Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has arrived the Abuja Federal High Court as his trial resumes.<\/p>\n

Kanu was brought to court by operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS.<\/p>\n

The IPOB leader is facing trial before Justice Binta Nyako-led court for charges bordering on terrorism.<\/p>\n

A few weeks ago, Justice Nyako had struck out some charges from those levelled against Kanu by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n

However, the court is expected to rule on Kanu\u2019s bail application today.<\/p>\n

Kanu has been locked up by the DSS since he was arrested in June 2021.<\/p>\n

The IPOB leader was rearrested in Kenya and repatriated to Nigeria.<\/p>\n
