However, Lai Muhammad has urged all citizens of Nigeria to disregard such accusation as it was a fake news.

Lai Muhammad said that the reemergence of Kanu has only proven to the world that the Nigeria Federal Government has no hand in Kanu whereabout.

Lai Muhammad said “I was in London when I heard the story about Nnamdi Kanu surfacing in Israel. I was not in a position to make any statement. But before I knew it, within a few hours, I saw my picture with a story saying that I had actually given Israel an ultimatum to return Nnamdi Kanu otherwise, we will send them missiles.

“I just laughed. It speaks to what we are talking about the fake news because it is probably the biggest threat in the run-up to the elections. Having said that, I have nothing more to add to the issue of Nnamdi Kanu. At the appropriate time, the various authorities will make a statement about the issue of Kanu.

“But this has proven that all along when Kanu disappeared and the mob was asking the Nigerian army to account for the whereabouts of Kanu; I kept saying that Kanu knows where he is. He was not in the custody of the Federal Government. We have been vindicated today. Any other statement will be made in due course.”

Meanwhile, Lai Muhammad has advised all Nigeria to ignore Nnamdi Kanu because he is a political distraction that needs to be neglected.
