Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, stated on Thursday that some visitors who came to see him in custody were not permitted to do so.
Kanu demanded that the clear disobedience be dealt with in the proper way, claiming that it is a violation of the court’s order.
This was revealed on Thursday in a statement signed by IPOB chief lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, who stated that the Department of State Services (DSS) personnel had denied Kanu’s change of clothes for despite several fourth orders.
The statement reads, “We observed our routine visit to our indefatigable Client – Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu today, the 10th Day of February 2022.
“Extensive interaction was held with him on mainly legal issues, as well as other engaging related matters.
“Though, for reasons we were not told, the officials of the DSS rejected for the umpteenth time, the change of clothes brought for him.
“We, however, protested against this obvious violation of court order, and insisted on seeing the Head of the appropriate department to lodge our complaint, but Onyendu advised that we should take up the infractions at the appropriate forum in view of the fact that a positive order of the court was flouted.
“Also, forming part of our demand for explanations is the fact that some other guests that visited Onyendu were not hitherto cleared. Onyendu still insisted that this obvious infraction should be addressed at the appropriate forum because it constitutes a violation of positive order of the court.
“The visit proceeded smoothly and personal notes were taken of Onyendu’s erudite views/contributions towards a successful outing come 16th day of February 2021.
“Onyendu was equally briefed on the level of progress on other matters simultaneously going on in other courts affecting other young Igbo youths still in solitary confinement of the detaining authority, who are yet to be formally arraigned in court. Other details in relation to this brief shall remain private.
“As usual, Onyendu appreciated his ardent supporters who have remained unshaken and resolute even in the face of obvious tribulations and sabotage.
“Please, be reassured that this month is a month of UNCOMMON VICTORY. Do not be distracted by the desperate contrive of the enemies of UMUCHINEKE which is now obviously coming in a different dimension and being orchestrated by moles.”
“It is forward ever and backward never UmuChineke. Onyendu encourages you all to remain peaceful in the conduct of your affairs, and prayerful, particularly in times like this because Victory is no longer far from us.
“Onyendu is fully prepared for the 16th of February’s outing. You all will see him Live and Direct.
“Thank you all Ezigbo UMUCHINEKE and remain richly blessed. I love you all!”
