Abuja, Nigeria – Di Federal High Court don drop bombshell as dem order di Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) to check wetin dey happen with Nnamdi Kanu health. Dis order come after di court talk say Kanu still get right to life; make dem no forget say di guy still dey important for him trial.
Kanu, di leader of di Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), bin don dey face seven-count charges of terrorism since 2015, and him dey hold ground for di detention facility of di DSS since 2021. Na wah! Kanu wey no be criminal from any angle don dey suffer because dem re-arrest am for Kenya, just like dem dey catch small pikin for market.
Di court sit down on Friday as Justice James Omotosho handle di application wey Kanu lawyers carry come, saying di NMA gatz form panel wey go check if di man dey suffer from any medical wahala. E fit get liver and kidney issues, wey no be beans. Dem want make dem shine eye well as dem go investigate di state of di medical facilities wey dey for DSS, whether dem fit handle Kanu health matter or dem dey jinx am.
Dem give di panel just eight days to submit di report, no time to waste! Di law no fit allow Kanu to just dey waste away for custody, na wetin di court dey try talk. Dis whole matter don turn more serious, abeg. Once dem mention Life and Death, na serious business. Dem don even push di initial adjourn date from October 10 to today, September 26, because di health matter no fit wait.
For inside dia filing, di DSS don yan say dem get beta medical facilities for di country, but Kanu own people don come with counter say he don dey suffer from heart condition wey dey threaten his life. As dem dey quench small fire for di DSS side, Kanu lawyers don show say e dey suffer from dangerously low potassium levels, and e no wan dem put him inside public hospital wey no fit secure am.
Looks like di court matter fit turn drama series wey go last for long. Kanu get body, he still dey for ground; but we don see as di Federal Government get plenty things wey dey show say dem no gree hand over am to any easier medical care. Na di serious health condition wey dem dey call him ‘life and death’ matter. No bi juju, e be real wahala.
As di hearing go continue, we dey watch how di drama go unfold, but one thing we fit agree on: Nnamdi Kanu must get proper medical treatment, na wetin di law talk.
