Biafra Controversy: DSS To Detain Nnamdi Kanu For Another 90 Days by exlink10(m): 8:29pm On Nov 24, 2015
The leader of the Biafran agitatiors, Nnamdi Kanu will reportedly spend another 90 days in custody of the Department of State Services (DSS), following an order by a Federal High Court in Abuja. The 90-day extension availed the DSS is to enable further investigation into the allegation of acts of terrorism and financing of terrorism levelled by the government against the Biafran leader.

Mr Moses Idakwo, counsel to the security outfit, disclosed this at Kanu’s trial on Monday, November 23. Idakwo drew the attention of Chief Magistrate Shuaib Usman, to the federal high court order of Justice Adeniyi Ademola, granting further detention of Kanu for another 90 days. He buttressed that the Biafran leader’s continued detention was also owing to his inability to fully meet the requirement for a bail granted him.

According to Premium Times, Shuaibu Usman, had issued an order for the bail of the accused on the condition of presenting a surety of Grade Level 16 with a landed property in Garki or Wuse areas worth N20 million. However, Idakwo asked the magistrate court to step down from the trial of Kanu on the ground that the court lacked power to prosecute terrorism charges.

Kanu’s counsel, Mr Vincent Egechukwu Obeta, objected to the order of the court and the application that the magistrate court steps down from the trial. Obete informed the court about the affidavit before it, noting that the prosecution refused taking the necessary step to confirm the location of the surety’s plot of land.

He said: “If it takes this long to confirm a mere location of a plot that is just next door to us in Abuja here, then we are in trouble.” The Biafran leader was produced in court under heavy security, in compliance with last week’s order by the magistrate court.

That's Christmas, New year.

After the 90 days, his case will be delayed again so he can spend Easter there.



In short those protesting should be ready for morning jog for the next 120 days

So many contradictions! Now who is telling lies?
1. DSS initially said Kali is not with them only for them to produce him yesterday in court!
2. Kalu's lawyers made it public that the bail terms has being met now another story is springing up!
It is well!
