Nnamdi Kanu’s Wife Reacts To Husband’s Apology To Justice, Gives Reasons

Nnamdi Kanu’s wife reacts to husband’s apology to justice, gives reasons. Uchechi Kanu, the wife to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has explained why her husband apologised to Justice Binta Nyako over his outburst during his trial.

The IPOB leader’s wife said the status of Kanu Agabi, the new counsel for Kanu demanded that some of the events that took place during the trial under Justice Nyako be addressed.

According to Uchechi, her husband’s encounter with Nyako and his subsequent reaction shook the foundations of Nigeria’s judiciary.

Her words, “In court today, my husband, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, acknowledged the necessity for Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN, the new lead counsel, to address the court of Justice James Omotosho regarding what transpired at Binta Nyako’s court, which shook the foundations of the Nigerian judiciary.”

She stated that there was need for the new counsel, Kanu Agabi (SAN) to address these issue to ease off tension over the already ruffled feathers.

“These clarifications were duly delivered by Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN—a towering figure, twice Attorney-General, twice Minister of Justice, and a former Senator.

“Chief Agabi, stepping into Onyendu’s brief, acted to smooth over the ruffled feathers in certain segments of the bar and bench, caused by Onyendu’s legitimate, anger-fueled outbursts against Justice Binta Nyako’s court, which led to her recusal,” she added.

Uchechi added that the new lead counsel made it clear that he could not represent Kanu effectively without restoring decorum in the court.

In addition to Agabi’s apology on behalf of the IPOB leader, the newly appointed judge, Justice James Omotosho also apologised for the prolonged delays in his trial.

“Chief Agabi’s intervention was strategic, balancing Onyendu’s fury with the dignity of the court,” Uchechi said.

NNPC Commissions, Hands Over Rehabilitated Wards To National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi

In keeping with its commitment to impact positively on the lives of Nigerians, NNPC Limited has commissioned and handed over three units of 100-bed capacity wards it rehabilitated as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility to the management of the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi, Lagos.

The intervention carried out by the NNPC Foundation Ltd./Gte., the Corporate Social Responsibility arm of NNPC Limited, involved the rehabilitation and upgrade of Wards G, H, and J, complete with the installation of new beds and the introduction of a central medical gas system designed to enhance the standard of care provided by the hospital.

The rehabilitation also included the replacement of roofing and ceiling of the Wards, upgrade of electrical and mechanical systems, and installation of new vinyl floors in all three wards.

Prior to the intervention, the wards were in a state that limited their use, which in turn constrained the hospital’s in-patient care capacity.

Speaking at the commissioning and handover ceremony, the Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari, explained that the concept of profitability in NNPC Limited is not restricted to increase in production and revenue alone, as it embraces the level of social impact the company makes.

The GCEO, who was represented by the Chief Financial Officer, Adedapo Segun, said the Company is proud of the rehabilitation and upgrade work done in the hospital’s wards, because of its immense social impact.

On her part, Managing Director of NNPC Foundation, Emmanuella Arukwe, said through the intervention, NNPC Foundation has helped to strengthen a facility that has served Nigerians for many decades.

“Beyond the immediate benefits, this effort reflects the role NNPC Foundation plays as the social impact arm of NNPC Limited. Our focus remains on practical interventions that improve lives and align with national priorities in healthcare”, she stated.

Providing further view into the project, the Medical Director of the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi, Dr. Wakeel Lawal, said the Management was constrained by the dire situation of the facilities to write to NNPC Foundation for intervention.

He expressed gratitude to the Management of NNPC Limited for granting the request and delivering an outstanding transformation in bringing the wards to international standards, stressing that what NNPC Limited has done goes beyond rehabilitation. It represents a renewal of hope. The commissioning and handover was witnessed by NNPC Ltd.’s Executive Vice President – Business Services, Mrs Sophia Mbakwe.
