Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has backed the call the Imam of Peace.
NewsOne Nigeria reports that the Muslim influencer and reformist Imam, Mohammad Tawhidi, popularly known as Imam of Peace, had called for the immediate arrest of Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari.
The Imam of Peace demanded Buhari’s arrest on the micro-blogging site, Twitter, where he listed several reasons the Commander in Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria should be arrested including the decision of the Nigerian government under President Buhari to free thousands of “repentant Boko Haram terrorists” into the society as well as the “corruption” rocking the “Next Level” administration of President Buhari.
Before now, the Presidency faulted the call by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for President Buhari to resign. The National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, on Friday called on President Buhari to resign from office, citing prevailing corruption in federal agencies and insecurity across the nation.
The Presidency through the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, while reacting to the call in a statement on Friday night, said the President would not heed such call. to resign as demanded by the PDP
The Presidency said the call by the PDP chairman was a mere camouflage of the PDP’s fear the various probes initiated by the Buhari administration, which had led to the uncovering of the many cases of corruption, would expose characters within the opposition further.
“President Buhari will not resign. He is determined to continue the crusade against corruption, both legacy and recently unearthed cases, that are found to be shabbily handled, and in some cases unattended to by past administrations,” the Presidency said.

“Buhari freeing thousands of Boko Haram terrorists because they “repented” is treason. They have killed thousands since then, and he is responsible.
“He shouldn’t resign. He should be arrested and dragged into the back of a police van and locked up. This corrupt person freed thousands of Boko Haram Terrorist because they “repented.” They’re now massacring Christians.”
Imam of Peace further that President Buhari should be: “Charged for corruption should be the last thing he worries about. Buhari should he charged for collaborating with the Fulani CULT and striking a deal to free thousands of Boko Haram Jihadists who have killed thousands this year alone!”
