Lead Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, the embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)), Mike Ozekhome, has lamented that his client is going blind.
Speaking at the resumed trial of the the Biafra agitation leader, before Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court on Wednesday, Ozekhome stated that Kanu may go blind if nothing is made to restore his sight.
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria accused the DSS of seizing the pro-Biafra activist’s eyeglasses in 2015, when he was initially arrested by DSS operatives.
Ozekhome stated that the court also seized the new pair Nnamdi Kanu was with during his extradition from Kenya.
In Ozekhome’s words, “My lord, since 2015, his glasses were taken from him.
“The one he wore before his extraordinary rendition from Kenya was also taken from him.
“Till now, he does not have glasses to wear and his sight is deteriorating.
“My Lord we do not want the Defendant to go blind, that is why we have decided to bring it to the attention of the court.”
