Okonkwo, who was clad in a lawyer’s garb, was rumoured to be part of Kanu’s defense team but he shortly thereafter came out to debunk the reports.

“I had a different matter at the same court where he was arraigned and we met at the Court by chance. Everybody recognised my presence and in my usual fashion, I greeted everyone”, the actor had said.
