File: IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu
The family of the convicted leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has expressed concerns about his health.
They also called on relevant authorities to ensure he has continued access to independent medical care.
A statement on Wednesday by Emmanuel Kanu on behalf of the Okwu-Kanu family said it was worried about Kanu’s medical condition and the treatment of his independent medical team.
“While Kanu was in custody, his health was systematically neglected and mismanaged. State-appointed doctors allowed his potassium level to fall to what independent physicians described as a life-threatening level capable of causing cardiac arrest.
