The Federal High Court, Abuja, has warned against further delays in the suit filed by the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra , Nnamdi Kanu, against the State Security Services .
Mr Awo requested more time to file a response to a filing served on him by Mr Kanu’s lawyer, Mike Ozekhome. The Court of Appeal in Abuja dismissed the charges against the IPOB leader in a judgement last year, but later gave permission allowing SSS to continue detaining him, pending the federal government’s appeal at the Supreme Court.for the hearing of the case.
It argued that there was a subsisting judgement of a sister court delivered by Taiwo Taiwo on 3 June 2022 in suit number: FHC/ABJ/CS/1585/2021 between Kanu and DG of SSS and two others, wherein the court dealt substantially with the issue of allowing the IPOB leader access to his personal physician. After Mr Awo applied for an order for the extension of time to file their processes, Mr Ozekhome prayed for a consequential order deeming their further affidavit as duly filed. The court granted both requests.
