The United Kingdom branch of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB group has demanded for a fair trial and judgement with proper consideration of facts, evidence and logic in the ongoing case involving Mr Nnamdi Kanu, Director of Radio Biafra.
The group in a statement released in Nnewi said the case involving Nnamdi Kanu is a sensitive one and will make or mar Nigeria’ image in the international community, if improperly handled.
Further in the statement, the group praised Justice John Tsoho of the Federal High Court Abuja’s forthrightness in ensuring that justice, equity, and fairness were displayed in his ruling for the transfer of Mr. Kanu from the Department of State Services, DSS, cell to Kuje prison.
“Keeping Mr Kanu in prison will enable him have access to his doctors, lawyers, family members and other related parties.
“We look forward to a fair trial and judgement based on facts, evidence and logic, for this case of Nnamdi Kanu versus Buhari’s DSS. We believe that indeed a Daniel has come to judgement,” said the spokesperson for the United Kingdom branch of IPOB.
However, the group expressed its disappointments saying; “The DSS supported by the Buhari’s government flouted, and disregarded court orders leading to Kanu staying in detention for 98 days, an action that is very reprehensible, for a government that claims to be fighting corruption”
