Testifying as the fourth prosecution witness, a DSS operative identified only as “Mr DDD” for security reasons, said Kanu’s broadcasts promoted the enforcement of IPOB’s sit-at-home order through its militant wing, the Eastern Security Network (ESN).
“From my investigation, the defendant’s broadcasts directly contributed to economic paralysis in the South-East,” Mr DDD said while being led in evidence by prosecution counsel Chief Adegboyega Awomolo (SAN).
The operative further alleged that Kanu smuggled a radio transmitter into Nigeria, concealing it among household items to avoid detection by Customs.
The transmitter was allegedly hidden at the Ihiala, Anambra State home of one Benjamin Madubougu.
