“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is seriously sick and must be released unconditionally from DSS solidarity confinement for him to treat himself before something unpredictable and unimaginable happens to him,” IPOB said in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful on Wednesday.

He therefore called for the immediate release of the IPOB leader so that he can take care of his health.

The secessionist group claimed Nigerian government has refused to obey court order to release Kanu, though this claim has been found to be false in the past.

IPoB’s statement read: “The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, led by its resolute leader, Mazi Nnamdi Okwu Kanu once again call for the unconditional release of our leader from DSS solidarity confinement over his deteriorating health condition.

“The Nigerian government is intentionally provoking IPOB, by refusing to release our leader even when the Nigerian and International Courts have ordered for his unconditional release.

“IPoB wishes to reiterate that the life of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, is in danger in the solitary confinement of the DSS in Abuja. We have persistently called on the Nigerian government to release our leader as both international and local law institutions have ordered his release.

“Many prominent Nigerians, religious, traditional, and political leaders, including 50 members of the National Assembly, have equally called for his release. But Tinubu’s government has refused to listen to the voice of reason by refusing to release Mazi Kanu, just like his predecessor, Buhari.

“Tinubu’s government has discontinued similar cases of terrorism and treason charges against two Yoruba activists and a Fulani militia leader. In the case of an Igbo man, unarmed freedom activist, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, this same Tinubu’s government has vehemently refused to release him.

“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has subsisting local and international judgments that ordered for his release, unlike the Tinubu’s government discontinued cases of the Yoruba activist and Fulani terrorist without any court judgment.

“We are enumerating all these injustices to demonstrate that the Federal Government of Nigeria is intentionally provoking the anger of IPoB and Ndigbo.

“IPoB has maintained a non-violent approach in the Biafra struggle irrespective of the high-handedness of the Nigerian government against Biafra activists.

“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is seriously sick and must be released unconditionally from DSS solidarity confinement for him to treat himself before something unpredictable and unimaginable happens to him.

“Nigeria will not be the same if anything happens to him. In fact, Nigeria will cease to be if anything untoward happens to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.”
