The President of the forum, Mallam Shettima Yerima, in an interview with The Punch, said Kanu has gone into hiding and is planning to flee Nigeria through the Cameroonian borders.
“We are aware that he is scheming to find a way of escape through Cameroonian borders, which is easier for him to move and run back to where he belongs.
“He is on his way looking for how to run to Cameroon and that we are aware from our intelligence reports," Yerima said.
