Kanu was handed a life imprisonment sentence for Counts 1, 4, 5 and 6 of the seven-count charges instead of a death sentence, while he was handed a 20-year jail term for Count 3 without option of fine and 5-year jail term for Count 7 without an option of fine.

"Life is sacred to God, so despite I am not persuaded, I must temper Justice with mercy, the terms are to run concurrently." - Justice Omotosho

The Federal High Court in Abuja has sentenced the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu to life Imprisonment instead of death sentence.

Justice James Omotosho who handed down the sentence on Thursday had called for recess after convicting the IPOB leader.

Kanu was convicted under the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act, insisting that the gravity of the offenses leaves the court with only one lawful option – the death penalty.

The court showed mercy indeed. All is well that ends well.

This is much better than any death penalty that would have made him a martyr, and his tomb a center for pilgrimage by his minions.

Thank you President Tinubu. Thank you Late President Buhari (that lured, captured and caged the skirt-chasing terrorist in the most legendary manner).

Katsina Prison loading….RIP Fendi

QuotaSystem:
Nnamdi Kanu spat in the eyes of the North and South West with his inciteful, derogatory, insulting and denigrating Radio Biafra broadcasts.

Targeted, harassed and killed Northerners in the SE. Attacked their food & livestock trucks, culminating in the cold-blooded murders of Late Huraira and her innocent kids, Ahmed Gulak, the military couple that were butchered and killed in the most mind-bending, eyesore way, among thousands of other killings of his own kinsmen and other innocent Nigerians.

Masterminded the Owerri Prison jailbreak, releasing over 1,000 convicted killers, kidnappers, cannibals and all sort of criminals into Iboland, damaging the economy of the region and ingraining an atmosphere of siege and total insecurity.

Repeatedly insulted and harassed Late President Buhari (who lured, captured and caged him in the most legendary manner) and wished destruction on the present President Tinubu's life & properties. Called for the destruction of Lagos and had his minions carry it out with razor-sharp efficacy.

Today the uncouth, unhinged terrorist faces the consequences of his madness; to which he has reacted like a lily-livered coward with howling and panic-driven trepidation.

This is true justice for the thousands killed, maimed and butchered because of the madness of the terrorist Nnamdi Kanu. This is wishing a similar fate befalls ALL terrorists that have blood of innocent Nigerians on their hands, in the East, North, West & South. Goodbye, Kanu; and I hope generations after you will learn from the tragedy of history you were, a dark blight on humanity.

The world is watching. Tinubu will be disgraced out of office and no one can save him

He has made the pronouncement.
He is going to rot in perpetual incarceration.
No peace for the wicked.
We are all happy for the sentencing, although I would have preferred death sentence. No need wasting our tax feeding his criminal ass.

Dey play. Kanu is lucky to have a life sentence. Normally, na kpai sentence he deserves

Finally, the case is done and dusted.

This what Justice Binta Nyako couldn't do.

Women still have a long way to go...

Nigeria is a country map out for destruction by God.



When God wanted to destroy pharaoh,he lead him to middle of red sea.

Fair enough

Now igbo leaders can start negotiation as soon as possible

He will be released after 2027 general election

Honestly, the judge was very Merciful to Nnamdi Kanu

HelenaWills:
He has made the pronouncement.

To be fair. Kanu played into the hands of the Terrorist government. He had a good course but his arrogance brought him down. They used Ikpa to commit crimes upon his head! The APC government is terrible. But Kanu is a proud man. His prophesies are coming to pass but he is arrogant. But he is suffering because he is Igbo.

This sentence sweet me die. My long awaited moment.

I so much love this. I won't lie.

Justice for the blood of the innocent Christians and every family or family members killed in the South East because of I P O B and E S N led by this T E R R O R I S T called Kanu.

Justice finally for the Lagos State government at last.

Justice for all security officers killed while doing their duties, the vigilantes, the police, DSS, Millitary.

Justice for his dog that died o.

Justice delayed is indeed not denied.

The blood of all those he killed will torment him till he dies in custody.

Again, I so love this sentence.

If Kanu appeals, he might get the death sentence .

Running your mouth and causing the deaths of people has consequences. Go to your new apartment jare

Justice at last for the beautiful people killed by Kanus actions

Dr Chike Akunyili, The army lady who was raped and beheaded when going to visit her parents among many

Jubilations and celebrations all over south east immediately after the judgment

Justice served at the end. May the souls of the people killed through Kanu rest in peace. Send the basstadq to prison Asap where he will completely run mad

The ISWAP terrorist was sentenced to 20yrs but a freedom fighter with no proven case of murder is jailed for life

Someone should describe what a disgraced country looks like once more?

Mrfixitt:
The world is watching. Tinubu will be disgraced out of office and no one can save him

keep reveling in delusion.

Life imprisonment is better than death sentence. Kanu should just appeal the judgment.

The now disgraced terrorist of particular concern.

Death sentence is only for non-influential people. Our judges don't remember Matthew 23v23 for them, or that it is frowned at.

Our prayers are being answered one by one, God is wonderful.

I think he deserves it..

He was given every chance and opportunity to defend himself but he failed at that.

It also means that all the lock down in the east was a joke.

Nigeria won't shut down because a terrorist was given a life sentence.

Good for him, you don't incite people. I hope our government will be just too, because, ejo ise ejo Eni, kama monda. There will be peace now.

We are all happy that this criminal has finally met his doom. God bess the federal republic of nigeria. Nnamdi Kanu is going to rot in jail.

Ran away from the death penalty?
I thought you all wanted him killed to satisfy your tribal orgies..

Justice at last.

His followers should be grateful to the judge for not using the death sentence for him.

He will now change his clothes and wear prison clothes

7 what happened to the death sentence?

These fools want to turn the country upside. What kind of foolishness is this

VERY GOOD
