Madam Ukamaka Ejezie, popularly known as Mama Biafra, has been released from detention by the Director of State Service (DSS).
It should be recalled that Mama Biafra was arrested when Kanu last appeared in court in Abuja on May 18.
Since Kanu’s parents died in 2020, Mama Biafra had been acting as Kanu’s mother.
Her release has been confirmed by the lead counsel to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Ifeanyi Ejiofor.
While confirming her release, Ejiofor said: “She was arrested on the 18th day of May 2022 outside the court premises, after hearing on Nnamdi Kanu case was concluded on that day in Abuja.
“I am very delighted to inform you all that Mrs Ukamaka Ejezie (Mama Biafra) has regained her freedom. She is now out of the DSS dungeon.
“Thank thee ChukwuOkike Abiama for this huge success. We are not relenting, every prisoner of conscience, including Our indefatigable client, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, will soon regain their freedom.
“We in the legal team, are doing everything legally permissible to make it happen, we are not resting on our oars at all, be assured.”
