Court Rejects Kanu’s Request For His Seized Passports And Money by tommykiwi(m): 2:44pm On Feb 09, 2016 |
A Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday dismissed an application by leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra and founder of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, for the release of certain items, including his British and Nigeria passports, which are in the custody of the Department of State Service. Justice James Tsoho dismissed the application made orally by Kanu’s lawyer, Mr. Chuks Muouma (SAN), who had sought the release of the items because they would not be needed by the prosecution since they were not listed as part of exhibits to be tendered. Apart from the passports, other items which Muouma sought to be released to the IPOB leader who is currently in detention at Kuje prison along with his two co-accuse, are cash sums of $2,200 and N87,000.Justice Tsoho, in dismissing the application for lacking in merit, insisted that the fact that the items were not listed as possible exhibits did not foreclose the possibility of their being later used by the prosecution as exhibits. He then adjourned the case till February 19 for the hearing of an application by the prosecution for protection of its witnesses. The judge, before adjourning the case, granted the request by the defence lawyer to the effect that relations of the accused persons be allowed in the court room subject to security screening and the capacity of the court room. Kanu, David Nwawusi and Benjamin Madubugwu are being prosecuted on six counts of treasonable felony, unlawful possession of firearms and other offences bordering on their agitation for secession of the Republic of Biafra from Nigeria. Justice Tsoho had on January 29 denied bail to Kanu and the two other defendants and ordered that they remained on remand pending the period of their trial. The judge in rejecting the accused persons’ bail application, held that they were not entitled to bail as they failed to challenge the allegation by the prosecution that they would continue to commit the alleged crime for which they were being prosecuted if granted bail. Kanu was in the custody of the Department of State Service from the time of his arrest in a Lagos hotel on October 14, 2015 till January 20, 2016, when he was transferred to prison by an order of Justice Tsoho , shortly after he was arraigned along with two others.

Which Passport? Is it the British Passport, Nigerian Passport or the Biafran Passport? Nnamdi Kanu, I am very sorry, the only place the Biafran Passport can get you to is inside the Kuje Prison. Even for Igboland sef if you no hold money, you con go carry Biafra passport go enter Ifesinachi; God is Good; Guo Motors; Ekene Dili Chukwu etc, say you wan travel, na stone dem go stone you 59 Likes 6 Shares |

Kanu still remains a great man. If the DSS are still conducting investigation by this time, even with the video you guys have been yapping about, then it means the video is not admissible as an evidence of threat. The FG looks more clueless in this case. Why haven't they jail him yet, if the video of him soliciting weapon is a super-evidence of treason? They are just afraid of making the guy a hero, FG has no case here. Everyone except zombies can see that. 17 Likes 3 Shares |

SLIDEwaxie: Can't you read? he want's his British passport. He doesn't use a nigerian passport. A British passport grants visa-free access to more 197 countries. Nigerian passports can only grant you visa-free access to few countries mainly west african countries and some other hell-holes. No sane person uses nigerian passport nowadays. My uncle is married to a beautiful Finnish lady, he is now a citizen of finland after meeting the rigourous requirement, he travels to 120 countries visa free including the US and Britain. **** 7 Likes 1 Share |

Nonsense. what kind of dumb request is that? Kanu should sack his lawyers again jor. Release his British passport so that he can escape jail with the help of unpatriotic elements? By the way, he should be finding comfort in his Biafra passport. I learnt one can use the 'passport' to visit any country in the world 20 Likes 1 Share |
