Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has adjourned the trial of
the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu until October 21, 2021.

Justice Nyako entered the court room at 11.10am on Monday, but Kanu was nowhere to be found. She then adjourned the trial citing the IPOB leader’s absence. The judge also said the court’s vacation started on Monday.

Justice Nyako said she expects the Department of State Services (DSS) to provide Kanu in Court by October 21 2021.

Meanwhile, former Governor of Anambra State governor, Chief Chukwuemeka Ezeife and other Igbo leaders were present in court.

Prime Business Africa had reported that Ezeife was appointed to lead the delegation of Ohanaeze Ndigbo by the President General of the apex Igbo socio-cultural group, H.E. Prof George Obiozor.
