As the trial of the rearrested leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, resumes Monday at the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, Alex Enumah examines issues likely to play up in and outside the courtroom Justice Binta Nyako of the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, late June fixed July 26 to continue the trial of the secessionist leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, to enable him to meet with his lawyer. This is in preparation for the continuation of the trial, which started before the court in 2016. Kanu and four orders were standing trial on an amended six-count criminal charge bordering on terrorism, treasonable felony, among others, until 2017, when he fled the country a few months after he was granted bail on health grounds. Following that, the federal government applied to separate Kanu’s trial from others (Nyako, in a subsequent ruling on February 20, 2018, severed the trial of Kanu from the three others), pending his rearrest as the court had already issued a bench warrant against him.
