DSS Stopped Lawyer, Others From Seeing Nnamdi Kannu In Detention

IFEANYI EJIOFOR, Lead Counsel for the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, NNAMDI KANU, has said that the Department of State Services stopped the detainee from seeing his lawyers yesterday.

EJIOFOR, in a statement this morning, said the secret police denied himself and other lawyers including IPOB’s Attorney in the United States, BRUCE FEIN, from meeting with KANU.

He described the denial as a violation of the order of a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja which ordered that the DSS should allow the lawyers to visit KANU twice a week. The lawyer had previously alleged maltreatment by the DSS during the routine visits.
