The Federal Government, on Monday, November 14, resumed the trial of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, on terrorism charges brought against him.
The trial will centre only on seven out of 15 count charges sustained against Kanu by Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Justice Binta Nyako put off the trial sine die at the instance of Kanu pending the resolution of the Federal Government’s appeal against the October 13 judgment of the Court of Appeal that discharged him from the terrorism charges.
The court adjourned indefinitely the trial.
Meanwhile, Kanu refused to appear before the Federal High Court on Monday.
The refusal to honour the high court was conveyed to Justice Nyako by the Federal Government’s counsel, Mohammed Abubakar.
