A lawyer to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi
Kanu has alleged fears of threat to the life of his client currently under
custody at the Kuje prison facility in Abuja. Ifeanyi Ejiofor who spoke to
NAIJ.com said security operatives at the Kuje prison shot five canisters of
tear gas into Kanu’s cell during a riot that broke out at the facility on
Monday, August 29.
Ejiofor said: “As we speak right no, Nnamdi Kanu’s life is
under threat, there is a situation in the prison custody right now.” “There was
a particular cell – very far from where he is – the cell was being searched by
security operatives in the course of their routine exercise,” Ejiofor said.
“This is happening now as I am talking to you this moment,
now, that cell is being searched and in the cause of the search, the security
operatives had problems with the inmates. “This particular cell is far far far
away from where Nnamdi Kanu is being kept, the security personnel now started
shooting tear gas and also shooting guns indiscriminately,” he said.
