Senator representing Anambra South and governorship candidate of the Young People’s Party (YPP), Ifeanyi Uba has sought the order of the court to visit the leader of the proscribed Independent People of Biafra (IPOB).

Senator Ubah, in his application before the Federal High Court, Abuja Judicial Division, is seeking an order of the court to grant him leave to visit Nnamdi Kanu, (the defendant) as part of his oversight legislative function.

He is also seeking an Order of the court to direct the complainant and/or the Department of State Services (DSS) to allow him to access its detention facility for purposes of visiting Nnamdi Kanu and any other orders or further orders “as the Honourable Court may deem fit to make in the circumstances of the case.”

The application is to be heard on Thursday.

Kanu was arrested last June by the federal government and was subsequently arraigned before
the Federal High Court in Abuja for the continuation of his trial on charges bordering on terrorism, treasonable felony, unlawful possession of firearms and management of an unlawful society.
