Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has met Ifeanyi Ejiofor, his lawyer, for the first time since his extradition into the country four weeks ago.
In a Twitter thread on Monday, Ejiofor said Kanu was stable despite the torture in solitary confinement.
“After weeks of speculations and uncertainties, we have finally seen our Client — Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. We can authoritatively confirm this position to the world. He is firm and stable, less the burden of solitary confinement and concomitant mental torture arising therefrom,” Ejiofor said.
”Though the Detaining Authority is giving him medical attention, he still requires advanced medical care, which formed substantial part of the relief in our application before the court. He specifically requested that we should extend his heartfelt compliments to millions of his supporters worldwide and all foreign governments and institutions who are relentlessly following up.
