Outlawed Igbo separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has again begged the Nigerian government to release its incarcerated leader, Nnamdi Kanu, over his deteriorating health condition so he can travel abroad to get adequate treatment.
The group, in a statement on Saturday by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, raised the alarm following a routine visit to Kanu by his legal team at the detention at the facility of the Department of State Services (DSS) where he has been held since 2021 following his arrest in Kenya.
In the statement, IPOB called for the unconditional release of Kanu based on the orders of the Court of Appeal which had discharged him last year.
