Aloy Ejimakor, counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), says “it is unnatural to negotiate with a man in chains”.
Ejimakor, who is among the lawyers defending Kanu against the Nigerian federal government, advised the nation’s authorities to ‘stop resisting every effort being made to release his client from detention’.
“When a man is in detention and you wish to negotiate with him, the first step you take is stopping resisting every effort being made to release him from detention. That’s how they negotiated with Mandela, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King. It’s unnatural to negotiate with a man in chains,” Ejimakor wrote on his known Facebook and Twitter pages on Tuesday night.

ABN TV reports that Kanu has been in the Department of State Services (DSS) custody since his arrest and extradition to Nigeria. He is on trial for a treasonable felony.
His trial is slated for October 21 at the Federal High Court of Nigeria. Kanu’s controversial IPOB organization has been advocating for the secession of southeastern Nigeria.
