When questioned by the Department of State Services (DSS) about associates, Kanu insisted he worked alone and personally handled all Radio Biafra broadcasts.
He said he did not collaborate with any external individuals in running the affairs of the movement’s communication channels.
Meanwhile, the presiding judge ordered that a video recording of Kanu’s interrogation session with the DSS be played in open court as part of the ongoing trial.
