Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer has spoken about a document to sign as condition of IPOB leader’s release.
EKOHOTBLOG reports that Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the lead counsel for the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has debunked a widely-circulated report that his client was given a document to sign as a condition of his freedom.
This online news platform understands that a story had circulated on Twitter on Thursday that the Federal Government (FG) provided a document for the IPOB leader to sign, but that he rejected it.
However, Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, while reacting to the viral report via a statement on Friday, described it as fake news meant to create panic among pro-Biafra agitators.
Ejiofor further disclosed his routine visit to Kanu in the detention of the Department of State Services (DSS) on Thursday, adding that the IPOB leader also found the rumour laughable when he was told.
The lawyer stated that the FG has no plausible excuse “not to produce Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in court come Thursday, the 21st day of October 2021”.
Ejiofor stated, “As the D-Day approaches, the legal team is not leaving any stone unturned towards ensuring that all the “t’s” are crossed and “i’s” dotted.
“It was indeed an eventful visit as our indefatigable Client found as laughable, the series of false narratives being spread to the public domain, ostensibly sponsored by the agents of darkness who are very deep in their dream to prevent his appearance in court and to create a state of panic in the minds of his followers.

“Prominent among the falsehood desperately championed by mischief makers is the trending subject that our dear Client, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been flown to China, and from China to Israel, and from Israel to Kontokatafi, etc. We know the purveyors of this fake news and they are aware that their evil conspiracies are dead on arrival.
“Onyendu was equally amazed by another fake news that was making headline in some social media quarters that he was asked to sign any document before regaining his freedom. This is total falsehood and he is urging his esteemed followers to please ignore this falsehood.
“Above all, our indefatigable Client is strong and tenaciously holding firm in spirit. He is ready for the 21st October 2021 appearance in court. This date is SACROSANCT and shall remain so,” the statement read.
