WIC lends support to Kanu’s legal team, Aug 31 rally

The Board of Directors of World Igbo Congress (WIC) has authorised immediate legal support to Nnamdi Kanu’s legal team, while urging Igbo political elite to eschew political gratification and defend the right of Igbo citizens.

In statement yesterday by its Public Relations Officer (PRO), Basil Onwukwe, WIC decried the seeming leadership vacuum in Igboland where armed security agents could kill innocent Igbo youths without facing any consequences.

It also lends support to the peaceful really billed for next Tuesday.

It described government’s disruption of peaceful demonstrations – a universal means of demanding a change in unpopular government policy – as unacceptable.
