We’re Worried About Nnamdi Kanu’s Health Status – Family Member

The family of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has raised concern over the health status of their son.

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, the first cousin of the IPOB leader, Chijindu Offor, urged the Federal Government to allow Kanu to see his doctors for thorough medical attention.

Offor stated that Kanu’s medical condition could worsen if not properly managed by his physicians, expressing serious worry over his failing health.

He asked the government not to allow Kanu to die in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) which could lead to serious chaos in the country.

Offor stated that the DSS lacks the needed facilities to handle his health challenges, hence the compelling need to allow him access to his private doctors for proper medical attention.

He urged the Federal Government to heed the appeals from various quarters to engage Kanu in dialogue with a view to resolving the cause of the growing agitation for self-determination.

According to Offor, dialogue and meaningful engagement is the only way to resolve the various agitations for self-determination in the country.

Offor urged leaders of the country to stop pretending and convene a round table discussion where the various genuine national questions will be frankly addressed to save Nigeria from the precipice.

He warned that intimidation and use of brute force by the government will not stop the growing agitation for self-determination by different regions in the country.
