Ejimakor had earlier accused the police of firing teargas to disperse demonstrators who had gathered in the nation’s capital.
The protesters converged on Abuja on Monday to demand the release of Kanu, who has been held by the Department of State Services (DSS) since June 2021.
Kanu’s supporters, therefore, embarked on a protest on Monday, calling on the federal government to comply with existing court rulings that ordered his release.
