Alloy Ejimakor, counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra , says the Department of State Services is restricting access to the defendant.
It ordered that Kanu must be given “a clean place” to consult with his lawyers at the DSS detention facility, adding that he must be granted access to a doctor of his choice.Ejimakor said the court had also directed that the lawyers should be allowed to consult with Kanu as a team and not separately, and that such consultation be done in a “private room”.
“Additionally, the room where the lawyers were separately taken to meet with Kanu is the office of a senior officer of the DSS and hardly qualifies as a private room that is presumably free from any secret monitoring devices, which is the case with the interrogation room where Kanu previously met with his lawyers.
