Nnamdi Kanu ill with low BP, DSS denied him access to doctors – Ejimakor


Aloy Ejimakor, lead Counsel of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has raised the alarm over the health status of the agitator.

Ejimakor said Kanu is ill with shortness of breath, low blood pressure and general malaise.

He lamented that the Department of State Services, DSS, refused doctors from having access to Kanu despite his ill-health.

Ejimakor disclosed this after a routine meeting between Kanu and his legal team at the DSS facility in Abuja.

According to Ejimakor: “Yesterday, during our visitation with MAZI NNAMDI KANU, we found him ill, with shortness of breath, low BP and general malaise.

“For this reason, he requested to see his Doctor and we submitted a letter in this regard. Today, the Doctor arrived the DSS but was denied access to #MNK.”

The IPOB leader has been detained at DSS facility since he was rearrested and repatriated to Nigeria from Kenya.

Kanu has earlier decried his ill-health and after much back and forth between his legal team and the DSS, he was allowed to seek medical attention.
