Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the Lead Counsel of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Wednesday, October 12, 2022, said the Court of Appeal Abuja Judicial Division will deliver judgement on Thursday, October 13, 2022, in an appeal filed by Nnamdi Kanu, detained leader of the pro-Biafra group, challenging criminal charges against him.
Politics Nigeria reports that Kanu was re-arraigned on an amended 15-count charge bordering on treasonable felony preferred against him by the federal government.
However, on April 8, the judge struck out eight of the 15-count charge.
But Kanu through his team of lawyers led by Mike Ozekhome, filed an appeal marked CA/ABJ/CR/625/2022, praying the court to quash the remaining seven counts for being devoid of merit.
The appeal is equally praying the court to order his release on bail, pending the determination of his appeal.
“We just received NOTIFICATION from the Court of Appeal Abuja Judicial Division, that the long awaited Judgment in Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s Appeal No: CA/ABJ/CR/625/2022 BETWEEN: MAZI NNAMDI KANU VS FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA, will be delivered tomorrow being the 13th Day of October, 2022, at 2pm,” Ejiofor said in a statement he personally signed.
“ChukwuOkike Abiama is on the throne and shall forever be on the throne. The hour has come! Thank you all UMUCHINEKE.
“Victory is ours and it shall surely end in praises.”
