NNAMDI KANU REQUESTS HIS TRIAL BE TRANSFERRED TO THE SOUTHEAST

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, NNAMDI KANU, has insisted that Justice BINTA NYAKO of the Abuja Federal High Court will not handle his case.

On September 24, 2024, KANU had asked Justice NYAKO to ‘hands off’ his trial on grounds of lack of confidence.

Following the call, the trial judge stepped down from Kanu’s case and transferred his case file to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, JOHN TSOHO.

However, KANU during his routine meeting with his legal team led by lead counsel ALOY EJIMAKOR at the Department of State Services, DSS, facility in Abuja, said Justice NYAKO would be disobeying her own order by restarting the case.

He requested that his case be transferred to the Southeast if no judge in Abuja is willing to take up his trial.
