BREAKING: Nnamdi Kanu Replies Buhari After Vowing Not To Release Him From Detention—-The Genius Media Nigeria reports that the IPOB leader’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, has related his client’s response in a statement issued late Thursday over Buhari;s comment.
This reliable platform gathered that Kanu’s lawyer described the president’s statement as a “stereotyped response”, said Kanu’s camp was not “one bit perturbed” because they know that the Federal Government has no case against the IPOB leader.
Read his full statement below:
“What we are earnestly asking for is nothing else, but for the executive arm of Government led by the President of the FRN, to desist from further interfering in the judicial process. We can authoritatively confirm to the World that the executive arm of the Government of the FRN, ably led by the President is gravely and effectively interfering in our Client’s judicial proceedings.
“To demonstrate good faith and impartiality, we beckon on the President of the FRN to first caution the DSS which answers solely to him, to obey all Court Orders as it relates to the management of this case.
“Our Client, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should not be detained in solitary confinement (which is an act of torture) in the custody of the same Agency accusing him of committing sundry offences and expect fair hearing. Hence, there is no independence of the judiciary as far as this case is concerned, and the President of the FRN is fully aware of this.
“If it is the position of the President of the FRN to allow fair hearing, he should follow up and ensure its reality, most promptly.
“In view of the ongoing and incessant abduction and/or disappearance of numerous innocent citizens in the south east, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, admonished all and sundry, particularly his followers/supporters, to be wary, vigilant and circumspect at all times, particularly as it relates to calls and contacts from unknown persons.
“Onyendu as usual, sends his appreciation to all his ardent followers who have remained undaunted and defiant against all odds.”
