In a statement by its spokesperson, Emma Powerful, the IPOB warned that Igbo politicians and elders based in Abuja should not return home, if Kanu is not released.
Powerful said the recent attacks in Abuja show the nation’s seat of power is not safe for Kanu to still be in custody.
Kanu is in the custody of the Department of State Services and he is standing trial for treasonable felony in a federal high court in Abuja.
