A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has
adjourned the trial of the leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi
Kanu, until October 17. No reason was
given for the adjournment but there are
speculations that the adjournment may be
unconnected with the fact that the Federal
High Court has begun its annual vacation.
Kanu is being tried alongside three others,
David Nwawuisi, Benjamin Madubugwu
and Chidiebere Onwudiwe, for treasonable
offence.
He was arrested in October 2015 and held
in prison until April 28th this year when he
was released after he was granted bail by
Justice Binta Nyako. Part of his bail
conditions was that he must avoid being
seen in any gathering of more than 10
persons.
