The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has advised Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, to beg the Nigerian government to secure his freedom.

Primate Ayodele warned that the embattled IPOB leader would die in detention if he refused to beg the Nigerian government for his freedom.

Ayodele gave the advice during the launch of his 30th “Warning to the Nations” at his church in Lagos on Saturday.

Recall that Kanu is currently locked up by the Department of State Services, DSS, on the orders of the Nigerian government.

This is coming when Southeast governors and senators had agreed to meet President Bola Tinubu to seek a political solution to Kanu’s continued detention.

The Federal Government says it will file a lawsuit against the Daily Trust newspaper over its report on signing of the Samoa agreement.

The agreement, which has some clauses that compel underdeveloped and developing nations to support the agitations by the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community for recognition, as a condition for getting financial and other support from advanced societies, has sparked a chain of reactions.

Daily Trust reports that some clerics, rights activists, and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) in Nigeria are furious over the decision of the federal government to sign the controversial agreement.

Named after the Pacific Island Samoa, where it was signed, the agreement has gained traction.
