FG Moves Kanu’s Lawyer, Brother To Kuje Court After Abuja Protest
Aloy Ejimakor, Nnamdi Kanu's Special Counsel, and his brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu, were moved to Kuje Magistrate Court after being arrested during a protest in Abuja demanding Kanu's release. The protest, organized by Omoyele Sowore, led to several arrests, including Ejimakor and Emmanuel, for allegedly attempting to access restricted areas. Kanu's brother, Kanunta, accused the government of intimidating Kanu's legal team and family ahead of Kanu's trial. Police confirmed the arrests, stating the protesters violated a court order banning demonstrations in key areas of Abuja. Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of IPOB, has been detained since his re-arrest and extradition in 2021.
