‘God has saved your life, show mercy to Kanu, Dasuki’ Governor tells Buhari

Governor Ayo Fayose had earlier on Friday, March 10, 2017, offered prayers for President Buhari’s full recovery.

Fayose also called for the unconditional release of the leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.

According to Daily Post, the Governor said Buhari should show mercy to Kanu and Dasuki, since God has spared his life and shown him mercy.

In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, Fayose said “You have received the mercy and favour of God. You have come back from medical vacation alive. By what people had said and by your own account, it is the mercy and favour of God that have seen you through as well as the prayers of everyone.

“It is incumbent on you to now also show mercy. I advise you to show mercy to Nnamdi Kanu and Sambo Dasuki and such other Nigerians that are suffering unjust, punitive, illegal, and unconstitutional incarceration under your directive or administration.

“Allow all those who have been granted bail by the court to enjoy their bail while their trial continues. This is the right, just, and merciful thing to do. To continue to disdain the court is reckless and unconstitutional. Moreover, it is a sin and it is oppressive.”
