In a post on his Instagram page, Sowore invited prominent figures from the South East, including Peter Obi, Charles Soludo, the governor of Anambra state, Alex Otti, and others, to march with him to Aso Rock and demand the release of the secessionist leader who has been detained since June 2021.
His post says
‘’I will set aside my differences with some politicians for one cause. I challenge every politician or person of good conscience from the Southeast who says they want @mazinnamdikanu released to stop the rhetoric. Time for action is NOW. Let’s march to Aso Rock Villa. Every governor, senator, member of the House, traditional ruler, priest, eze, Igbo person, and every Nigerian who believes in Kanu’s freedom, come out and do more than talk. I will lead this peaceful march to the Aso Rock Villa.
No more empty noise. Let @CCSoludo, @enyinnayaabaribe, @alexottiofr, @peterobigregory and all others who claim to care step up and join us in person.
We go together peacefully, legally, and visibly to demand justice and an end to MNK’s persecution. Chikena! Jisie Ike! #FreeNnamdiKanuNow”
