Biafra: Lawyer Ejimakor debunks rumour of Nnamdi Kanu’s release

The lead counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Aloy Ejimakor, has debunked rumours of the Biafra agitator’s release.

Ejimakor described the rumours of Kanu’s release as fake news.

Posting on X, the lead counsel said there won’t be any need for confirmation when Kanu is released.

He wrote: “Fake News Alert: The general public is hereby advised to disregard the viral rumor that MAZI NNAMDI KANU has been released.

“It’s pure #FakeNews. The day #MNK (the #BigElephant & leader of millions) is freed, the earth itself will announce it and it won’t require any confirmation.”

Kanu has been detained since he was rearrested and subjected to extraordinary rendition from Kenya to Nigeria.

Upon return to Nigeria, courts had granted the IPOB leader bail but the Nigerian government has refused to release him.

While Kanu languished in detention at the Department of State Services, DSS, the secret police had blocked all attempts by his legal team to have access to him.
