The IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, contends that the charges are incompetent.

The Federal High Court, Abuja, on Thursday, fixed November 10 to hear an application filed by the leader of the proscribed, Nnamdi Kanu, challenging the competence of the treasonable felony charges filed against him by the federal government.

Mrs Nyako also made an order that three people of Mr Kanu’s choice should be allowed to visit him every Thursday. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation had, on Monday, filed fresh amended charges of seven counts against Mr Kanu. The separatist, who was granted bail in April 2017, fled the country after the invasion of his home in Afara-Ukwu, near Umuahia, Abia State, by the military in September that year, a situation one of Mr Kanu’s lawyers, Alloy Ejimakor described as the “rule of self-preservation.”
