Trial of leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has on Tuesday been stalled after he objected to the fresh charges brought against him by the Federal Government.
MDB earlier on Monday reported that the Federal Government filed fresh terrorism charges against the detained leader of the proscribed IPOB leader before the Federal High Court.

Consequently, the initial seven counts bordering on treasonable felony and terrorism, against him, increased to 15.
However, during his trial which held on Tuesday amidst heavy security presence, Kanu objected to the fresh charges.
The court is now expected to reconvene on Wednesday, January 19, for him to take his plea.
Earlier in the day, one of the lead counsels for the IPOB Leader, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, announced that Human Rights Lawyer, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), will now lead the delegation of lawyers representing Kanu.
