Aloy Ejimakor, the Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Saturday said the Supreme Court has settled the controversy that the agitator never jumped bail.

Ejimakor said the Supreme Court also clarified that Kanu’s bail should not have been revoked.

Recall that in 2017, Justice Binta Nyako of a Federal High Court in Abuja had granted Kanu bail.

Upon his release, a military invasion of his ancestral home in Umuahia, Abia State, in September 2017, forced into exile, hence he did not attend his trial on the next scheduled date and thereafter.

From then till June 2021 when he was transferred from Kenya to Nigeria, there has been a robust public debate as to whether he jumped bail or not.

But, the Appeal Court had discharged and acquitted Kanu of all terrorism charges.

This judgment was later overturned by the Supreme Court which transferred the case back to the Federal High Court.

In the Certified True Copy of the judgment delivered in December 2023, the apex court declared that Kanu did not jump bail.

Commenting on this, Ejimakor, said: “As Of Counsel, I had joined in this debate and always made it clear that Nnamdi Kanu, in the unique circumstance of the military invasion, did not jump bail. I had also written well-publicized legal treatises, maintaining that this self-evident truth will be proved and confirmed in Court in due course of time.”

He said the first judicial confirmation came in January 2022 when, in a landmark judgment, the High Court of Abia State declared that the said military invasion was a flagrant violation of Kanu’s constitutional rights, consequent upon the Court awarded him N1 billion in damages and public apology.

He said: “Following this judgment, I had issued a public Legal Notice warning all and sundry to thenceforth cease and desist from peddling the falsehood that Nnamdi Kanu had jumped bail. Whereas, vast majorities of the mainstream and social media had complied, some malicious traducers and elements from the federal government persisted with the defamatory bail-jumping narrative.

“In summation, in addition to ruling that Nnamdi Kanu never jumped bail, the Supreme Court also held that the Federal High Court should never have revoked his bail; that the prosecution wrought grand deception on the Court on the bail-jumping issue and that the bench warrant that triggered Nnamdi Kanu’s infamous extraordinary rendition was obtained by deception and should never have been issued.

“For the foregoing reasons, I implore the media, members of the public and pertinent public officials to abide by the judgment of the Supreme Court and henceforth cease and desist from peddling or publishing the false and defamatory narrative that Nnamdi Kanu had jumped bail.”

Nigerian army should stop behaving like zombies and cultists. Everything no be show of muscle and force. Sometimes, you apply a bit of common sense and tact.

If they hadn't invaded Kanu's home, there was no way he would have run away from Nigeria.
And by now, this case would have ended and judges hearing the matter would face other important legal issues. Nigerian justices are currently overwhelmed.

I hope and believe that the Nigerian Army has been able to pay Nnamdi Kanu the N1 billion for damage with a public apology.

God go continue to shame dem.

Believe it or not, Nigeria is not getting any better. Those who support this government are the biggest enemies of this country.

The OP of this thread made the above post. Op is an enemy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

To clear you all, when justice Nyako granted Kanu bail, he broke all his bail conditions and started taking pictures will more than the number of people stipulated in his bail terms.

Then again he started holding several gathering with his fellow clowns waving the flag of IPOB which is a CANNIBAL terrorist group . Again he broke his bail terms

Then again he started threatening Nigerian security forces and he ordered IPOB to be killing police and soldiers.

When the Nigerian military visited him on a friendly visit to ask him why he is inciting people against Nigeria army. He ran away in the middle of the night to cameroon.
So ask yourself, "did Mazi Nnamdi Kanu jump bail or not"?

You should have gone to court to give all these as evidence against him. Since you know more than the Supreme Court Judges.

You see that Nation BIAFRA, it's a certainty. You will convulse appropriately because BIAFRA is a must

You will still beg them to go...

Enemy of the state. You won't be missed when the Nigeria army knocks at your door

Kanu will die in the DSS gulag

I have a question.
What are Nnamdi Kanu's Lawyers waiting for before sueing Buhari and Malami at the ICC for kidnapping and Abduction. Buhari no longer has Immunity for almost 1 year now, why is he free and at rest? Once you drag him to ICC in his personal capacity, he must appear for defence or interpol must arrest him or he convicts himself to prison like your super cop.

Once you start dragging Buhari for Kidnapping, Tinubu and his Supreme Court will stop defending an international crime, because they can become culpable.
