Ozekhome expressed fears that Kanu may die in custody if not granted bail to allow him access to medical treatment for his ailing health.
He made the argument during the hearing at the Supreme Court on Thursday, May 11, 2023, where he disclosed that the IPOB leader’s health issues have deteriorated to the point that he now requires an urgent surgical operation.
The lawyer begged the court to grant the request for Kanu’s transfer from the DSS custody to Kuje correctional centre so that he can begin treatment.
