The Officials of the Department of State Service, DSS on Thursday, in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Abuja, allegedly denied human rights activist, and former presidential aspirant, Omoyele Sowore, access to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB Nnamdi Kanu, despite granting him a formal invitation.

This was made known in a statement shared on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Thursday, 31st of August, 2023.

Sharing a document listing Sowore among those expected to visit Kanu on Thursday, Sowore said,

“Visitation to Nnamdi Kanu botched by DSS #FreeNnamdiKanuNow I spent several hours at the

OfficialDSSNG headquarters in Abuja, I was invited by Onyendu #MaziNnamdiKanu to pay him a visit in custody.

“However, after hours of rigmarole, the DSS told me I can’t see him today. This is the second time I am being denied lawfully ordered visitation to Mazi since his illegal abduction from Kenya.

“The #officialABATregime continues to demonstrate intolerance towards lawful agitation for self-determination. Tinubu is not different from #MBuhari. #Revolutionnow.”

It was noted that Sowore was denied access to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, despite granting him a formal invitation in September 2022.

Nnamdi Kanu was arrested on 14th of October, 2015, on an 11-count charge bordering on terrorism, treasonable felony, managing an unlawful society, publication of defamatory matter, illegal possession of firearms and improper importation of goods, among others.

The IPOB leader is being prosecuted over an allegation of treasonable felony preferred against him by the Federal Government.

He is facing seven counts after eight counts were struck out by the court. [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
