ABUJA — Femi Adesina, a presidential spokesman, has questioned why Enyinnaya Abaribe, senate minority leader wasn’t imprisoned when Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) jumped bail.
The senator was one of those who stood as surety for Kanu in 2017 before he was granted bail.
However, Kanu, who was facing charges bordering on treasonable felony, jumped the bail-in 2017.
According to Adesina, the senator stood as surety for Kanu who was bent on dismembering the country.
He made this statement on Friday, in an article entitled, ‘Weighty Matters About Our Country’.
“There is one funny senator who talks about the mismanagement of our diversity as a country, yet he daily uses foul language against those in leadership.
“He stood surety for someone bent on dismemberment of the country, and when that one vanished, he should have been cooling his feet in prison, the senator still spews rubbish.
“Many presidents have said it. Shehu Shagari. Olusegun Obasanjo. Umaru Yar’Adua. Goodluck Jonathan. But here we are today, still just a country with potential.
“But I tell you, under Muhammadu Buhari, those inherent capacities and capabilities are being unearthed, utilized, and we are on our way there. It’s just to stay focused, and we’ll get to our Canaan, flowing with milk and honey,” he said.
