Alloy Ejimakor, the Lead Counsel of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has identified a major hindrance to properly preparing the agitator's defence against charges with the death penalty.

Alloy Ejimakor , the Lead Counsel of Nnamdi Kanu , leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB , has identified a major hindrance to properly preparing the agitator's defence against charges with the death penalty. Ejimakor said he and his team have not been granted enough access to confer with Kanu towards preparing a defence against charges that carry the death penalty.

'Our position conforms with the law. Section 36 of the Nigerian constitution says unless a fair hearing can be guaranteed no Nigerian should be subjected to any trial.' The IPOB leader is facing charges of terrorism before the Justice Binta Nyako-led Federal High Court. During yesterday's proceedings, Ejimakor had demanded 'fair hearing safeguards' for his client before the actual trial of terrorism begins.
