Court Adjourns Nnamdi Kanu’s Case Against Federal Govt.

Justice KCJ Okereke of the Abia State High Court, Umuahia, has adjourned the case of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu against the Federal Government.

Before this time, Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, had filed an ex parte motion asking the court to make an interim order of the release of Kanu to attend to his health in any medical facility of his choice in Nigeria, pending the hearing of his case.

He required an apology from the federal government and ₦5 billion damages for the violation of his fundamental rights.

Its ruling, the court adjourned the case till October 7 for further hearing due to the inability of the Federal Government, the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Nigerian Army to appear in court.

While addressing the media after the court proceedings, Ejimakor expressed confidence that the court will uphold the law by enforcing Kanu’s human rights.

He added that the restoration of Kanu’s constitutional rights will show that the court is the last hope of the common man.
