The Special Counsel to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, has revealed that the medical condition of the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu is worsening.
Ejimakor, who wrote a letter to the European Union in Nigeria on Wednesday and posted a copy on his Twitter page, urged the EU to intervene in Kanu’s case, adding that the Federal Government would listen to a plea from the EU.
He further added that the EU should urge the Federal Government to cease and desist from further criminal prosecution of Kanu and instead to constructively engage him in seeking political solution to the Biafran question.
The lawyer also added that the intervention of the EU would be necessary in urging the Federal Government to be “guided in all matters relating to Mr Kanu by the letters and spirit of the United Nations Working Group Opinion, the judgement of the Federal High Court of Nigeria (Umuahia), the judgment of the High Court of Abia State and the judgment of the Court of Appeal of Nigeria.”
Although the Court of Appeal had discharged Kanu in October, the Federal Government claimed that he was only discharged and not acquitted
