Mrs. Ngozi Umeadi, who has been in detention for over two years
at Suleja Prison in Niger State over alleged membership of the Indigenous
People of Biafra, was on Monday released.
Barr Aloy Ejimakor, special counsel to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, in a
reaction, described Umeadi as a prisoner of conscience. He wrote, “Kudos to
#MNK, the Kanu family, her frontline lawyer, Barr Mandela Umegborogu & the
others who made it happen. #TeamWork.”
Our correspondent
reported that Mrs. Umeadi’s bail conditions were met last Friday, but it was too
late to affect her formal release, according to her counsel, Barr Prince
Mandela Umez, a member of the legal team of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Mrs. Umeadi, a mother of
five, hails from Anambra State. She was granted bail last December, with
strident conditions, making her unable to meet them.
