Nnamdi Kanu finally leaves Kuje prison‎

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has been released from the Kuje Prison in Abuja.

Kanu was freed after meeting the bail conditions granted him by a Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday.

His lawyer, Mr. Ifeanyi Ejiofor confirmed this to Punch on Friday.

Ejiofor said his client met all outstanding conditions on Friday and was released shortly after all necessary documents were signed by the trial judge.

“Nnamdi Kanu left the prison at about 5pm after meeting the bail conditions,” Ejiofor said.

Justice Nyako of the High Court had on Tuesday granted bail to Kanu on health grounds.‎

The judge, however, barred the IPOB leader from granting press interview while on bail.

Walking out of the prison premises, the IPOB leader was caught in a video footage saying goodbye to some prison warders.

He also had a group picture with some friends and family members.
