The trial of Nnamdi Kanu, Director of Radio Biafra, suffered a setback on Tuesday due to the absence of Magistrate Shuaibu Usman of the Wuse Zone 2 Senior Magistrates’ Court, Abuja. Kanu is standing trial on a three-count charge of criminal conspiracy, intimidation and belonging to unlawful society, to which he pleaded not guilty.
The case which had earlier been fixed for ruling did not hold due to the absence of the magistrate in court. No reason was given by the court on why the magistrate did not sit. Speaking to newsmen at the court premises, the defendant’s lawyer, Mr Vincent Obetta said all efforts to reach the magistrate on phone were not successful.
Obetta appealed to the prosecution, the Department of State Service (DSS), to obey the subsisting order of the court to transfer his client to prison custody to enable him have access to him. “DSS has refused to obey the court order to transfer my client to prison custody. “I call on the trial judge to order the DSS to transfer my client to prison custody.
“The DSS has flouted the court order which granted my client bail since Oct. 19,’’ he said. At the last sitting on Nov. 23, the DSS had requested the court to discontinue trial. Prosecution counsel, Moses Idakwo, had informed the court that after the arraignment of the defendant, the complainant stumbled on some facts which took the matter out of the jurisdiction of the magistrates’ court.
According to him, the complainant found out that the accused was involved in terrorism and has been financing it. Idakwo said that the DSS had also obtained an order from the Federal High Court, Abuja, dated Nov.10, to detain the accused in its custody for 90 days.
Obetta, had objected to the application by the DSS and prayed the court not to discontinue the case. He had argued that the prosecution did not present any information from the Attorney-General of Federation who had the authority to approve such.
The magistrate had adjourned the matter for ruling till Dec. 1.

Chukwu Okike Abiama shall give us victory

Living4christ:


Who told you we don't own it, we have conquered and claim our portion, we are not dragging lagos with the yoruba(and we know lagos is no man's land, you just immigrated to it) we are only claiming control of our land and our land's resources.

We own Biafra land as we have claimed it.

sukkot:
the land is owned by the federal government. you do not own the land. you just live there. federal government paid for that land during independence from the british. they bought back the whole nigeria from colonialism. you own nothing. if you dont like how the federal government does its business you have to go and look for another land to conquer. its simple

Living4christ:


Even though the hausas and yorubas sell all their children they can't buy Biafra land, come and claim it na.

Living4christ:


As a matter of fact nobody owns any land from the beginning, as nobody come out of the womb with a portion of land written in his hand. "It is Conquer and rule"

Lol.. They there dey deceive yourself. Who are you guys going to fight? The Nigerian government?Lol.. Walahi army go use boko haram anger on una. I don't know why you people don't learn from your past mistakes Hmmm.

sukkot:
how can you the igbos be in the region when yoruba had empire that almost covered the whole of west africa and hausa had empire that almost covered the whole of north africa ? you igbos have no empire. you are just a ragtag bunch of immigrants who moved to that part of nigeria after yorubas and hausas have established empires. this is why you can never find igbo outside of the east but you can find yoruba in togo and benin and sierra leone and you can find hausa in niger etc. point being you igbos are on yoruba and hausa land. if you dont like living on that land amongst yorubas and hausas YOU HAVE TO MOVE BACK TO WHERE YOU MIGRATED FROM AROUND 70 AD WHICH IS NORTH-EAST AFRICA. AM I CLEAR TO YOU NOW ? I KNOW IGBO HISTORY MORE THAN ANY OF YOU AND I KNOW WHERE YOU CAME FROM. YOU DO NOT BELONG IN NIGERIA. YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY THAT THEY GAVE YOU LAND TO LIVE WHEN YOU MIGRATED TO THE NIGERIAN REGION. AND NOW YOU WANT TO BITE THE HAND THAT FED YOU

This was just the exact route through which Boko Haram escalated to something bigger.

They arrested their leader and killed him.

Nigeria always tend to forget history #FreeNnamdiKanu

sukkot:
but you igbos do not belong in nigeria. you migrated to nigeria like 2000 years ago. so if you want biafra you have to migrate back to israel region to actualize your biafra. the nigerian land does not belong to you. you are an immigrant to that land. you belong in north-east africa ( israel region ). research your trajectory and itinerary over the past 2000 years and you will see you migrated to nigeria from north-east africa. point being if you dont like nigeria you have to move out of nigeria and go and actualize biafra somewhere else because you are an immigrant to the land you call biafra today. you dont like being in same country with yoruba hausa and fulani you have to move because the land is not yours. so it is your decision to make.

Hizzy:

hahaha na waooooo so IGBOs are now migrants and Yoruba and Hausa are the owners of Nigeria hehehe eeeee so GOD molded Yorubas and Hausas in nigeria and told them to occupy Nigeria

Kachisbarbie:
Is that why they blocked roads in aba, thereby delaying my lunch?
They better focus on their shops in Ariaria, this na season.
The last time I checked, their leader isn't detained in Abia State,neither is his trial being held here. They should trek to Abuja.

Your assertion is wrong. You are talking about a country and not a kingdom.

Why do you think governments (States & Federal) compensate those they take over their lands during construction, for example?

Their land is not even the real issue. I believe the reason FG is reluctant to grant them their wish is because everything about Nigeria will have to be redefined including maps, flags, logos, constitution, military, finance, policy, history, and lots more. And 2yrs is too small to "reset" a nation of over 50yrs with over 170million people.

The one I guess FG dreads is other agitated sections of the country towing similar path once Biafra is allowed. Because it's as good as kissing Nigeria goodbye.

So I think both Biafra and the "leftover" or "new" Nigeria will not remain the same if this secession is attained in the rough manner both parties are going about it.

Kestolovee95:


Hairy baboon. Aw far with your bear-bear. lmao!

demielvis:

Why do you think they still protest even when the nigerian police shoot and kill them?

Why do you think they say Biafra or Death?

The matter has already escalated especially with today's happenings.
They know what they want and they're not gonna back down until they get it.

We own Biafra land as we have claimed it.

You didn't answer the question. How is the dada you have as bear-bear. God wanted to make you a hairy baboon, then changed his mind at the last minute. It is evident you didn't evolve properly--> Hirsutism + Mental retardation. Anyway i'm on ground here in Biafraland flying the Biafran flag.

Carry your trolling to someone who has your time, onye ara and go and pet your own silverback ape of a mentally retardded sister who didn't evolve properly.
