After Weeks In Detention DSS Finally Releases Mama Biafra

The Department of State Services (DSS) has released Ukamaka Ejezie, popularly called Mama Biafra, who is said to be the foster mother of the detained leader of outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

Naija News reports that Mama Biafra, who has been in the DSS detention for several weeks, on Sunday regained her freedom from the custody of security agencies.

Mama Biafra’s release was confirmed in a statement by Nnamdi Kanu’s lead counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor.

He said, “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 prisoners 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.
Forward ever and backward never!
We move.”

Naija News recalls that the DSS arrested the septuagenarian during Nnamdi Kanu’s last court appearance in Abuja on May 18.

The woman had acted as his mother since his parents died in 2020.
