 GOVERNMENT OF RIVERS STATE   PRESS STATEMENT  MY DECISION TO WITHDRAW FROM THE RIVERS  STATE  GUBERNATORIAL PRIMARIES  Fellow Rivers People, After deep reflection and extensive consultations with my family, friends, and associates, I have taken the difficult but necessary decision to withdraw from the APC gubernatorial primaries. I do so with a full heart and with a firm commitment to support whoever emerges as the candidate of our great party. Leadership is ultimately about sacrifice. There comes a time when personal ambition must yield to the greater good of the people. Rivers State is bigger than any individual, and at this critical moment, the peace, stability, and unity of our dear state must take precedence over every personal interest.

THERE'S CONSPIRACY FOR ME TO DIE, TRANSFER ME FROM DSS CUSTODY TO KUJE- NNAMDI KANU BEGS COURT. (PHOTO)


 There’s conspiracy for me to die, transfer me from DSS custody to Kuje, Nnamdi Kanu begs court


In a dramatic plea before the Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday, Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), beseeched the court to transfer him to Kuje prison, citing grave health concerns and alleged mistreatment by the Department of State Services (DSS).


Kanu, whose bail application was denied by trial Justice Binta Nyako, expressed serious apprehension about his deteriorating health condition, which he asserted could not be adequately addressed within the confines of his current detention center.


Addressing the court from the dock, Kanu revealed the severity of his health challenges, particularly regarding his heart condition, which he claimed had begun to manifest physically, notably in his swollen feet.


He lamented the lack of proper medical facilities at the DSS facility, emphasizing his urgent need for medical attention.


“People will come to see me; they will not allow them. They don’t have the medical facility. I have congestive heart failure; they are patching me up. My foot is swollen. I asked them to conduct surgery, and they said they couldn’t,” Kanu disclosed to the court.


Expressing grave concern over his treatment and the alleged conspiracy to prolong his detention, Kanu reiterated his plea to be transferred to Kuje prison, where he believes he would receive better medical care and fair treatment.


“There is a conspiracy for me to die in detention. I want to be transferred to Kuje,” Kanu implored the court, highlighting the urgency of his situation.


Kanu is currently facing a seven-count treasonable felony charge leveled against him by the Federal Government.


Despite a previous quashing of the charges and an order for his release by the Court of Appeal, subsequent legal proceedings initiated by the government have led to the resumption of his trial as mandated by the Supreme Court.
