The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu who appeared at the Federal High Court in Abuja today asked the court throw out the treason charges filed against him and three others by the Federal Government
Kanu made the demand on Tuesday at the court where the Federal Government was to open its case against him and his co-defendants – Chidiebere Onwudiwe, Benjamin Madubugwu and David Nwawuisi.
Arguing that the government had no evidence to support the charges, the pro-Biafran agitator aksed Justice Binta Nyako to not only trash the charges, but to grant them leave to appeal against a ruling, denying them bail in December.
He is also said to have rejected the application granted the Department of State Services, DSS, by Justice Nyako, on December 14, to try him secretly.
