Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has found the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, guilty on count 1 of the terrorism charges against him.
Justice Omotosho stated that the IPOB leader is guilty of committing an act of terrorism against the Federal Republic of Nigeria by threatening that people will die and the world will be at a standstill during a live broadcast.
The Judge said, “Mr Kanu knew what he was doing , he was bent on carrying out these threats without consideration to his own people.
“From the incontroverted evidence it is clear that the defendant carried out preparatory act of terrorism.
“He had the duty to explain himself but failed to do so.”
