Detained IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu has petitioned the DSS, through his lawyer Aloy Ejimakor, requesting urgent medical care over his worsening health condition in custody.
The letter, dated September 23, 2025, and titled, “Re: Request for your Urgent Approval of Hospital for the Admission of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu”, sought urgent admission of Kanu in the hospital.
“With reference to the latest medical evaluation of Mazi Mmmdi by your team of physicians (in the presence of his brother, Prince Emmare! Team), we hereby seek your kind and urgent approval of the hospital selected for the prompt admission and further management of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s health,” the letter obtained by SaharaReporters read.
According to the letter, the selected hospital is Clover Hospital, located at No. 11 Agadez Crescent, Wuse Zone 2, Abuja, while the contact physician is Dr. Michael Eze.
“Due to the urgency of the situation, the hospital has kindly scheduled to receive Mazi Kanu as soon as practicable between today and tomorrow. Your kind cooperation in this regard will be highly appreciated,” the letter added.
SaharaReporters reported that IPOB raised alarm over Nnamdi Kanu’s worsening health, accusing the DSS of endangering his life through poor medical care and warning of grave consequences for Nigeria and the region if his condition deteriorates further.
