According to him, his outfit is just a dress with a rising sun and not anyway representing the Eastern Security Network, ESN.
He said: “What I’m wearing is a civil dress. This is not Biafran wear it is a rising sun and not eastern security outfit, ESN . I know where to go with this outfit.
“This sun on the dress I’m wearing is just a rising sun because I believe I must rise.
