TERRORISM: WE’RE BATTLE READY, SAYS NNAMDI KANU’S COUNSEL, EJIMAKOR AHEAD OF MONDAY’S TRIAL
The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu’s lead counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, has said the legal team is ready for resumed trial on Monday.
Ejimakor said Kanu’s legal team is primed and ready for Kanu’s trial at the Abuja Federal High Court.
Posting on X, Ejimakor wrote: “PUBLIC NOTICE:
“MAZI NNAMDI KANU’s case set for 20th May 2024 will hold.
“The Court shall convene at 12noon. Ground zero: Federal High Court, Abuja.
“#MnkLegalTeam is primed & in battle array. #NoShaking.
“The #MNKLegalTeam & all conscientious people around the world appreciate the Supreme Court of Nigeria in the case of FGN v #MNK, when it held that: “Crime cannot be committed [by Nigerian Govt.] as a valid means of crime prevention & control.”
“When a Government [like Nigeria] established by LAW resorts to the commission of crimes [extraordinary rendition/kidnapping/criminal abduction] as a means of crime control and prevention, the RULE OF LAW becomes ENDANGERED.
“The question we ask then is: What becomes of justice, people & society when the sanctity of rule of law is destroyed by those employed to uphold it? It’s long overdue to do JUSTICE. #FreeMNK,” he claimed.
Kanu will continue trial for terrorism at the Abuja Federal High Court.
This came after the judgment of the Supreme Court upturning the ruling of the Appeal Court that discharged and acquitted him of terrorism charges.
