The trial judge in the Nnamdi Kanu treasonable felony case, Binta Nyako, adjourned the case following the Federal Government’s failure to present the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader before the Federal High Court judge on Monday till October 21.
Nnamdi Kanu was apprehended in June in a yet-to-be-disclosed location and extradited to Nigeria to face trial. He has remained in the custody of the DSS following re-arraignment before the judge.
The embattled IPOB separatist is facing charges bordering on treasonable felony leveled against him by the Federal Government over his struggle for an independent “Republic of Biafra”.

He eventually fled to the United Kingdom following a military exercise that led to a raid of his father’s residence in 2017.
