Nnamdi Kanu Asks Supreme Court To Set Aside Appeal Court’s Ruling

Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has approached the Supreme Court to appeal the ruling by the Court of Appeal, staying the execution of the court’s judgment discharging him.

In a statement, one of Kanu’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor said it became pertinent to approach the apex court after a thorough review of the said ruling by the defence team led by Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mike Ozekhome.

According to Kanu’s legal team, the said ruling has no foundation in law or facts and should be set aside by the apex court.

The legal team noted that their decision was approved by Nnamdi Kanu.

Ejiofor said the team will follow up on the administrative process to ensure that both appeals are given accelerated hearing in line with the extant fast track rules of the Supreme Court.
