PRESS RELEASE Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Challenges Legality of His Trial — Demands Prosecution Identify Valid Law Behind Charges Abuja, October 27, 2025 — Proceedings in the case of Federal Republic of Nigeria v. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu took a decisive turn today before Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja. During the hearing, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who appeared in person, firmly maintained that there is no valid or subsisting charge known to law against him. Despite repeated cajoling and pressure from the judge and the prosecution team led by Chief Adegboyega Awomolo, SAN, Kanu insisted that the learned silk should read into the record or restate the law under which he is being charged and asked to enter a defence. Chief Awomolo, SAN, was unable to identify any existing legal provision creating the offence alleged against Kanu, effectively confirming the defendant’s long-standing position that the entire proceeding lacks a legal foundation. Justice Omotosho, in response, directed Mazi Kanu to file a written address within four (4) days on the validity of the charge and serve same on the prosecution. The Court expressly resisted all attempts by the prosecution to convert the forthcoming address into a final defence address, emphasizing that the issue before the court remains the validity of the charge itself, not the merits of any defence. Today’s development underscores Mazi Kanu’s unyielding stance that his continued trial constitutes an unlawful process, being anchored on no known or valid law. His position remains clear: “There can be no defence where there is no valid charge.” As soon as the court or prosecution team identify any known law that is extant and subsisting in Nigeria’s corpus juris, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will enter his defence and witnesses he listed will be called.

Omoboricash:NK careless. Stop pitting him. All he wants is justice. Nigeria government should use their law to trial him, but unfortunately, there is no existing law anywhere Nigeria government can use and trial him. They are just keeping him in custody because of shame. 2 Likes |

chiagozien:Ipob media, you are reporting and twisting the what happened in court to only IPOB audience, right? You brought twisted report and come here comment yourself. Your eyes will be cleaned when your KANU is given life sentence or 20 years minimum in few days. His six days is counting, he should implicate himself by putting it in writing as requested by the judge so he wouldn't say somebody pushed him to say that. If you love him so much, be ready to share out of his sentence years with him. We told you before that you are following an ignorant person making mockery of himself. Where are his witnesses comming from Sudan, Egypt and Nigeria? He talked one thing before, but now doing another thing. He is never consistent. Only ipob/ESN that believed Buhari was cloned are the only ones that will clap in ignorance for your reportage when some credible and reliable unbiased had already brought truth of what happened in court. Kanu is getting closer to the jail, but his followers are still not ignorant of this yet until it hits them hard 3 Likes 1 Share |

I pray that Nigerian government will not mess the Courts up because of this Nnamdi Kanu's Case. Sentiment aside, how can you charge a man for an offense that is not known to your laws? It's a pity that this guy is giving our judiciary this headache because we are still battling to accept democratic leadership as our ways of life. May God help Nigeria. 🙏🙏🙏 2 Likes |

sreamsense:My dear stop behaving like an illiterate, they have given us an account of what they said happened at the court today. If you have a better account of what happened, please counter it and stop messing your education up here by behaving like a street tout.

The court case has taken an interesting turn, with the defendant maintaining that there is no valid charge against him. The prosecution team was unable to identify any existing legal provision creating the offence alleged against he, effectively confirming his long-standing position that the entire proceeding lacks a legal foundation. It seems like the game of cat and mouse conhe with the court resisting all attempts by the prosecution to convert the forthcoming address into a final defence address. 1 Like |

sreamsense:And you wrote this long epistle without stating the untwisted version of what happened in the court, neither were you able to state the premises on which you based your life sentence for him. Why do we love illegality and oppression in Nigeria, based on tribalism, hatred, religion and selfishness? |
