Kenya High Commissioner to Nigeria, Ambassador (Dr.) Wilfred Machage has said that the arrest and extradition of the self-claimed leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, from his country to Nigeria were not to the knowledge of the government.
Machage who spoke in Abuja on Friday denied the involvement of the Kenya government in the arrest of Kanu, saying “it does not want to be dragged into Nigeria’s internal affairs.
“The Government of Kenya is particularly appalled by the spurious, derogatory and libellous mention of the name of our dear President on this matter as has been reported.
“I wish to categorically state that we are not happy at this ridiculous attempt of dragging the name of Kenya and President Uhuru Kenyatta on this matter of arrest and extradition of the self-claimed IPOB leader.”
