The Department of State Services (DSS) says Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has reacted to the report making the rounds on social media that the detained IPOB leader is being maltreated in its custody.

Peter Afunanya, DSS spokesperson, made the clarification at a press briefing on Tuesday in Abuja.

IPOB had alleged that Kanu is denied food and change of clothing in custody.

Afunanya said Kanu enjoys the best treatment in custody as it is obtainable anywhere in the country.

“The service denies all the inciting allegations by IPOB and state that Nnamdi Kanu is not in a anyway maltreated in custody,” Afunanya said.

“Adequate attention is paid to Kanu’s health. He has unhindered access to the best medical care and doctors.

“The story of Kanu being starved is fallacious. He could not have been starved as he enjoys meals of his choice. That he is not allowed change of clothing is also false. He is regularly allowed change of clothing as against what is presented to the public by IPOB propagandists.

“It is unfortunate that some elements decided to use outright misinformation to represent the state of affairs.”
