A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has adjourned further proceedings in the case against the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, till Wednesday.
Today, Tuesday’s adjournment followed Kanu’s complaints that the Federal Government failed to promptly serve him the fresh 15 amended charges it brought before the court.
Join our WhatsApp ChannelKanu, through his team of lawyers led by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Mike Ozekhome, accused the further Federal Government of denying him the necessary facility to defend the charge against him.
Ozekhome hinted the court that the amended charges were served on them barely 24 hours to the scheduled hearing.
According to him, “My Lord, the proposed amended charges were served on us yesterday (Monday) evening. As I speak to you, my lord, the defendant, who was just brought in, has not even seen the charges which he is being told to enter his plea.
“With due respect, that is not justice. It is ambushing. I know that the Administration of Criminal Justice Act allows the Federal Government to amend, but this is the sixth amendment they are making, and each time they do it, they serve us a day to the hearing, just to frustrate the trial.”
