The proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has again demanded the immediate release of its detained leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
The group argued that the safety of Kanu can’t be guaranteed in government care following the various threats of attacks which recently hit Abuja, the federal capital territory.
The IPOB leader has been in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Abuja since he was repatriated from Kenya in 2021.
However, IPOB in a statement on Thursday through its spokesperson, Emma Powerful said with the closure of schools in Abuja and other surrounding states over the fear of impending attack, nothing must happen to Kanu in DSS custody.
To avoid any such scenario, IPOB recommended the immediate and unconditional release of Kanu.
