Kanu
The Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday ordered the Nigerian Medical Association to, within eight days, constitute a panel of medical experts to assess the health condition of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
In his ruling, Justice James Omotosho ordered the NMA President to submit the committee’s report within eight days for consideration on whether Kanu should be transferred to the National Hospital for treatment.
The judge directed that the committee, among other tasks, should assess the Department of State Services hospital to confirm whether it has the capacity to meet Kanu’s health needs.
Justice Omotosho further ruled that the NMA committee would be at liberty to make use of any hospital in the country for its investigations. Punch
