The apex Igbo socio-political organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has called on the Federal Government to produce detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on Thursday.
Ohanaeze said if Kanu is produced in court unfailingly, it would indicate that the IPOB leader is sound in health.
Mazi Kanu is expected to appear before Justice Binta Nyako-led Federal High Court, in Abuja, on Thursday.
Following his re-arrest and repatriation from Kenya, the Department of State Services (DSS), had failed to produce Kanu in court in July.
However, the apex Igbo socio-political organisation, said the IPOB leader should be given a fair trial.
In a statement by its spokesman, Chiedozie Alex Ogbonnia, the group said the Federal government should “ensure that our son, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is produced in court on Thursday, October 21, 2021.
“This is necessary to prove to the global community that Nnamdi Kanu is not only hale and hearty but that shady judicial process is not contemplated while on trial”.
