“We heard that the idea is to move him away from the South-East. We have made efforts to see him, but the DSS has not granted us access. Even the lawyers have not been allowed to reach him."

It would be recalled that the movie veteran was assaulted by men of the Nigeria Army on Thursday, October 7, 2021, after he was spotted wearing a Biafran flag outfit.

He was detained and later released.

However, he was immediately arrested by men of the DSS after his release for the army's custody.
