Court adjourns Nnamdi Kanu’s case till February 16
The federal high court sitting in Abuja has adjourned till February 16, 2022, the case of Nnamdi Kanu.
Judge Binta Nyako adjourned the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to February 16 by 1 pm to consider the application to squash the charges.
During Wednesday’s court case, Nnamdi Kanu denied committing any of the 15-count terrorism charges brought against him by the Federal Government.
He made the denial when the charges were read to him by the Registrar of the court, Mr A. O. Yahaya.
Following an absence of objection, the Federal High Court in Abuja ordered that Kanu take his plea in the 15 counts of terrorism charges brought against him.
Justice Binta Nyako issued the order following the request of the Federal Government lawyer, Mr Shuaib Labaran, and no objection by Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) standing for Kanu.
Meanwhile, the Federal Government has confirmed that the Department of the State Service (DSS) has provided Kanu with an orthopedic mattress, pillows, blankets among others in compliance with the court order.
Labaran conveyed the news to Justice Nyako at the resumption of Kanu’s arraignment.
