Nnamdi Kanu Will Be Released Soon, Lawyer Assures

Ifeanyi Ejiofor, lawyer of detained leader of the Indigenous
People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has assured he would be
released soon.

He said there was no strong allegations to convict him, urging
Biafrans to be patient and prayerful.

“We’re in high spirit that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will soon come out
of detention sooner than expected, and better too. It’s one thing
for allegations to be made, it’s another thing to establish it. But
I don’t think there’s anything strong enough to convict him,” he
said.

Ejiofor disclosed that there was great improvement in Kanu’s
health condition, despite the inhuman treatment he was subjected to
while in Kenya.

“There’s no cause for worry. His health is improving. Only that
he has not been allowed access to his family, particularly his wife
and children, which I see as another level of mental torture.

“But we’re doing all we can to ensure he’s transferred to
appropriate custodian pending when his trial commences. We’re also
making efforts to get medical experts to ensure his health gets
stable,” he added.

While reaffirming alleged threats to his life, Ejiofor warning
those after him to desist forthwith, describing such venture as
exercise in futility.

“There’s no amount of intimidation or threats that can stop me
from defending Nnamdi Kanu. I advise those after me to have a
rethink because no body can kill me.

“I’m a man of destiny and on a divine assignment. God has
appointed me to be Kanu and IPOB’s lawyer. I’ll stand by him till
victory is guaranteed. All we need from Biafrans is prayers and
patience. Pray for him, and for us his lawyers too.”

On the expectations ahead of the July 26 court hearing, the IPOB
lawyer said: “Nothing extraordinary will happen that day. That I
can assure you. We’ll be there as usual to entertain applications.
If there’s any amendment, we’ll take it up from there.

“What we have is still the 3-count charge. We also have
application overdue for hearing, that is the invasion of his house
where 28 persons were killed.

“We have all the pictorial evidences. We’ll tender them before
the court so the court will look at them to ensure justice.”
