Prince Emmanuel Kanu, brother to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has raised alarm over the heavy deployment of security operatives around the family home.
In a post on his official Facebook page on Thursday morning, Prince Kanu warned that the residence had been surrounded by a “large number of security agents” just hours before the long-awaited judgment on Kanu’s terrorism-related cases.
“Breaking news! Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s family house is currently surrounded by a large number of security agents. We are alerting the whole world,” he wrote.
Nigerian Newssphere reports that Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja, is expected to rule today on several applications filed by the Federal Government against the IPOB leader.
Kanu, who has been in detention since 2021, is standing trial on seven terrorism-related charges, including alleged incitement, operating an unlawful organization, and actions said to threaten national security.
