…By Joseph Benjamin for TDPel Media. In a recent statement, Aloy Ejimakor, the Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), revealed that Kanu had directly assigned him the task of finding an independent medical doctor to attend to his health needs.
Ejimakor’s statement was made in response to a publication by Chika Edoziem, an IPOB chieftain, who claimed that Ejimakor and two medical doctors were banned from visiting Kanu in detention.
Ejimakor accused Edoziem of jeopardizing Kanu’s life by preventing medical professionals from accessing him.
The Exclusive Task of Securing Independent Medical Care:
Ejimakor explained that Kanu had given him the assignment to ensure he receives the necessary independent medical care.
Ejimakor emphasized that matters concerning Kanu’s health should not involve him or Kanu’s family.
He stated that according to the court order on visitations, only Kanu has the sole authority to choose his visitors, including lawyers, doctors, and relatives.
Ejimakor clarified that Kanu alone has the power to invite a medical doctor of his choice to assess his health, citing a previous instance in August 2022 where Kanu’s chosen doctor was blocked at the last minute.
Allegations of Conspiracy:
Ejimakor highlighted that Edoziem’s publications inadvertently admitted to being part of a conspiracy that prevented Kanu’s chosen doctors from visiting him.
He emphasized the danger posed by blocking independent medical professionals from accessing Kanu, especially when it was Kanu himself who selected them.
Ejimakor cautioned against using Kanu’s health as a means to settle personal scores with his family or lawyers.
Warning and Consequences:
Ejimakor issued a stern warning to those involved, stressing that blocking medical professionals from attending to Kanu’s health was a deliberate endangerment of his life.
He urged individuals to reconsider their actions, as Kanu would not tolerate such negligence regarding his well-being.
Ejimakor firmly stated that anyone persisting in such actions would face the consequences, as Kanu prioritizes his health and would take necessary measures to address the situation.
Conclusion:
Ejimakor concluded by acknowledging the publicized statements made by Chika Edoziem and others, which he regarded as a threat to Kanu’s life, health, and safety.
He affirmed that these accusations against himself, Kanu’s family, and the blocked doctors had been duly noted and would be addressed in an appropriate forum.
Meanwhile, he revealed that he was dealing with personal threats made against him and his family in light of these serious allegations.
