FAMILY SAYS DSS IS PREVENTING NNAMDI KANU FROM SEEING GUESTS

Babatunji Wusu –

The Department of State Services (DSS) has once again been accused by the family of Nnamdi Kanu, the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), of preventing him from receiving visits.
According to the family, Kanu is kept from receiving visitors in order to keep them in the dark about “his deteriorating health condition.”

Twice a week, the DSS was mandated by the Abuja High Court to grant him access to his attorneys and family.

Speaking with Vanguard, the younger brother of IPOB leader Emmanuel Kanu claimed that none of the people that came to meet him on Thursday were permitted to do so.

He questioned the DSS’s decision to abruptly bar Kanu from seeing his guests, calling it “a flagrant violation of court order.”

According to the family, this kind of behavior suggested that the secret police were hiding something.

He declared, “DSS is preventing my brother’s visitors from visiting him, which is another egregious violation of an ongoing court order and their attempt to hide my brother’s rapidly declining health.

“In my opinion, DSS has evolved into a private security firm that is run by the authority like a family business. I don’t know why my brother is still being held against court orders at this time.

The leader of IPOB, who was kidnapped in Kenya and then extraordinary extradited to Nigeria in June 2021, has been detained in solitary confinement at the Abuja DSS headquarters.

The IPOB Leader’s immediate and unconditional release was ordered by the Appeal Court of Abuja, but the Federal Government has refused to grant it.
The Federal Government had filed 15 accusations of treason against him, but the Appeal Court had dismissed them all.
