Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, a member representing Aba South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a listening Leader and expressed hope that he will give heed to the advice of the Attorney General of the Federation and others advising and appealing for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s release.
Abaribe made his feelings known while briefing the media after his meeting with Governor Alex Otti on Sunday evening at his Nvosi county home.
“I expect that the President will listen to both his Attorney General and every one of us who have been agitating that the issues in the South East, first of all, the insurgency, the sit at home on Monday, and every other thing we have noticed in the South East.
“What we now know in the South East, is that criminals and other people who advocate violence have taken over and used the name of Nnamdi Kanu to perpetuate all these despicable acts.
“We know the President, being a listening president, will also look at all the issues which we have presented to him from various mediums, he will do the needful and release Nnamdi Kanu so that it will put a stop to all these things that are happening in the South East as the hub of production in Nigeria.
He equally used the occasion to commend Governor Alex Otti for his good works in the state, adding that the Governor will have no stumbling block to his second term bid.
Senator Abaribe said, “Let me say this, I come from Aba; he has done tremendously well in Infrastructure, the whole infrastructure in Aba. I have driven around, I have seen everything. All I want to do is to continue to encourage him to continue on the path that he has chosen.
“We also agreed that we are going to come around to commission some of the projects that he has done in and around my Senatorial Zone”.
“I think Second Tenure is still very far away but I do not see any stumbling block on the way if we go by what he has done at this point”, Senator Abaribe declared.
