Terrorism charges: Court Suspends Nnamdi Kanu’s Trial
On Monday, a Federal High Court in Abuja adjourned indefinitely the trial of Biafra nation agitator Nnamdi Kanu on terrorism charges brought by the Federal Government.
At Kanu’s request, Justice Binta Nyako postponed the trial sine die until the Federal Government’s appeal against the Court of Appeal’s October 13 decision exonerating him from terrorism charges was resolved.
The Federal Government’s appeal to the Supreme Court seeking reversal of the Court of Appeal’s decision is currently pending.
Two other cases scheduled for court hearings were also postponed indefinitely for the same reason.
According to Track News, Kanu refused to appear in court on Monday in protest of the federal government’s refusal to release him from detention as ordered by the Court of Appeal on October 13.
