The Federal Government, on Monday, filed fresh terrorism charges against the embattled leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.

In the amended process it filed before the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, the government increased the counts in the initial charge it preferred against Kanu. Kanu, who has been in detention since his alleged abduction from Kenya and forceful return to Nigeria, faced seven treasonable felony charges, will now enter his fresh plea to 15 amended charges marked FHC/ABJ/CR/383/2015, and signed by the Director of Public Prosecution, DPP, M. B. Abubakar.

The charges were amended barely 24 hours before the scheduled commencement of hearing by trial Justice Binta Nyako.

Charge against their known sponsors of terrorism and their so called 'repentant' terrorists. It is freedom agitators that are now being painted terrorists! By the way can someone please educate me on where repentance is found in Nigeria Criminal Laws?

What is FG smoking over there. ahahahah 9ja for you

What makes him a terrorist the ones killing innocent people are left alone and he fighting for freedom is caught what nonsense country

Apc is just disgracing themselves more and more with this guys issue the more they keep trying to nail the more regretting the ppl who voted them in are looking

Watch this gov use Kanu’s indefinite detention, IPOBs relentless quest to control the narrative with sit-at-home order and the complicit security situation with unknown gun men, DSS and the army; to destabilize the SE economy.

They will file another tomorrow.
