My Client May Have Been Killed, Abducted – Nnamdi Kanu’s Lawyer Claims

Lawyer representing leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has said he hasn’t communicated with his client since September 14, when Mr. Kanu’s Abia State home was allegedly invaded by soldiers.
The lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, reacting to reports that Mr. Kanu had gone into hiding said “my client has probably been killed” – Kanu was last seen in public on September 10, after his supporters clashed with soldiers.
Mr. Ejiofor said Mr. Kanu was abducted, and claimed that reports that his client had gone into hiding were merely aimed at “diverting the attention of the public”.
He’s quoted as saying:
“I have no doubt whatsoever that stories making round that my Client has fled outside Nigeria, were planted to divert attention from their murderous raid on my client’s house. I made last contact with my client few minutes into the bloody onslaught in his home on the 14th day of September 2017. Till date, I have not established further communication with him.
“The soldiers must have made possible contact with him on this 14th day of September 2017, when they invaded his house on a bloody raid, and by virtue of which position, they should tell the world if he was caught by fire of bullets in the hit of the bloody onslaught or he was arrested alive.
“In all probability, my client may have been killed by the invading soldiers who are now seeking ways to fool the world into believing that he has left the country. My request is that the military should produce my client wherever they kept him and stop diverting attention of the public,” Mr. Ejiofor said.
