Aloy Ejimakor, the Special Counsel to Nigerian Biafra political activist, Nnamdi Kanu, and the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) says reports claiming his client will be freed today is “premature” and based on “assumption”.
Ejimakor said this in an interview with BBC News Pidgin published on the website on Thursday morning.
According to him, he is not happy with the rumours bandied about by most IPOB separatists.
Kanu’s treason case was originally scheduled to be heard next year, but the court granted an abridgement of time after a motion was filed by the Nigerian separatist leader.
“Those reports that Kanu would be free is unprofessional.
“The hearing has not held yet.
“What will happen tomorrow is not different from what we have been doing before”, Ejimakor said.
