Aloy Ejimakor, lawyer to the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has said the Biafra agitator is seriously sick as tuberculosis is spreading in DSS cell.
Ejimakor, in a post on Twitter said he visited Kanu on Thursday in Department of State Services (DSS) cell, saying he is sick.
He quoted Kanu as saying that numerous detainees at the DSS had now tested positive for Tuberculosis.
Ejimakor said Kanu hoped that the Nigerian government alerted the World Health Organisation and the Red Cross to intervene before it becomes a pandemic inside the DSS.
He wrote: “I visited with #MNK today in the company of Prince Emma Kanu & one of his other lawyers. Onyendu directed that I extend his profound condolences to Mrs Rachel Nwosu on the demise of her gallant husband.
“He disclosed that numerous detainees at the DSS have now tested positive for Tuberculosis. He hopes the Nigerian government would alert the WHO & Red Cross to intervene before it becomes a pandemic inside the DSS.
“Onyendu’s poor health persists & he’s still not getting the required care. While I was with him, I observed his noticeable discomfort, malaise & general ill-health. He salutes all who remain faithful & steadfast.”
