A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Thursday revoked the bail earlier granted to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
The court presided over by Justice Binta Nyako, gave an order directing that a bench warrant be issued for Kanu’s arrest.
The court, Igbere TV learnt, said it gave the order because Kanu had failed to appear in court after his bail was granted in April 2017.
The court, Igbere TV gathered, ruled that the trial must continue.
It, therefore, directed that a fresh date for the continuation should be given by parties so that the matter will continue in Kanu’s absence.
The case was, thereafter, adjourned till June 18.
Igbere TV recalls that Mazi Kanu who had been calling for an independent Biafran country, escaped Nigeria military assassination and has since then appeared in several online videos in Israel – criticising the Nigeria government.
More to come…
