Uchechi Kanu, wife of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has visited the Biafra agitator in custody of the Department of State Services, DSS.
During a live session on Radio Biafra on Sunday, Mrs Kanu disclosed her visit to her husband in DSS custody was facilitated by Anambra South Senator, Ifeanyi Ubah.
Before her visit, it was gathered that the woman had been repeatedly denied access to her husband.
Addressing IPOB members on radio i Uchechi commended Ubah for facilitating the visit.
She said: “Let me use this opportunity to thank Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who moved swiftly to facilitate my visit to my husband in DSS custody. I thank you, sir.
“I thank other Igbo politicians, governors, and political office holders who are concerned about the plight of my husband.
”A lot of these elites are concerned about the unlawful detention of my husband, and are working silently to secure a round table discussion for his release. I’m thankful to them,” she said.
Ubah also confirmed to journalists on Monday, when contacted, that he facilitated the visit of Mrs Kanu to her husband when he learnt that she was finding it difficult to visit him in detention.
Kanu has been detained at the DSS detention since his rendition from Kenya in 2021 after he was rearrested for allegedly jumping bail in 2017 when he fled the country.
