Uchechi recently granted an interview on her husband’s reasons for campaigning for Biafra terming him ‘a prisoner of conscience.’
Kanu is currently being held by the Department of State Security (DSS) on charges of treason.
President Muhammadu Buhari has ruled out the likelihood of the Biafra leader being freed on bail after revealing that he came into Nigeria without a passport.
Kanu was arrested in October and supposedly granted bail but he was never freed.
His continued detention has led his followers to launch protests in various part of the country to demand his freedom.
