IPOB: DSS stops Kanu from signing letter for UK consular assistance

Nnamdi Kanu

ABUzJA – Aloy Ejimakor, one of the counsel for Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader on the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has revealed that the Department of State Services, DSS has stopped the IPOB leader, from signing a consular assistance form by the United Kingdom.

Ejimakor made this known in a statement on Monday, 19th July, 2021, after visiting Kanu in DSS custody.

The IPOB leader holds both Nigerian and British citizenship.

Kanu, who was rearrested recently from overseas, is facing terrorism-related charges. He had jumped bail before fleeing to the United Kingdom. The IPOB leader was, however, rearrested in controversial circumstances lately and brought back to Nigeria. He has since been detained in the custody of the Department of State Services.
