Again and Kanu<\/p>\n
By Amah<\/p>\n
Kindly share:<\/p>\n
Former Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and lead defence lawyer in the terrorism trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of IPOB, Kanu Agabi (SAN) has denied report that he and members of\u00a0 his team were denied access to their client on Tuesday by officials of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Abuja.<\/p>\n
Agabi spoke at the resumed hearing in the case on Wednesday while responding to an enquiry by Justice James Omotosho on the information attributed to a member of the defence team, Alloy Ejimakor was true.<\/p>\n
According to the judge, Ejimakor posted on one of\u00a0 his social media platforms that the DSS denied Kanu\u2019s legal team access to him.<\/p>\n
While responding, Agabi said none of such happened.<\/p>\n
He blamed Ejimakor for the mix-up and commended the conduct of the DSS officials whom he said were very respectful and courteous.<\/p>\n
Agabi said: \u201cI was not denied access to the defendant. We had arranged to go there with myself, Ikpeazu, Etiaba, Erokoro. But for some reasons, they were not available.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I got to the gate around 1pm, they said our name had not arrived. To be fair, they (the DSS officials) showed me enough respect. I said I will come back another date,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He added that he was surprised and became angry when he learnt that member of his\u00a0 team went to put on the internet that he was not allowed access to the defenfant.<\/p>\n
When asked by the judge what informed his decision, Ejimakor said he thought Agabi was angry that he was denied access to Kanu when they spoke on the phone, a position the ex-AGF countered and\u00a0 explained that he got angry because Ejimakor gave him the wrong time for the appointment.<\/p>\n
