n a significant development, Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has declared that no court in Nigeria has the jurisdiction to try him. The proclamation came during his ongoing trial, causing a stir in the courtroom.
The tension escalated when Kanu stood up from the dock and addressed both the court and members of the press. His actions sparked further discord in the courtroom, leading to Justice Binta Nyako, the presiding judge, stepping down from the case. Citing growing tensions and disruptions, Justice Nyako officially recused herself, leaving the future of the trial in question.
The resignation of the judge adds another twist to this already contentious case, drawing attention from both local and international observers. Kanu’s supporters, who have been vocal throughout the trial, have expressed their backing of his stance, increasing the intensity of the situation.
As the legal proceedings face an uncertain future, questions arise about how the judiciary and government will respond to this unfolding drama. All eyes are now on the federal authorities and the next legal steps.
