The wife of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Uchechi, has visited her husband, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, in the custody of the Directorate of State  Service DSS.

She hailed Senator Ifeanyi Ubah (Anambra South) for facilitating the visit.

Mrs Kanu said since she visited her husband in April, her mind had been at rest while thanking Senator Ubah for being a through Igbo leader.

Kanu had been in the custody of DSS since 2021 after he was renditioned from Kenya.

Before her visit, it was gathered that Mrs Kanu had severally been denied access to her husband.

She approached Senator Ubah, who swiftly facilitated her visit.

While addressing their members on Radio in the United Kingdom on Sunday, Mrs Kanu  thanked Ubah, saying that she knew that a lot of Igbo elites were genuinely concerned about the unlawful incarceration of her husband, and were working silently to help him regain his freedom.

She said: “Let me use this opportunity to thank Senator Ifeanyi Ubah who moved swiftly to facilitate my visit to my husband in DSS custody. I thank you sir.“I thank other Igbo politicians, Governors and political office holders who are concerned about the plight of my husband.

” A lot of these elites are concerned about the unlawful detention of my husband, and are working silently to secure a round table discussion for his release. I’m thankful to them.”

Speaking with The Nation on Monday, Ubah, confirmed the visit and the buttons he pressed  when he learnt that she was finding it difficult to visit him in detention.

“Yes, she was in Nigeria and she approached me and told me that she needed to visit her husband, but was finding it difficult.

“So I immediately intervened. I visited her husband too with her in the company of Ejiofor, their Lawyer,. She met with her husband in the DSS facility on April 16,” Ubah said.
