Chief judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho, has rejected the request by the detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, for Justice Binta Nyako, to recuse herself from his case.

Justice Tsoho returned Kanu’s case file to her to handle, saying two other judges were previously recused from the case.

According to Channels Television, Justice Tsoho stated that Kanu’s case was reassigned to Justice Nyako due to its prolonged nature as far back as 2015.

Since she had handled the case for the most part, she was deemed the most suitable judge to see it through to its conclusion.

However, the chief judge directed that if at the next hearing of the case, Kanu still insists on recusing Nyako, he must file a written motion on notice, with an affidavit, stating all the grounds for requesting the recusal.

Kanu’s Special Lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, confirmed the development to Channels Television. He added that Kanu’s team is waiting for an official notice from the court and a new hearing notice.

Justice Nyako earlier recused herself from the case following an oral application by Kanu and his lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor. He had expressed his displeasure and loss of confidence in Justice Nyako, accusing her of disregarding Supreme Court orders. (CHANNELS)
