It’s sweet freedom for the self-acclaimed leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, as he leaves Kuje Prison today, after meeting his bail conditions.

He is reported to have met his bail conditions, with Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe standing as surety.

As at 6:30pm, he was sighted at the Federal High Court Abuja, with his sureties, perfecting the bail.

On Tuesday, Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, Abuja, granted Kanu bail on three conditions, one of which was that he must present three sureties, one of whom must be a serving Senator, a Jewish high priest, and a highly respected Nigerian.

As he leaves the court today, he is not expected to be in any gathering of more than 10 people. He is also not expected to grant press of any kind.

Others who stood as surety with Kanu, include; Immanuu El-shalom, an Igbo Jewish leader, and Tochukwu Uchendu, a businessman.

Kanu is facing charges of treasonable felony brought against him, by the Federal Government. He has been in detention since late 2015.
