Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the lead lawyer to Nnamdi Kanu, has accused the Department of State Services, DSS, of refusing to obey court orders on allowing the agitator to change clothes and eat.

Ejiofor said that the DSS is punishing Kanu because his legal team complained about the harsh treatment they subjected him to in custody. Information Guide Nigeria

Part of the statement reads thus: “We were informed by our client Nnamdi Kanu that none of the pronouncement made by the Court on the 2nd of December 2021 has been obeyed by the lawless DSS. They have unrepentantly continued to treat the Orders of the Court with the greatest disdain”.

“Our client – Nnamdi Kanu further informed us that he had not eaten anything since Sunday, apparently being punished because we dared to complain to the court about the harsh condition under which he is being held in custody. But, very, unfortunately, this should be the height of their reckless affront to the orders of the court”.

“At the time Her Lordship made these far-reaching orders in open court, I did not mince words in bringing to the attention of the court that the operatives of the DSS will flout these orders, pursuant to which the court specifically directed me to come back to her with these facts if her order is flouted by the detaining authority.”

Justice Binta Nyako of the Abuja Federal High Court had ordered the DSS not to discriminate against Kanu while in their custody. jamb results

She also ordered the secret police to allow Kanu to change his clothes and practice his religion freely.

Kanu has been in DSS custody since July when he was arrested in Kenya and deported back to Nigeria.
