Biafra: IPOB, Family Members Disown Kanu’s Wife On Change Of Lawyer by queentell(f): 6:53am On Jan 18, 2016 |
AS the detained Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu is due to appear in court today, his group and family members have distanced themselves from his wife’s plan, Mrs Uchechi Okwu-Kanu, to change his lawyer, Mr. Vincent Obetta. Deputy Director of IPOB, Mr. Alphonsus Uche-Mefor, who spoke to Daily Sun from London yesterday said IPOB has not taken any decision to change Vincent Obeta as his wife’s lead counsel defending its leader who is standing trial on charges bordering on treasonable felony. Kanu’s wife had, in a paid advertorial published in a national daily yesterday announced the change of Mr. Obeta who had been lawyer to Kanu with Mr. Ifeanyi Ejiofo. Mrs Okwu-Kanu had claimed that the decision to appoint a new lawyer for her husband was taken at a meeting of the IPOB held on January 9, at Forest Gate, East London. But Mefor and Kanu’s brother, Mr. Kingsley Kanunta Okwu-Kanu, who also spoke to Daily Sun from Germany, said they were at the said meeting and IPOB never took the decision to change Obeta as the counsel to its leader. They insisted Obeta has, so far, done very well in the representation of Kanu in court, saying IPOB has no intention to change him now. Also, in a telephone chat with Daily Sun, Kanu’s siblings, Prince Emmanuel and Princess Chi Kanu, who spoke from their hometown, opposed the change of Obeta who they said has done well as Kanu’s lawyer. “We are not against any lawyer coming from whatever group to defend Nnamdi, including Mr. Ejiofor, but, he must work in concert with Obeta who has handled this matter from the first day for the sake of continuity and to avoid confusion,” the Kanus said.

Well since the only real thing they can do is protest on every part of the country while they secretly loot shops and offices Wike's ban has crippled them , lawyer or no lawyer Nnamdi is on his own Where are the goats that said this was his plan? That his arrest will make him a matyr for the biafran cause? When you least expect it, expect it meaning trust yourself and make plans on plans if you rely on people this is what happens Nnamdi is a goner 6 Likes |

I hope they resolve it . The wife probably smells a rat. Maybe she thinks his loyalty may have been compromised. Anyways, Nnamdi now is the time for you to get on your knees cus when confusion begins to set in amongst people who are supposed to rescue u, then there is cause for concern. 1 Like |
