Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has been briefed on the directive of the United Nations Working Group (UNWG) for his immediate and unconditional release.
Kanu’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor said this in a statement following his routine visit to the separatist agitator in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS), Abuja.
Ejiofor said Kanu was delighted to receive the news that an international body has waded in to demand for his release.
The lawyer added that he informed Kanu about his victory over the nation’s security agencies at the Federal High Court, in Awka, Anambra state last week.
He, however, said Kanu was sad over the persistent killings of youths in the South East which he said it was state-sponsored.
