Nnamdi Kanu Declines Transfer from Sokoto Prison After Court Rejection, Wife Clarifies Sequence of Events | #IgbereTV
Nnamdi Kanu, the imprisoned leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has declined to be transferred from Sokoto Correctional Centre to Abuja, according to a detailed statement released on 29 July 2026 by his wife, Uchechigeme Anyanwụụtụtụ Okwu-Kanu.
The development follows an earlier court application in which Kanu sought to be moved from the facility in Sokoto, more than 700 kilometres from Abuja. The application was heard before Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court. On 8 December 2025, the judge refused the ex parte application, ruling that such an order could not be granted without first hearing from the Federal Government.
The matter later returned to court, where the application was ultimately struck out after counsel from the Legal Aid Council sought to withdraw from the case. Court-appointed Legal Aid counsel had been provided; Kanu thereafter represented himself.
In her statement, Okwu-Kanu said she had consistently advocated for her husband’s transfer from Sokoto since the earliest days of his detention there. “My concern was never political. It was humanitarian, legal and practical,” she wrote. The long distance, she explained, made family visits, legal consultations and access to his case files unnecessarily difficult.
While she pursued diplomatic and consular channels, including engagement with the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), Kanu independently filed his own application at the Federal High Court seeking relocation to Abuja to better prepare and file aspects of his defence. After the court’s refusal on 8 December 2025, she continued pressing official channels and later received confirmation from the FCDO case handler that arrangements for the transfer had been made.
At that point, she was informed that her husband had declined to be moved. Following her insistence on an explanation, it was relayed to her that Kanu believed the earlier rejection of his court application had been manipulated. From his perspective, there had been no legitimate reason for the court to refuse the request. He therefore chose to remain in Sokoto, preferring that if he eventually regained his freedom, he would go directly home from there rather than accept a transfer obtained through a different process.
Okwu-Kanu emphasised that her own position never changed. “From day one, I believed that transferring him to Abuja was in his best interests for his safety, his welfare, his access to legal representation and his family’s ability to visit him. I pursued that objective consistently until I was informed that he had chosen otherwise.”
She stated that the purpose of her public clarification was to address months of speculation surrounding the issue. Looking ahead, she announced that the next campaign would focus on securing Kanu’s release and return home. Addressing supporters, she wrote: “Biafrans, this is the time to prove that #IPOB is one family. You all did it when I started the #FreeNnamdiKanu petition while those who love him with their lips were not found. Today, there is a subsequent activity and I implore you all to join me. “

"Nigerians come and see what police officers are doing to me"
-Man cries out, as he shared video between him and Nigerian police officers in Benin, Edo state.
PATHETIC:
The 1st video shows how South African policemen beat & strangled Chika Ibe to death.
The 2nd video reports the outrage of Nigerians in South Africa.
The govt of South Africa must be held accountable & the Nigerian Govt must act now not later.
Despite denials from the South African Police a video from Bellville, Cape Town, appears to show officers restraining Chika Ibe, a Nigerian from Abia State, in a manner that some witnesses allege involved strangulation and suffocation. Chika Ibe later died following the incident

Reports of another massacre in Naridon village, kauru lga of kaduna state yesterday night.... 30+ mostly women and children were killed in their homes by yet to be identified gunmen..
A 25-year-old Nigerian student has shared his alleged encounter with police officers, claiming he and his friend were ass@ulted during an argum£nt over a driver's licence.
The encounter began as a routine stop-and-search operation along the highway. Tension erupted when the officers allegedly demanded money or a bribe to let the motorist pass. When the driver refused and began documenting the encounter, the officers aggressively tried to stop him.
As seen in the video, the motorist began crying out to bystanders, shouting: "See wetin police they do me for Benin! See wetin police they do me! I be citizen... you no have right to abuse me."An officer fiercely responded, "You don't have the right to record a police officer... I will take you to the office." The situation escalated into a physical scuffle as the officers attempted to seize his phone and force him into compliance.
Nnamdi Kanu writes from Sokoto prison, sacks personal lawyer Ifeanyi Ejiofor
By Francis Ugwu (Daily Post)
The jailed leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has formally terminated the services of his longtime personal lawyer, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor, and directed him to stop representing him, his family, or IPOB in any capacity.
In a letter dated July 22, 2026, and written from the Sokoto Correctional Centre, Kanu said Ejiofor’s engagement as his personal legal representative had earlier been terminated verbally, adding that the latest correspondence served as formal written confirmation of that decision.
Kanu also withdrew what he described as any authority previously granted to Ejiofor to act for or represent IPOB, insisting that the lawyer no longer had any express, implied or ostensible authority to speak or act on behalf of the separatist group.
Citing Section II, Subsection A of the IPOB Code of Conduct, Kanu said the power to appoint, suspend or dismiss principal officers rests exclusively with the IPOB leader unless expressly delegated.
According to him, no individual, committee or former office holder acting outside the provisions of the IPOB Code of Conduct can validly appoint or retain legal representatives for the organisation.
He therefore maintained that any purported mandate or authority claimed by Ejiofor to represent IPOB was no longer recognised.
Kanu directed the lawyer to immediately cease making public statements, granting interviews, issuing press releases or publishing social media posts on behalf of him, his family or IPOB.
He also instructed Ejiofor to stop presenting himself as his legal representative or that of IPOB in any court, forum or public space and to take the necessary legal steps to withdraw from any pending matters where he remained counsel on record.
“Accordingly, I hereby place you on formal notice that you are not authorized to disclose, publish, communicate, exploit, or otherwise use any confidential or privileged information acquired in the course of your retainer, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose whatsoever, except as required by law or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, without my express written authorization from me.
“Any unauthorized disclosure or misuse of privileged information may constitute professional misconduct and may give rise to disciplinary proceedings before the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee, as well as any other remedies available under the law,” parts of the statement read.
Kanu cautioned that any breach of client confidentiality or unauthorized disclosure of privileged information could amount to professional misconduct and attract disciplinary proceedings before the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee, LPDC, in addition to other legal actions.
