[TOP STORY] ‘A joke taken too far’ — Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer kicks against FG’s fresh terrorism charge | TheCable

that the federal government added eight counts to the previous terrorism charges filed against Kanu.

The lead counsel said the amended charge is the “worst kind of abuse of legal process”, adding that it was aimed at “needlessly prolonging proceedings in the cause”. “This 15-count amended charge was no doubt brought in bad faith and is aimed at needlessly prolonging proceedings in the cause. The same FGN that brought our client to court is needlessly initiating processes that will delay the trial.

“The parties have fully filed and exchanged processes and arguments on the objection, and the same has been set down for hearing.“Brazenly, a day before the hearing date, and without affording the court the opportunity to listen to arguments on the objection, and take a decision on the objection raised one way or the other.

Filing fresh charges against Nnamdi Kanu not in Nigeria’s interest – LawyerAn Abuja-based human rights lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, says the Federal Government is not acting in the good interest of Nigeria by filing fresh terrorism charges against the embattled leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu. Who said so, he should be punished accordingly. Buhari is the person that suppose to be standing trial. This man lost election in 2011 and in reaction to the loss made his supporters to kill many southern corpers in the north. This same man invited the Fulanis from outside to cause mayhem if GEJ refuse to quit This is a typical example of how country without solution behaves. You leave the positive information given by nnamdi and be attacking him. Is quit unfortunate we have gotten to this level of so called democracy
