President Muhammadu Buhari has said many people below the age of 50 years old are confused already in Nigeria.

President Muhammadu Buhari made the remark yesterday at State House, Abuja while responding to the demands of Highly Respected Igbo Greats, a group led by First Republic parliamentarian and Former Minister of Aviation, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi.

The group of Igbo men had asked President Muhammadu Buhari to release the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in order to restore economic and political stability in the southearn part of the country.

President Muhammadu Buhari who responded that he will consider the request of the 93 years old First Republic parliamentarian and former Minister of Aviation, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, said that a lot of people half the age of the elder stateman are confused already.

“A lot of people half your age are confused already. But the demand you made is heavy. I will consider it

“You’ve made an extremely difficult demand on me as leader of this country. The implication of your request is very serious. In the last six years, since I became President, nobody would say I have confronted or interfered in the work of the Judiciary. God has spared you, and given you a clear head at this age, with very sharp memory”, President Muhammadu Buhari said.

Other parts of the news release made available by the President Spokesperson, Femi Adesina reads:

An unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), currently standing trial, runs contrary to the doctrine of separation of powers between the Executive and Judiciary, President Muhammadu Buhari has said

Stressing his policy of non-interference with the Judiciary, President Buhari said when Kanu jumped bail, got arrested and brought back to the country, “I said the best thing was to subject him to the system. Let him make his case in court, instead of giving very negative impressions of the country from outside. I feel it’s even a favour to give him that opportunity.”

The President condoled with Chief Amaechi, who recently buried his wife, praying that her soul would rest in peace.

The nonagenarian had described the situation in the Southeast as “painful and pathetic,” lamenting that businesses have collapsed, education is crumbling, and there is fear everywhere.

He pleaded for a political, rather than military solution, requesting that if Kanu was released to him as the only First Republic Minister still alive, “he would no longer say the things he had been saying,” stressing that he could control him, “not because I have anything to do with them (IPOB), but I am highly respected in Igbo land today.”

Chief Amaechi said twice he had interfaced with Nnamdi Kanu in the past, and the latter rescinded orders earlier given on civil disobedience.

He concluded: “I don’t want to leave this planet without peace returning to my country. I believe in one big, united Nigeria, a force in Africa. Mr President, I want you to be remembered as a person who saw Nigeria burning, and you quenched the fire.”

Other people in the visiting delegation were; His Excellency Chukwuemeka Ezeife, former Governor of Anambra State, Bishop Sunday Onuoha of the Methodist Church, Chief Barrister Goddy Uwazurike, former President of Igbo socio-cultural group, Aka Ikenga, and Mr Tagbo Mbazulike Amaechi.
