Report has it that leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has been sighted by security agents in Ghana.
According to TheCable, an online medium, Kanu was ferried to the Niger Delta creeks by militants at the height of Python Dance II, from where he found his way to Ghana by sea.
He is regularly seen at Kenzo Bar and IBG saloon in Accra, disguised in fez cap and usually in company of his wife, Uchechi.
Kanu is said to live at an area called Cantonment, also in Accra, at an estate called “Arabella.”
He regularly patronizes smoked meat, called Suya in Hausa language at suya joints in remote parts of the city.
Kanu was last seen in public in September 2017 before the military launched Operation Python Dance II — apparently to quell the agitation for the breakaway of south-east from Nigeria.
There has been allegation by his followers that he was arrested and might have been killed. At some point, Orji Uzor Kalu, former governor of Abia state, said Kanu was in London.
His court trial for treason has stalled and Enyinnaya Abaribe, the senator who served as Kanu’s surety when he was granted bail after spending 18 months in detention, has sought to be discharged from the obligation after his disappearance.
His brother once asked the military to release his “dead body” if he had been killed. [myad]
