In a letter conveyed by his brother, Prince Emmanuel, following a meeting at the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters, Kanu was quoted expressing openness to a “genuine restructuring” of Nigeria, aligning with the principles of the 1963 Constitution.
Kanu emphasized that those resisting comprehensive restructuring should reconsider their stance. His letter stated:
“We are not averse to the genuine restructuring of the country. We know that the country cannot grow or make progress under the current unworking unitary structure. The facts are clear for all to see.
“Our position remains the same as our submission in the presence of Prof. Ben Nwabueze, and Evangelist Elliot Ugochukwu-Uko on 30th August 2017 at the meeting with the South East Governors in Enugu. We have no reason to add or subtract from our position six years ago.
“We reiterate that we are not opposed to a consensual but wholesome restructuring of the country along the 1963 constitution.”
