The demonstrators, comprising members of Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), chanted pro-Biafra songs and war songs.
While the demonstration lasted, armed security operatives, including the police and the army in trucks, monitored the situation.

A demonstrator, who refused to be named, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the agitation was meant for the federal government to release Kanu unconditionally and allow Biafra people freedom.

He said it was wrong for the federal government and its security agents to arrest Kanu because he supported and believed in the freedom of Biafra people.

He said the members of the group had carried out the demonstration in Enugu, Aba, and Port Harcourt.

“We are in Owerri today and hope to extend this move to other towns within Biafra territory till we achieve our aim,’’ he said.
