The family of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has issued a 14-day ultimatum to Finland-based self-acclaimed discipline of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Mazi Simon Ekpa, to cease using the name or the image of Kanu in his broadcasts or fundraise.

Kanu’s letter in a letter by its Attorney, Magnus Jonsson, dated May 17, 2022, threatened to commence legal action against Ekpa if he failed to comply with the demands of the letter.
