The group in a statement on Tuesday by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said it was no longer sure of the state of health of Kanu and challenged the Department of State Services to open up and tell the world why it was shielding Kanu from his family and lawyers.
It warned that if anything happened to the IPOB leader, the Federal Government and its security agencies should be held responsible for the bitter consequences of such an avoidable scenario.
