Jidechukwu, the first son of the late former President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, has disclosed that his father developed heart complications after visiting Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, at the Department of State Services, DSS, facility in Abuja.
He disclosed that his father was made to walk for 20 minutes during his visit to Kanu at the DSS facility. In a statement yesterday, Jidechukwu said the former Ohanaeze President-General developed a heart illness after the visit and was rushed to a hospital, where he died.

“The next morning, he broke down and was rushed to the hospital. “He was at the hospital until his death. While at the hospital, he was still fighting for Kanu’s release and the realization of the South East Development Commission for the betterment of Ala Igbo. “I’m sure if he were alive, he would have been happy to see one of his wishes come true. “My father was a man of peace and a man who loved his people, Ndigbo, and Nigeria at large.
