The case filed by the lawyer for Nnamdi Kanu seeking the court to order the Department of State Services (DSS) to provide him access to a doctor of his choice has been set for hearing on July 20 by an Abuja-based Federal High Court.
When the lawsuit was being heard, Mike Ozekhome, the imprisoned IPOB leader’s lawyer, notified the court that the IPOB leader, who is being held by the secret police, needs immediate ear surgery.
According to Ozekhome, the DSS has frequently denied Kanu access to his personal doctor and has allegedly withheld the pro-Biafra agitator’s medical documents.
In his response, counsel for the DSS argued that the Kanu is being given proper feeding and medical attention while in the custody of the secret police
