OHANAEZE: WE'LL PRESENT EVIDENCE TO CHARGE SIMON EKPA WITH TERRORISM

Ohanaeze Ndigbo 

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-political organization has threatened to offer Simon Ekpa, a pro-Biafra activist, terrorism evidence.

Ohanaeze claimed that releasing proof against Ekpa will act as a deterrent to those preparing violent unrest in the Southeast.

The arrest of Ekpa, according to the Ohanaeze Secretary-General Okechukwu Isiguzoro, won't have an impact on Nnamdi Kanu's case.

Ekpa had been taken into custody by Finish authorities at his Lahti flat.

After being supposedly detained by the police for a suspected offense, he was later freed.

Ekpa's release on Thursday has now been officially announced by the Finnish Central Criminal Police.

Ekpa's detention, according to the police, was related to the current preliminary inquiry.

Isiguzoro, however, stated: "Ohanaeze Ndigbo will be happy to help the Federal Government to provide all necessary evidence of terrorism that will help prosecute Ekpa.

"Nnamdi Kanu never openly admitted that he was responsible for the killings in the Southeast, but Ekpa has openly admitted that he is the one funding the killings in the Southeast.

"Kanu's case is different, Ekpa's case is different. Ekpa's case is different because he was arrested by the Finnish authorities, while Kanu was arrested in Kenya.

"His arrest will not affect Nnamdi Kanu or complicate his matter because the IPOB leader was illegally kidnapped in Kenya but Ekpa is the founder of terrorism in the Southeast and there are a lot of evidence to this fact.

"Ohanaeze will provide evidence in Ekpa's prosecution that would serve as a deterrent to others who want to go into violent agitations."
