Following the arrest of the Senator representing Abia South, Senator Enyinaya Abaribe by the Department of State Services, DSS, the Biafra Nations Youth League (BNYL), have challenged the federal government to disclose the charge levied against Abaribe that warranted his arrest.

Reacting, National Leader of BNYL, Princewill Chimezie Richard linked his arrest to his failure to produce the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.

"Although, it has not been disclosed why the DSS got him arrested, but we cannot claim that we don't know it was because of his involvement in the release Mr Nnamdi Kanu from prison being a surety.

But what the Buhari government failed to know and do not care to know is that the embattled Senator does not have the capacity to produce Kanu or determine his whereabouts, the Chief of Army Staff have questions to answer over the illegal invasion of Umuahia, Kanu's home and his disappearance, and the President himself is not above the law, there are countries that their laws permit arrests of incumbents Presidents".

BNYL warned of the daring consequences of detaining the Senator from the South East, he thus called for his immediate release.

“People can see why we are demanding for Biafra, Nigeria does not allow apposition which is part of democracy, this is a big blow to the Igbo people and entire Biafra populace and we won’t tolerate it,” he said.
