Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako of the Federal High Court in Abuja has fixed March 19, 2024, for ruling on a fresh application by Nnamdi Kanu seeking to be admitted to bail in the terrorism charges against him

The trial judge fixed the date after hearing submissions from Kanu’s lawyer, Alloy Ejimakor, praying for bail for his client, and Adegboyega Awomolo, SAN, who stood in for the federal government and vehemently objected to the bail application.

Kanu predicated his request for bail mainly on the fact that he may not be able to put up a good defence unless admitted to bail to have unfettered access to his lawyers.

He also claimed to be suffering from acute hypertension and acute heart disease, among other ailments.

The federal government, however, objected to the bail bid on the ground that Kanu was once granted bail but jumped and fled the country.

Government asserted that all the bail conditions set by the court were breached and violated and pleaded with the court to dismiss the request.

The leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) also argued another motion where he asked the court not to allow continuation of his trial until certain conditions were met by the federal government.

Among others, he requested that DSS operatives be barred from interfering with his lawyers during visitation.

He also asked that the court should compel the federal government to allow him wear the clothes of his choice.

The federal government, however, objected to the requests on the ground that he has no right under any law to dictate how his trial should be conducted.

Awomolo, while seeking the dismissal of the request, said that it was a gross abuse of court process that must not be allowed.
