“The absence of my husband is mind-bending, it is inexplicable. I am practically a zombie but I am holding up,” Uchechi Okwu-Kanu told IBTimes UK in an exclusive interview. She is the wife of British-Nigerian Nnamdi Kanu, who is standing trial on six counts of treasonable felony charges in Nigeria.
Kanu is one of the leaders of a movement demanding the independence of the Biafran territories forcibly annexed to Nigeria during British colonisation, which ended in 1960. The director of RadioBiafra and head of the Indigenous People of Biafra (Ipob), was arrested in Lagos in October 2015 on conspiracy and terrorism charges, later dropped.
