According to IPOB’s DOS, “Firstly and clarity’s sake, the lead counsel to Nnamdi Kanu in the matter instituted against him by the Nigerian government which matter is now before the Nigerian Supreme Court is Barrister Mike Ozekhome, SAN assisted by Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor and others . Any matter therefore concerning Maazi Nnamdi Kanu while still being detained at the facility of the DSS, whether such issues pertain to his health or otherwise must be brought to the knowledge and attention of the lead counsel.

Edoziem said IPOB cannot longer tolerate moves by anyone to endanger the life of Nnamdi Kanu.

He called on Emmanuel Kanu, Nnamdi Kanu’s younger and Barr Alloy Ejimakor to retrace their steps and desist from visiting the IPOB leader in DSS custody henceforth.

“Emmanuel Kanu, Barrister Alloy Ejimakor and others who are known to us should be held responsible if anything happens to Maazi Nnamdi Kanu, “Edoziem said.

BACKGROUND

On Wednesday Vanguard reported that Aloy Ejimakor, Special Counsel to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu said the Department of State Services (DSS) did not allow the medical team to see his client.

On Tuesday, Vanguard reported that Kanu’s medical team arrived at the DSS headquarters in Abuja to give proper care to the IPOB leader.

Hours later, Kanu’s brother alleged that the self-determination group leader was not allowed to see his doctors, as they were asked to leave the medical facility on Tuesday.

Confirming the development, Ejimakor, via a Twitter post, confirmed on Wednesday that Kanu did not receive medical attention from his doctors.

“After going through so much trouble to advance the cause of arranging proper medical care for Onyendu #MNK, the DSS made sure it didn’t happen. This will not stand. Onyendu must get the proper medical care that he needs from physicians of his own choice,” Ejimakor wrote.
