Nnamdi Kanu’s lead counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, has refuted claims suggesting that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader escaped from the Department of State Services (DSS) custody.
Ejimakor responded to allegations of Kanu’s escape from the DSS holding facility in Abuja, dismissing reports circulated by some publications on Thursday, which purported that the Biafra secessionist orchestrated his getaway, catching the authorities off guard.
According to the report; “Nnamdi Kanu escapes from DSS custody with case file’, said, “According to reliable sources, Kanu’s escape was executed with meticulous planning and precision, catching the authorities off guard.
“Details surrounding the escape remain murky, with speculation ranging from insider assistance to external support.”
Reacting to an inquiry from Daily Post on Friday, June 14 Ejimakor said said it is untrue and noted that Kanu will stay put to fight the injustice in the system as he is a courageous freedom fighter.
He said; “It’s not true. I will be visiting him today by 2:00 pm. Kanu is a responsible and courageous freedom fighter and he is determined to stay put to fight the injustice within the system, not outside of it. He is too big to contemplate the option of escaping.”
