Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The lead Counsel of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Aloy Ejimakor on Monday explained why Justice Binta Nyako of the Abuja Federal High Court can no longer conduct the trial of the Biafra agitator.<\/p>\nEjimakor explained that the constitution permits Kanu to be tried within a period, hence the trial of the IPOB leader has extended for years.<\/p>\n
He disclosed that Kanu has filed a petition bordering on judicial misconduct against Nyako which is enough to get her off the case.<\/p>\n
This is coming when Nyako adjourned Kanu\u2019s trial \u201csin die.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nyako had initially recused herself from Kanu\u2019s trial after the IPOB made the demand in open court last year.<\/p>\n
But the judge\u2019s decision was turned down after the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, John Tsoho refused to accept Kanu\u2019s case file and reassign the matter to another judge.<\/p>\n
Consequently, Nyako resumed the hearing on Monday, after which, she adjourned indefinitely.<\/p>\n
Reacting, Ejimakor maintained that the judge lacked the constitutional powers to continue with Kanu\u2019s trial.<\/p>\n
In a statement he issued, Ejimakor said: \u201cWe have been informed by our Client (Mazi Nnamdi Kanu) and we have obtained a copy thereof… that he has initiated a Petition or a Complainant bordering on judicial misconduct against Honorable Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako. This alone, without more, is enough to oust the Justice from subjecting Mazi Kanu to any trial before her court. It is against the rule of natural justice, equity and good conscience (and even the Cons) for a Judge against whom a defendant has preferred a Petition to \u2013 before the disposition of such Petition \u2013 continue to preside over the trial of such a defendant. This is very easy to understand \u2013 for lawyers and lay people alike. Compare and contrast with someone being a judge in his or her own case, or being a Judge over you when she is a defendant in the case you initiated against her. The Petition or Complaint was filed on 14th January 2025 and it is pending.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a BACKGROUND to the current impasse, below are the reasons Mazi Nnamdi Kanu had to take the drastic step of requesting the RECUSAL:<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst, back in June 2021, the same Judge conducted a hearing by which Mazi Kanu (an awaiting-trial) was ordered remanded without notice to, and the presence of his former Counsel (of record) at the hearing. That was a grave constitutional error that turned highly prejudicial against Mazi Kanu and it continues to be constitutionally injurious to him to this day.<\/p>\n
\u201cSecond, Mazi Kanu was ordered detained in DSS cell instead of a prison facility as the law contemplates. The excuse then (which \u2013 by the way \u2013 fell outside the exceptions) was that every penitentiary in Nigeria is porous or pathetically low-security. This excuse suggested a judicial state of mind that imputed a proclivity for jailbreak to Mazi Kanu. That\u2019s wrong and unacceptable.<\/p>\n
\u201cThird, when the DSS detention posed grave risks to Mazi Kanu\u2019s constitutional right to fair hearing and to Counsel, the Judge summarily refused his application for transfer to prison or other less restrictive facility and instead ordered an accelerated trial. That\u2019s manifest injustice.<\/p>\n
\u201cFourth, when the Supreme Court ruled against Mazi Kanu\u2019s bail revocation, the same Judge who had revoked his bail refused to reinstate the bail. That\u2019s an egregious violation of the Constitution and the doctrine of stare decisis.<\/p>\n
\u201cFifth, the Supreme Court had held that, by revoking Mazi Kanu\u2019s bail, the Judge\u2019s impartiality has become suspect. In the face of this damning indictment from the apex court, it would amount to a dangerous gamble for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to ignore this and take his chances in a trial that has six capital offenses arrayed against him.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd sixth, despite the enormous risks to Mazi Kanu\u2019s right to fair trial posed by the strict conditions of his detention at the DSS and the illegality of the charges, the Judge summarily refused our meritorious application to adjourn the trial until the exhaustion our appeal challenging her jurisdiction to try the case. For Mazi Kanu, this is the last straw that broke the camel\u2019s back.<\/p>\n
\u201cAbove all, when Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was presented in Court on 29th June 2021, following his rendition from Kenya, the Court had a duty to make inquiries regarding the locale of his \u201carrested\u201d (whether in Nigeria or abroad); and if abroad, whether his \u201carrest and surrender\u201d to Nigeria complied with the pertinent laws of the country of his refuge, as well as that of Nigeria and the international laws on point. We are aware that the Court never made such inquiry because if it did, it would have revealed the earliest indication of the infamous extraordinary rendition that has complicated jurisdiction to this day. You will recall that the former Attorney-General had falsely claimed that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was lawfully extradited. If not for the dexterity of one Mazi Nnamdi Kanu\u2019s Counsel who had told Nigerians what actually happened, this grave falsity would have persisted as the truth to this day.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe post-recusal Summons issued to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu that brought us to Court on 10th February 2024 cannot be blamed on the Court alone. The prosecution grandfathered it by a Letter it wrote to the Court on 5th December 2024, requesting that the case be re-calendared for a hearing before Justice Murtala-Nyako. In our reaction and after a considered view that the said Letter strained the boundaries of prosecutorial misconduct, we countered with a reply, vehemently opposing the re-calendaring the case to be heard before a Judge who is bound by an extant Order of recusal.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn our efforts to stave off what we reckoned to be burgeoning unconstitutionality that lies in sending the case back to the recused Judge, we took the responsible step of generating a Letter to the Honorable Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, requesting for transfer of the case to the Southeast. We took this step because we were reliably informed that the \u201cofficial\u201d reason for sending the case back to the recused Judge is because no other Judge in the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court is willing to take the case. And the reason why Southeast is in play (to the exclusion of other zones) is because, being the place where the offenses were alleged to have impact, it possesses far superior jurisdiction to every other division, including Abuja.\u201d<\/p>\n
Highlighting the solution to the impasse, Ejimakor reiterate that Kanu\u2019s trial should be transferred to the Southeast if no judge is willing to take it up.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cHaving come thus far, the next logical question is: What\u2019s the way forward? The answers are simple and they are as follows:<\/p>\n
\u201cIf no Judge (other the recused Judge) in Abuja is willing to try the case, the next lawful thing to do is to \u2013 on the authority of Section 45, Federal High Court Act & James Ibori v. FRN \u2013 transfer the case to any of the Federal High Court divisions in the Southeast.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf there\u2019s some sort of a \u201csecret official embargo\u201d in having Mazi Nnamdi Kanu tried in the Southeast, you cannot keep him in an endless limbo while he\u2019s detained as an awaiting-trial. Awaiting which trial? A trial that cannot happen in Abuja or Southeast?<\/p>\n
\u201cIn every common law country, when a State has an insurmountable difficulty in putting a detainee on trial within a reasonable time, the next responsible and lawful option is to release such a detainee until such a time his trial can be properly conducted, subject to any statute of limitation that may be applicable.<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder the Constitution, every criminal suspect, especially a detainee, deserves to be tried within a reasonable time, not an indefinite time, not being in detention for almost four years awaiting trial that never happens for no fault of the detainee but of the State. Additionally, the Administration of Criminal Justice Act prescribed a day-to-day trial for every criminal suspect. It becomes more urgent and compelling when such a suspect is in detention, and a lengthy to boot.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn summation, we make bold to say that the ball is firmly and exclusively in the court of the Federal Government, in the sense that since it has proved unable to bring Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to trial within a reasonable time, then the next best thing (which is also lawful and constitutional) is to end this whole saga honorably by releasing Mazi Nnamdi Kanu either through restoration of his bail or otherwise \u2013 by a discontinuance of a case that was burdened by the indices of internecine politics from its inception ten years ago in 2015.\u201d<\/p>\n
