You can’t dictate your trial procedure, Fed Govt tells Kanu

Prosecuting lawyer Adegboyega Awomolo averred that no defendant has the right to dictate to court how his prosecution would be conducted in a criminal matter.

Ejimakor argued that as against the claim by the prosecution, the court was misled to revoke the bail because Kanu did not jump bail or breach any of the conditions for the bail.The lawyer averred that his client had to leave the country when the military allegedly invaded his house to avoid being killed.

The IPOB leader prayed the court to issue an order that would give his lawyers unhindered access to him to prepare for his defence. Awomolo recalled that Kanu was once granted bail by the same court, but he jumped the bail by escaping out of the country under false claims.
