Nigeria Prisons Services (NPS) and a faction of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), The Re-branded Indigenous People of Biafra (TRIPOB) have dismissed claims that Nnamdi Kanu is seriously ill at the Kuje Medium Security Prisons in Abuja.
Prisons specifically described the illness claim as fallacious while TRIPOB, in a statement yesterday said it visited Kuje prisons and “found Kanu hale and hearty and as fit as fiddle.
“TRIPOB was mandated to visit and ascertain facts and condition of our leader, Charles Okah, who also happens to be an inmate with Kanu, in the same Kuje prisons.. Their findings revealed…that Kanu looked hale and hearty, received visitors and was as fit as fiddle…”
Regardless, the NPS said there was no iota of truth in the claim that the prison authority shot poisonous gas into Kanu’s cell to suffocate him.
IPOB had, in a statement signed by its spokespersons, Emma Nmezu and Clifford Iroanya, raised concerns over the ugly treatment the prison authority meted out on its leader, alleging that apart from being ill presently, poisonous gas was recently shot into his cell to suffocate him.
However, reacting to the allegations, spokesperson of the FCT Prisons, Humphrey Chukwuedo, told Reporters on telephone that it was shocking to read such spurious allegations from IPOB, adding that since Kanu was not staying alone in a cell, there was no way he would have been targeted for suffocation.
“Kanu’s issue is really getting out of hand. The truth is that no one used any poisonous substance in Kanu’s cell because he is not the only person in the cell. If we target to kill him, will we also kill the other cell inmates,” he said.
Asked to confirm the state of his health, the image-maker of the prison simply said: “Kanu is okay, to the best of my knowledge.”
His case can be likened to when Okah was in custody. Most of them in that category will be forming seriously ill, so as to have the opportunity to be taken to hospital.
Since we have competent medical doctors to handle their illnesses, we don’t usually allow their situation to get out of hand. His health is the normal everyday health
