In a Thursday interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Ubah expressed confidence that through consultations and concerted efforts, there will be a plea for Kanu’s release.
While acknowledging the legal complexities of the matter, Senator Ubah emphasised the need for unity in addressing issues affecting the region.
“I am of the firm belief that if we can consult – with the consultation we have had, the government will start looking in that direction.
“Even though it is something that the government cannot say – based on the issues in court, the government cannot say that they can take a unilateral position. But I believe by the time we join the forces coming into the centre spread, we will make an appeal,” he said.
He emphasised the importance of stability and tranquillity in the region.
“Everybody that wants peace in the South-East should help join or help pray for me and see that my move will bring value to the South-East and bring tranquillity and peace so that people will start going back to the southeast.
“People are no more going: Mondays are being observed as sit-at-home, so many things are involved,” Ubah added.
