FG Closes Case Against Nnamdi Kanu, Court Adjourns To July 18 by Metrix147(op): 1:14pm On Jun 19, 2025
The Federal Government of Nigeria has formally closed its case against the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, at the Federal High Court in Abuja, ABN TV reports.

This development was disclosed by one of Kanu’s lead counsels, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) shortly after court proceedings on Wednesday.

According to Ejimakor, the presiding judge granted the defense team 14 days to file their written address in support of a no-case submission — a legal argument that Kanu has no case to answer. The prosecution was also given 14 days to respond.

With this, the matter has been adjourned until July 18, 2025, for further proceedings.

“Today, the Federal Republic of Nigeria CLOSED its case against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu… Thank you for your support,” Ejimakor posted.

The trial of Nnamdi Kanu continues to attract local and international attention, with human rights groups and observers closely monitoring the process. Kanu has remained in custody since his controversial rendition from Kenya to Nigeria in 2021.

Kidnapped from another country and smuggled into Nigeria to be demonized while dangerous criminals are murdering and burning over 200 individuals in one night with no single arrest.

At last, the FG has closed its case. This is a man who has been in detention since 2021 under controversial circumstances. It’s time for the court to do the right thing and let justice speak.
Keeping a man in custody for years, only to struggle to prove a case, is a stain on our justice system. Freedom must mean something in this country.
July 18, we are watching closely!

Is that all? I expected more from the FG defence going by the news we have been reading


Lets not forget that till date we can't easily mention anyone that has been jailed for the massacre going on in Benue and other states till date. Maybe IPOB we have to find a way to get IPOB involved for the appropriate authority to act
Re: FG Closes Case Against Nnamdi Kanu, Court Adjourns To July 18 by Angelindisguise(f): 1:23pm On Jun 19, 2025
The Government will release MNK. Like I always say, the government need this 'bad guys'

He will be released before the end of this year.

What a country, where a man is jailed for speaking up while others who are bearing heavy arms, sluttering people for fun, roasting villagers to oave way for cows, are petted and begged for negotiations.

Let me chill and wait for helinues.

Oops! It's not about Peter Obi

Every word he spoke and prophesied is currently happening now. He warned each and everyone of us on the present marauders and land grabbers masquerading and cattle herders, but we didn't listen. Now everyone is suffering.
That alone should be the reason we should all be clamouring for his unconditional release.

I believe he is the only one who can propose and enforce solutions against those beasts threatening the peace of Nigeria. That is why they are against him.

Let's hope for happy endings

They had no case against him, yet they wanted him to suffer like a criminal.

They called him a terrorist, claiming he fueled a terrorist movement, and ironically, their actions, including the false accusations, validated his statement that Nigeria is a 'Zoo' with the way his case was handled.

For over 8 years, they allowed actual terrorists to operate freely, referring to them as 'bandits' instead. Instead of directly confronting the issue, they let these groups display their power by terrorizing citizens.
