FG Urges Court To Revoke Nnamdi Kanu’s Bail

Federal Government has asked the court to revoke the bail granted to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu. The government cited disobedience of the bail conditions granted to Kanu as part of the reasons for its request.

The Government made the call in an application it filed at the Federal High Court in Abuja. In a Motion On Notice, the government is seeking an order of the court “revoking the bail granted to the 1st defendant (Kanu) on 25th April, 2017”.

It is also seeking an order of the court “directing the arrest and committing the 1st defendant to custody pending trial”. Kanu is standing trial for conspiracy to commit acts of treasonable felony, treasonable felony and other related offences at the court, offences that the government said are not ordinarily bailable.
