IPOB Lead Counsel Clarifies Claims On Nnamdi Kanu’s Agreement To Comply With Tinubu Govt’s Terms Of Release—-Aloy Ejimakor, the lead counsel of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has refuted claims that the Biafra agitator agreed to abide by any conditions for his release.
TGM reported that Abia South Senator, Enyinnaya Abaribe had disclosed that Kanu agreed to comply with any conditions set by the President Bola Tinubu-led Federal government for his release from the custody of the DSS.
Abaribe disclosed this during a meeting between the Southeast senators and the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, on Kanu’s release.
Senator Abaribe led approximately 15 federal lawmakers in the closed-door meeting.
Abaribe, speaking on behalf of his colleagues after the meeting, expressed optimism that the Attorney-General would influence the Federal Government to consider releasing Kanu.
However, Ejimakor, in a chat with Daily Post, said the report is incorrect, stating that the leading legal team had a routine meeting with Kanu in the custody of the Department of State Services, DSS.
According to him, Kanu will abide only by the negotiated terms of his release.
He said: “The legal team met with MAZI NNAMDI KANU today. The news that he will abide by “any conditions” for his release is incorrect.
“What was meant is that he will abide by the “NEGOTIATED terms” of his release and on other matters related thereto, such as was also agreed in August 2017.”
