The list is unserious. They might decide not to come. You cannot force them to testify

Nnamdi kanu put this people on his list of compelled witnesses for a reason he knows they won't come , and even if they do come he knows they won't speak in his favour, he only wants to use the actions and things these people have said and done in the past in his own defense

He sacked many today and says he wants to represent himself.

If he listens to anyone, he would have avoided the trip that to re country he's extradited from

How I wish this criminal called Kanu committed this heinous crime during Babangida or Abacha’s era.

By now he would have received a welcome party by Emeka Oloju kwukwu.

He needs to be used as a deterrent to others who equally nurture the ambition of disrespecting the symbols of our sovereignty .

It is not, it's a smart move. I would have explained but do your research, let me give you hint, they all know about the importation of foreign bandits to destabilize the country and he was shouting about it that Igbos should harm themselves against it. A party are officials that know about it the other party told their people to resist attacks by picking up guns , eg TY DANJUMA so he is indirectly implicating them for his freedom

That's very strategic move from Kanu. I can already foresee how things will unfold once Buratai takes the witness stand as Nnamdi Kanu cross examines him.

Kanu: Did you order the military to invade my house in Umuahia, killing my father and 25 other innocent people?

Buratai: No, I did not.

Kanu: Then who gave the order and were those men under your command?

Buratai: The people who might have invaded your house were not officers or soldiers of the Nigerian Army under my command.

Kanu: My Lord, the witness has just confirmed before this Honourable Court that there were active armed men operating in the Southeast during his tenure as Chief of Army Staff who were not under his command and these men cannot be linked to IPOB since it would make no sense for IPOB to attack the home of its own leader and kill his father along with 25 others. My Lord this revelation undermines the prosecution’s claim that IPOB was behind every act of violence at the time, it weakens the prosecutions claim that IPOB carried out the attacks they claim.

The Federal government can't close a case that the defendant refused to open while employing all kinds of delay tactics.

Complete waste of time and resources. Did he think all this will get him out. The way out is political and it’s left for the elders where he comes from.
