Maharaji Ji Tells Buhari To Give Kanu, Igboho Chance To Explain Themselves

Sat Guru Maharaj Ji, the founder of One Love Fam­ily, has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to allow the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, and Yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho to explain the reasons behind their an­ti-government actions.

Maharaj Ji, who said he abhors violence against the government, said he would want the government to allow them to explain why they took the action they did against the government so that Nige­ria would be seen as a mature country.

Speaking at an interactive session with the media in La­gos, Maharaj Ji stated: “If you check, since the day I started this missionary service, I have told everybody that violence is not the key.

“I was in the East and I told the elders, ‘You can’t go to war, you need peace’. In the same way, for Kanu to establish a radio station and used it to be attack­ing government is wrong. You don’t attack elders. You should explain. We should give hon­our to whom honor is due.

“For Igboho, I have not heard anywhere that he killed anybody. Government should give them chance to say some­thing. I don’t know more than I have read in the newspapers.

“So, for peace to reign, they should be given a chance to explain, for the world to know that we have matured as a country. Nigeria remains the giant of Africa.”

Maharaj Ji denied that he was arrested by men of DSS after a raid of Igboho’s Soka, Ibadan house, the arrest, say­ing he has been in Lagos for the past two to three weeks.

“I have been in Lagos for almost two weeks now and no DSS has arrested me.”
