Former Attorney General of the Federation and the lead defence counsel in the terrorism trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), Kanu Agabi (SAN) has denied a report that officials of the Department of State Services (DSS) on Monday denied him and members of his team access to their client.

Agabi spoke at the resumed hearing in the case on Wednesday while responding to an enquiry by Justice James Omotosho on the veracity of a report attributed to a member of the defence team, Alloy Ejimakor.

According to the judge, Ejimakor posted on one of his social media platforms that the DSS denied the legal team access to the IPOB leader.

While responding, Agabi said none of such happened, blaming Ejimakor for the mix-up and commended the DSS officials whom he said were very respectful and courteous.

Agabi said, “I was not denied access to the defendant. We had arranged to go there with myself, Ikpeazu, Etiaba, Erokoro. But for some reasons, they were not available.

“When I got to the gate around 1pm, they said our name had not arrived. To be fair, they (the DSS officials) showed me enough respect. I said I will come back another date.”

He added that he was surprised and angry when he later learnt that a member of his team uploaded a story online that he was denied access to the defendant.

Further asked by the judge what informed his decision, Ejimakor said he thought Agabi was angry that he was denied access to Kanu when they spoke on the phone.

The ex-AGF countered that insinuation and explained that he got angry because Ejimakor gave him the wrong time for the appointment.
