In a disturbing report gathered by Family Writers Press International, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is set to undergo another surgery after a preliminary diagnosis conducted by his personal doctor in DSS facility.
This was gathered from the update made on 31st March, 2024 by Bar. Maxwell Opara, Lawyer to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, via his official Facebook page, disclosed that he visited Mazi Nnamdi Kanu alongside his personal doctor in DSS facility. He noted, after official introductions to DSS protocols, the physician embarked on a preliminary examination on Mazi Nnamdi Kanu health.
Below are excerpts of the update.
“A few weeks ago, MNK asked us to get a private consultant physician to come and review his medical records and personally handle his health. Based on that, we were able to get an independent consultant physician.
On Thursday, March 28, 2024, I took the doctor to the DSS Headquarters in Abuja. A few minutes upon our arrival in the office of the Deputy Director of Investigation of DSS, MNK was brought out of the detention room”
“The Deputy Director asked Barr. I. A. Awo, the counsel to DSS, to introduce the matter; he simply said that it was in line with the court order, which said that MNK is entitled to a medical practitioner of his choice, and as a result of that, MNK legal team led by Maxwell Opara, Esq., was there with the consultant physician”, he says.
“Everyone thereat was allowed to introduce himself, and thereafter, MNK introduced the doctor to the DSS as his personal doctor, who will be coordinating other medical specialists to handle his medical issues”
“The new doctor carried out an interim medical examination and interview with MNK, and MNK stated thus: -that he easily gets tired or loses strength, and in most cases, it will look as if he wants to collapse as his BP is always high. He has swollen bumps at his armpits, which gave him regular pain and constant headaches. He experienced constant ringing sensations in his ears, which made him very uncomfortable, especially at night. He said that he started having this feeling as a result of the torture he received from Kenyan police when he was unlawfully arrested and detained for nine days before he was unlawfully brought to Nigeria. Having listened to him, the doctor quickly checked his BP and discovered that it was really high. The doctor advised that he will urgently get a cardiologist to review him and come up with a report, and definitely MNK may undergo surgery. Let’s keep praying for the freedom fighter, and we will continue to update you as we progress” he concludes.
Recall that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu had on his last court appearance asked the Federal High Court to grant him bail, or s house arrest on a health emergency basis, so he could trest himself adequately. Unfortunately, Binta Nyako denied him bail despite his failing health conditions, citing flight risks.
