal characters, adding that he stands no chance of getting “justice” in a court of law.
He said: “This fellow @BashirAhmaad is speaking the mind of his benefactors; when @Mbuhari was in power @MaziNnamdikanu was one of the reasons he would get openly aggressive and upset.
“Truth is that @BashirAhmaad just didn’t wake up to make this egregious statement he represents a tendency in Nigeria and they assume Nigeria is their private real estate, and only they determine what could happen inside it. It is the reason why I have consistently stated that @MaziNnamdiKanu is being held hostage by these feudal characters, he stands no chance of getting “justice” in a court of law, and court cases are just a charade meant to create an impression that he’s in indefinite detention as a result of these bogeys they label as charges. #FreeNnamdiKanuNOW”
