Aloy Ejimakor, Lead Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Sunday explained why he believes the Biafra agitator can’t get a fair trial.

Ejimakor explained with Kanu can’t get a fair trial while he is detained by the Department of State Services, DSS.

He noted that a defendant can’t get fair trial if there is no equality of arms between him and the prosecutor.

Posting on X, Ejimakor wrote: “A defendant can never have a #FairTrial if there is no EQUALITY OF ARMS between him & the prosecutor. The truth is that this equality of arms will never happen whilst #MNK is detained at the DSS.”

Kanu has been in the custody of the DSS since 2021, when he was arrested in Kenya and forcefully brought back to Nigeria to continue his trial.

He was first arrested in 2015, in Lagos, shortly after he entered Nigeria on a visit and was later arraigned in 2016, alongside four others on offences bordering on treason.

However, the trial judge, Justice Binta Nyako, of the Abuja Federal High Court in 2017, admitted him to bail in the sum of N100 million and three sureties in like sum on health grounds to enable him to prepare adequately for his trial.

The bail was however revoked in 2019 and a warrant of arrest issued against him, for jumping bail in late 2019 and abandoning his trial.

Nigeria don't really know where their problems are from

This guy should be sentence to death by hanging

How can you charge a man to court, but still be interfering and listening to his conversations with his Lawyers? If you have your evidence, bring it to court, not be planting recording devices in the room he consults with his Lawyers, hoping he will say something incriminating so you cam finally have evidence

Smh. This is a serious criminal case. Even those who are alleged to have committed less crime are placed in Guantanamo prison in US.
If they want him freed, they should proceed with the case. I am sure that very soon this lawyer will be reported to the NBA by the prosecutors for disciplinary action. This voyage he is embarking on has no basis in criminal prosecution and he's not getting to the Supreme Court before he is called to order and seriously fined by the Appeal Court.

He is wasting valuable time meant to defend his client on social media. Smh
