Ekpa rose to prominence in July 2021, after he was announced as the lead broadcaster of Radio Biafra.

Kanu has been in the custody of the Department of State Services since June 2021 when he was re-arrested in Kenya and returned to Nigeria by the Nigerian government for continued trial on treasonable felony and terrorism charges pressed against him by the government.On October 13, 2022, a three-man panel of Court of Appeal judges in their unanimous decision ruled that Kanu’s rendition from Kenya was illegal.
