He described the action as a flagrant violation of the Abuja High Court order.
The family of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Friday raised the alarm about the health condition of their son.
This was made known by Kanu’s younger brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu in Umuahia, Abia State, while noting that the Department of State Services on Thursday denied them access to him.
He described the action as a flagrant violation of the Abuja High Court order.
“None of those who went to see him on Thursday was allowed to see him. Why would the DSS suddenly decide to deny Kanu access to his visitors, an action that is a flagrant violation of the Abuja High Court order? Such action raises suspicion that the DSS has something to hide about our brother.
“The DSS is stopping my brother’s visitors from seeing him, which is another flagrant disregard of a subsisting court order and their effort to conceal my brother’s deteriorating health condition.
“For me, the DSS has become a private security company where the authority manages it as his personal family business. I am yet to know why my brother is still currently in detention against court orders.”
The Abuja High Court had ordered the service to allow Kanu unfettered access to his family and lawyers twice a week.
