Kanu, facing charges of treason and terrorism, filed a motion seeking transfer to the National Hospital in Abuja for urgent medical care due to his deteriorating health.
Kanu's counsel, Kanu Agabi SAN, emphasized the urgency of the situation, citing Kanu's worsening health condition. The motion was filed as Kanu's health took a troubling turn while in detention since June 2021.
