The Lead Counsel of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor has stated that they would be exploring far reaching legal measures to command immediate compliance with the Court judgement that discharged the leader of IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
It should be recalled that the Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal had discharged leader of the IPOB of the 15-count terrorism charges brought against him by the Federal Government.
Writing on his verified Facebook account, Ejimofor said:
“The DSS is expected to immediately enforce the positive Orders of the Court and immediately release Onyendu without further ado and unconditionally.
“We shall be exploring far reaching legal measures to command immediate compliance with this erudite Court judgement freeing Onyendu, though the details of our strategic legal engagements shall remain private.
“We have won and won them forever. They can never recover from it again.”
He also said:
“As you are all aware, upon the delivery of this judgement on the 13th day of October, 2022, the detention of Onyendu in the facility of the DSS, which was strongly condemned and equally prohibited by the judgment of the Court of Appeal under reference, became gravely illegal and unconstitutional as there is nothing whatsoever, legalising the further detention of Onyendu in the detention facility of the DSS. Unfortunately, the breach of Onyendu’s Fundamental Rights by the autocratic Government of Nigeria has continued unabated till now.”
