Nnamdi Kanu with his lawyers in court on November 10th, 2021
Family members and Legal team of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, were today alleged to have been denied by the Department of State Services, DSS, from having access to him.
Special counsel to Kanu, Aloy Ejimakor disclosed this to the world via his Twitter page on Thursday.
Ejimakor accused the Nigeria government of using the DSS to disobey court orders by refusing them access to Kanu in detention.
Ejimakor tweeted, “Three times in a row, the Government of Nigeria (via DSS) blocks court-ordered access to Onyendu Nnamdi Kanu on the same excuses. We were here in strength – My humble self, Ozekhome, Ejiofor & Prince Emma. This crass tyranny will live in infamy & harden a lot of hearts.”
Speaking to Newsmen in Owerri, lead counsel to the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Ifeanyi Ejiofor said that the DSS asked them to come back next week Monday because the officials that would conduct the visit were not available, Vanguard Reports.
“We were all disappointed by this ugly trend, but we will be visiting again on Monday. There is no going back nor relenting because it is forward ever and backwards never. It is to be noted, with utter dismay, that the present Administration has drifted to an unfortunate era where l Orders issued by Courts of competent jurisdiction are treated with contempt, and with grave impunity by institutions whose primary mandate is to promote the Rule of Law,” IPOB said.
