The Court of Appeal ordered Mr Kanu’s release from the custody of the State Security Service (SSS), where the IPOB is being...

It followed an earlier ruling of the trial judge, Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court in Abuja, in April dismissing eight of the 15 amended counts filed against him by the federal government.

The court further said also the Federal High Court failed to examine the findings of the prosecution as it would not have tried Mr Kanu on the grounds that the IPOB leader was not “illegally brought into the country.” The trial judge had ruled that Counts 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14 were incompetent for not disclosing any valid offences against the defendant.

Five of the sustained charges have to do with alleged acts of terrorism, including professing to be a member and leader of IPOB, a proscribed organisation, issuing inciteful and deadly threats against individuals, and issuing directives, among others.

Another defeat to the zoological republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬. In their own court not1967

If this is true, then thank God! I am no IPOB supporter or any separatist but I will not support buhari and his broken justice system that lets islamist terrorists and unknown gunmen go without serious punishment while targeting political dissenters.

BiafranTweets Thank God MNK won them in their own court & ▪︎Not ▪︎Political ▪︎Solution.

The only man who is fighting not just for his ethnic race, but for every indigenous people in Nigeria. He hates no man. But only asking for equity for all free born. He who sent him does not sleep. Think deep on this. 🤔

Congratations to Nnamdi Kanu for getting the much deserved Justice. A true Igbo son and an ardent freedom fighter for the rights of all Igbos. Biafra Risingsun

As long as he don't come boycotting elections in SE

Listen to this Peter Obi's address when he was a governor years ago. Without bias, bigotry mindset and sentiment he's the only competent candidate come 2023!. Many of y'all opposition party supporters know this!. Obidatti2023.

The question is will FG obey the order? They are known for disobedience to rule of law. Now established to be called a government of illegalities or should I say kidnapping government?

Will the government obey this judgement? Let's wait and see.

Wow.. As much as I’ve always believed that Nigeria has failed and deserved to be restructured or disinterested. The individuals in the judiciary system has actually raised more hope that if the right people takes over leadership’s and given the tolls, things might be fixed.

Let there be peace.

PitObi's presidency in the mud. 😂

Now that he is free.He will become a threat to some political parties and politicians in the east.
