BREAKING; WOSCONET AFRICA Calls for Kanu's Release



A leading women group in Africa, has called upon President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria, to release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The group emphasizes that Kanu has been in protracted detention by the federal government, despite an Appeal Court order for his release.


Nnamdi Kanu, a British-Nigerian political activist, is widely known as the leader of The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), an organization he founded in 2014. He has been advocating for the secession and independence of Biafra from Nigeria.


In a statement made by the group through its Publicity Secretary, Igumbor Faith, in Enugu on Thursday, 23rd June, 2023 addressed the issues compounded by the prolonged detention of Mazi Kanu.


Statement Reads;


"Your Excellency, on behalf of Women Support Women Community Network (WOSCONET), we extend our heartfelt congratulations on your inauguration as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. This historic moment fills us with hope and optimism for a brighter future under your leadership. As a women group in Nigeria, we are particularly thrilled to witness this significant milestone, as it symbolizes the progress we have made in promoting gender equality and women's empowerment. We are confident that your Presidency will further advance our collective efforts in creating a more inclusive society, where the rights and contributions of women are recognized and celebrated"


"Your Excellency, recognizing the significance of family unity and the adverse effects of prolonged separation, the Women Support Women Community Network is appealing to Her Excellency Remy Tinubu, to intercede on behalf of women to seek for the release of Nnamdi Kanu. We hope that Her Excellency can leverage her position and influence to engage with His Excellency, and facilitate the release of Mazi Kanu''


"Your, Excellency, on behalf of WOSCONET, we empathize with the plight of Kanu's family, stressing that his wife and children deeply miss him. The extended absence of a husband and father figure has profound emotional and practical consequences for the family unit"


"Considering his current critical health condition at the DSS detention and the tension it has already generated, WOSCONET firmly believes that the release of Nnamdi Kanu will not only address the concerns of his immediate family but also contribute to fostering an environment of reconciliation and national unity and as well quel the tension and high level of insecurity in the South Eastern Region of Nigeria" especially the sit at home.


"Your  Excellency, we call for a peaceful resolution to the situation, highlighting the importance of dialogue and understanding in addressing the grievances of marginalized regions"


Women Support Women Community Network (WOSCONET) is a powerful and influential women's group dedicated to advocating for gender equality, justice, and fairness in African society. Collaboration and community engagement are fundamental to WOSCONET's approach. The network fosters partnerships with like-minded organizations, government bodies, and individuals to amplify its impact and reach. By working together with diverse stakeholders, WOSCONET creates a united front in the pursuit of social justice.


The plea from the Women Support Women Community Network comes amid mounting pressure from various groups and individuals advocating for Kanu's release. It remains to be seen how the Nigerian government, under President Tinubu's leadership, will respond to these appeals and the Appeal Court order.


Recall that Father Mbaka of Adoration Ministry in Enugu, The President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Chief Iwuanyanwu, The Governor of Anambra and Enugu State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo and Gov. Peter Mbah respectively have called for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, Women Support Women Community Network (WOSCONET) has joined the great Igbo statemen and leaders to become the first women group to make a bold statement and demand for the freedom of the Biafra agitator.


The situation surrounding Nnamdi Kanu's detention continues to be a topic of national and international interest. As events unfold, concerned parties eagerly await a resolution that upholds justice, human rights, and the principles of inclusivity and dialogue.
