Kanu was said to have been enraged over the spate of bloodletting and insecurity in the South East and quoted as saying that all those behind the current killings in South East must be held accountable for their atrocities, as Ndigbo are not known for cannibalism.
According to his junior brother, Mama Biafra, a septuagenarian was arrested during Kanu’s last court appearance in Abuja on May 18,disclosing that Mazi Kanu said the woman had been acting as his mother since his parents died in 2020.
The old woman, Kanu said commited no crime for coming to Abuja to solidarise with him at the court when she was arrested, regretting “I saw her at the DSS detention cell after her clothes were washed and spread on the wall. I demand that she be released because she commited no crime.
“She is an old woman and since my mother died I have taken her as my mother. The DSS should release her”.
The IPOB Leader also cleared the air over whether he was the one that Gov. Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State met when he visited the DSS headquarters last week, noting that there was no basis for people to doubt whether Soludo met him, explaining that the Barcelona club attire he wore when the Governor visited was his night wear.
Kanu pleaded with all to ensure there is peace in South East which is known for peace, adding that those behind the insecurity in the zone do not mean well for the people.
