The Indigenous People of Biafra has called on the Federal Government to release its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, saying that his health is deteriorating in detention.
The pro-Biafran group stated this in a statement signed by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, on Friday.
The statement read, “IPOB is bringing to the notice of the international communities, that the Federal Government and her judiciary have planned a systematic murder of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, using the instrumentality of their fraudulent judicial system.
“Our leader was kidnapped and extraordinarily renditioned to Nigeria and detained for almost three years in DSS solidarity confinement in Abuja. His health has deteriorated inside the detention facilities, and DSS has been using experimental drugs and practices for his serious health issues.
“The DSS lacks proper medical facilities to take care of his falling heart conditions. The Appeal Court in Abuja has discharged and acquitted him, yet the lawless Federal Government has decided not to free him by using the corrupt legal system in Nigeria. They have also decided not to give him access to appropriate medical care.
“It seems like the Federal Government and her judiciary have decided to eliminate Kanu systematically by detaining him illegally until his heart and lungs give up.”
Powerful further stated that IPOB will avenge anybody or group that has a hand in the persecution of Kanu if anything untoward happens to him, adding that Kanu committed no crime.
