Uncovered: How I Was Abducted In Kenya…Nnamdi Kanu Speaks From DSS Detention In Abuja.

Three weeks after controversial rearrest of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of Separatist group- Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has given details on how he was abducted in Kenya and brought back to Nigeria to face treason charges.

Mr Kanu’s special counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, was allowed to meet with the IPOB leader on Wednesday, inside the DSS detention facility Abuja, where he reportedly spoke with him for about three hours.

Mr Ejimakor made the disclosure to PREMIUM TIMES, Thursday morning, of what Mazi Kanu told him that transpired in the East African country of Kenya.

“The people that abducted him said that they were told by their sponsors that Kanu was a Nigerian terrorist linked to the Islamic terrorists in Kenya, presumably Al-Shabab.

Al-Shabab, a terrorist, jihadist group based in East Africa and Yemen, for decades has been carrying out deadly attacks in Kenya.

The Nigerian government must have contracted a third party, probably outside the knowledge and involvement of the Kenyan government, for the “interception” of Mr Kanu, going by the revelations from the IPOB leader.

Mr Kanu said he was held incommunicado and chained to a bare floor for eight days in a nondescript private facility in Kenya.

He said no warrant of arrest was shown to him or even mentioned to him, according to Mr Ejimakor.

“Kanu was in point of fact tortured and subjected to untold cruel and inhuman treatment in Kenya. He said his abductors disclosed to him that they abducted him at the behest of Nigerian government,” the lawyer said.

“He was blindfolded and driven to the tarmac very close to the plane without passing through the airport immigration. The plane departed Nairobi at about 12 p.m. and arrived Abuja in the evening.

“Kanu was flown to Abuja in the private jet on Sunday 27th June, 2021 from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi and that he was the lone passenger,” he added.

Mr Ejimakor said Mazi Kanu was interviewed for the first time by three SSS officers, in his presence.

“The interview was revealing as it contained certain new allegations that were never heard of before. But all the questions relate directly or indirectly to his status as the leader of IPOB.

“I observed that despite what he has passed through, he was in high spirits and looked forward to overcoming the extraordinary rendition that brought him to Nigeria,” the lawyer said.
