Uchechi Kanu, the wife of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has visited the Biafra agitator in the Department of State Services, (DSS) custody.

Mrs Kanu disclosed that her visit to her husband in DSS custody was facilitated by Anambra South Senator, Ifeanyi Ubah. Before her visit, it was gathered that Mrs Kanu had been repeatedly denied access to her husband.

Kanu has been in the custody of DSS since 2021 after he was renditioned from Kenya and is facing different lawsuits from the Nigerian Government

Addressing IPOB members on radio in the United Kingdom on Sunday, May 5, Uchechi commended Ubah for facilitating the visit.

She said: “Let me use this opportunity to thank Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who moved swiftly to facilitate my visit to my husband in DSS custody. I thank you, sir.

“I thank other Igbo politicians, governors, and political office holders who are concerned about the plight of my husband.

”A lot of these elites are concerned about the unlawful detention of my husband, and are working silently to secure a round table discussion for his release. I’m thankful to them.”
