The Federal High Court in Abuja, on Friday, fixed Nov. 20 for judgment in the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IOPB) on alleged terrorism offences.
Justice James Omotosho fixed the date after Kanu’s defence was foreclosed following his insistence that he would not enter his defence under a repealed law.
“This court has given opportunity to the defendant under Section 36 as requires by the constitution and I will not allow this to continue,” Justice Omotosho said.
“It is based on this, without hesitation, that I say that the defendant has waived his right,” Justice Omotosho said.
