Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, on Tuesday, claimed that his client was starving in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS).
According to him, none of the pronouncements made by Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, in Abuja, on December 2, 2021, has been obeyed by the DSS.
Ejiofor said these in a statement titled: “Update on today’s visit to our indefatigable client – Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu at the Headquarters of the Department of State Services Abuja.”

He said, “The routine visit to our client — Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was conducted on December 6, 2021, and in his usual practice, he extended his compliments to his millions of supporters. He remains profoundly grateful for the overwhelming support and show of solidarity thus far.
“However, we observed with dismay, and indeed very unfortunate and worrisome that notwithstanding the far-reaching orders made by Her Lordship in the open Court on December 2, 2021, the detaining authority being the DSS have in their usual style, flouted and/or ignored the said court orders.
