The Chief Whip of the Senate, Orji Uzor Kalu has described the report linking him to the starvation of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu in the custody of the Department of State Services as a lie and cheap propaganda.
This is coming after the family of the IPOB leader accused the secret police of denying their son food in its custody.
Nnamdi Kanu’s brother, Prince Kanu Meme in a statement also accused DSS of denying the IPOB leader his medical report after taking his blood more than 21 times.
Kalu in his reaction to the report charged people to disregard the lie launched to create hatred between him and his brothers.
Kalu said: “A friend said the statement below is been circulated on social media and I urge you to please ignore it as it’s a big fat lie and cheap propaganda.
“The circulating lie says, “When Senator Orji Uzor Kalu visited DSS and Mazi Nnamdi, he told the DSS to stop giving Nnamdi Kanu food and Nnamdi Kanu has been living without food since then ”
“My brief take is that there is nothing one would do that person won’t talk about. If you don’t visit, they will blame you for not visiting. If you visit, they will still blame you. But more sympathetic to me is those that believe and propagate any cock and bull story. If the agenda is to create hatred between me and my brothers, it’s a waste of time because my people love me and I love them too. I will always respond to hate with love.”
Recall that the former Governor of Abia State visited Kanu at the DSS detention last week.
