Otti says visit to Nnamdi Kanu is about peace not politics

Abia State Governor Alex Otti says his recent visit to detained IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu at the Sokoto Correctional Centre was driven purely by a search for dialogue and peace, not by any future political ambition. He spoke while receiving the Abia Diaspora Commission and Abia Global Medical Mission team in Umuahia, reacting to a viral video accusing him of using the visit to build higher political plans.

The governor restated that he has no intention of contesting any election after completing his tenure. He said that once he finishes […]
