The Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL, the umbrella body of all youth groups in the South-East has warned the Department of State Services, DSS, to desist from torturing the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.

The group said this in response to reports from some media houses alleging that the DSS had subjected the IPOB leader to some inhumane treatment.

Goodluck Ibem, the President General of the coalition, issued the warning via a statement on Sunday.

The statement reads, “If the news making the rounds is true, we call on the DSS to stop any form of maltreatment or torture of Nnamdi Kanu and respect his fundamental human rights.

“The South-East zone is highly tensed up and any action on the part of the DSS to further heighten or increase the already volatile security situation in the zone will not go well for the country.

“Torturing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is counterproductive and will lead the country to a serious security quagmire if not stopped immediately.

“The rendition of Nnamdi Kanu by the Nigerian government has not brought any economic, political or material benefit to Nigeria but rather it has pushed the Nigerian economy into a more hard and tight corner, where if not addressed speedily, will further drive the Nigerian economy to doom.

“It is very unfortunate that millions of Nigerians are dying of hunger, starvation, poverty and poor medical healthCare on daily basis and the Nigerian government is busy spending huge resources on just one man.

“We call on the federal government to tell Nigerians how much resources have been spent so far in the court appearances of Nnamdi Kanu.

“Nigerians will be shocked to their marrows how much has been spent so far for his court appearance despite the fact that we are in a very difficult economic situation”.
