Court Orders Nnamdi Kanu to Enter Defence
A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), to enter a defence in his ongoing terrorism trial or be deemed to have waived his right to do so.
Justice James Omotosho issued the order on Tuesday after Kanu failed to enter his defence for the fourth day, following the prosecution's closure of its case and the court's overruling of his no-case submission.
- The court had adjourned till November 4 for Kanu to either file his final written address or open his defence.
- Should Kanu fail to open his defence on November 5, he will be deemed to have waived his right to do so.
