The detained leader of the Biafra nation agitators, Nnamdi Kanu will today, Monday, at the Federal High Court in Abuja know his fate in his fresh request for restoration of his revoked bail and the removal from the custody of the Department of State Services to a house arrest or prison custody. Justice Binta Fatimat Nyako will in the afternoon decide the fate of Kanu in a ruling billed to be delivered in respect of the request.
However, the federal government’s legal team, led by Adegboyega Awomolo, SAN, opposed granting of all the requests made by Kanu. The senior lawyer said in criminal matters, no defendant has the right to dictate to the court how his prosecution would be conducted. Awomolo told the court that Kanu was once admitted to bail but breached the bail by escaping out of the country under false claims.
