The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader has expressed concern about the growing number of detainees who are tuberculosis positive at the Department of State (DSS) facility in Abuja.
Kanu bemoaned the fact that numerous inmates at the DSS facility have tested positive for tuberculosis.
The IPOB leader made this disclosure on Thursday during a meeting with members of his legal team under the direction of Special Counsel Aloy Ejimakor.
Ejimakor tweeted: “I visited with #MNK today in the company of Prince Emma Kanu and one of his other lawyers. Onyendu directed that I extend his profound condolences to Mrs Rachel Nwosu on the demise of her gallant husband.
“He disclosed that numerous detainees at the DSS have now tested positive for Tuberculosis. He hopes the Nigerian government would alert the WHO & Red Cross to intervene before it becomes a pandemic inside the DSS.
“Onyendu’s poor health persists & he’s still not getting the required care. While I was with him, I observed his noticeable discomfort, malaise & general ill health. He salutes all who remain faithful & steadfast.”
