Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, has pleaded not guilty to the Federal Government of Nigeria’s 15-count allegation against him.
However, Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High court Abuja has revealed that the Kanu’s trial which has adjourned to 16th of February by 1 pm was to consider an application to squash his (Nnadi Kanu) charges rebelled against him.
The judge also said that the prosecution must serve in the Defence lawyer 5 days before hearing.
Recall Mr Kanu refused to enter a plea yesterday because he had not been briefed on the new charges leveled against him.
Mike Ozekhome, Kanu’s primary counsel, had objected to his client’s re-arrest, claiming that they had only been served on Monday and had no time to advise the client.
As a result, the case was adjourned to February 16, 2022.
