Federal High Court in Abuja adjourns trials of leaders of the Indigenous people of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi kanu to October 21st.
When the DSS fails to appear in court to produce Nnamdi Kanu, the judge adjourns the case until October.
The trial of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, has been delayed by the Federal High Court in Abuja (IPOB).
On Monday, when the resumed hearings in the Federal Capital Territory, Justice Binta Nyako delayed the trial (FCT).
The trial was delayed after Kanu was not produced in court by the Department of State Services (DSS).
Justice Nyako chastised the security team’s actions, noting that she had remained in her chambers while waiting for the defendant to appear in court.
She urged the prosecution to be meticulous with dates whenever she provided them, emphasizing the importance of Kanu’s presence at his trial.
Meanwhile, the Department of State Security, DSS has continued to crack down on individuals showing solidarity for the Nnamdi Kanu trial at the court premises.
Kanu is facing an 11-count charge of treason, treasonable felony, terrorism and illegal possession of firearms, among others.
