Despite Justice Binta Nyako ordering the Department of State Service (DSS) to allow Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to change his cloth, the Biafra activist wore the same outfit.

Naija News reports that in photos obtained from BBC ahead of the commencement of Kanu’s trial on Wednesday, the IPOB leader is seen wearing the same Fendi outside the judge asked him to change.

Recall that during the court sitting on Tuesday, the new lead counsel to the IPOB leader, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), had complained that the DSS is still treating his client with disdain in its custody.

The Senior Advocate of Nigeria stated that the IPOB leader is being treated poorly by DSS operative and being kept in solitary confinement in the custody of the secret police.

She stated that the Biafra agitator should not appear in the Fendi outfit during his next appearance on Wednesday (Wednesday), reiterating her previous order that Kanu should be allowed the maximum comfort possible.

Justice Nyako directed the DSS to allow Kanu to have a bath whenever he wants to, change his clothes, eat properly and practice his faith.

“I don’t want to see him in these clothes again. This one is almost off-white. Also, make sure that you allow him to exercise,” she said.
