The Federal Government has reportedly amended the charges against pro-Biafra agitator, Nnamdi Kanu.
The separatist’s lawyers said the amended charges were served on them ahead of Thursday’s trial.
Kanu’s lead counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, said in a statement he signed and issued last night, after routine visit to Kanu.
“Today, I and my colleague, Bar. Alloy Ejimakor, had a very fruitful visitation to Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. We discussed a wide range of matters, especially concerning hearing in his case and appearance in court on 21st October, 2021. There will be more on this later” the statement said in part.
“The coast is now clear for legal fireworks this Thursday, particularly now that we have been served with a purported “Amended Charge” in the Case.”
“Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is in good spirit, awaiting his auspicious outing on Thursday, the 21st Day of October, 2021. He commended those who are in the spirit with him, while declaring that Chukwuokike Abiama has ordained this special Day for a victorious outing,” he said.
Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) will appear before Justice Nyako to continue his trial for treason.
