Kanu refuses to submit to trial, calls Nigerian Govt lawyer ‘terrorist’
The development eventually forced Justice Binta Fatimat Nyako to adjourn the trial to June 19, in order to calm the situation.
Shouting on top of his voice, Kanu vowed he would not submit himself to trial, claiming that the Nigeria government has no powers under the Constitution and international laws to file criminal charges against him.
Shortly after the judge declined his request for restoration of his revoked bail, and removal from DSS custody, Kanu got up from the dock and contested the attempt by the Federal Government lawyer, Adegboyega Awomolo, to open the trial.
Immediately Awomolo announced that his witnesses were in court and ready to open trial, Kanu stood up and took over arguments from his lawyers led by Aloy Ejiamakor.
He told the court to forget any trial, adding that he would not allow himself to be prosecuted unjustly and illegally.
He cited several authorities from a document in his possession in the dock to support his objections to the trial.
When the government lawyer interjected that a defendant was not permitted to talk the way Kanu was doing, the Biafra agitator became more angry and descended heavily on the senior lawyer, calling him a terrorist in the open court.
Attempts by Justice Nyako to calm him down were rebuffed as he repeatedly shouted on the government lawyer, calling him “a terrorist and a dishonest man”.
“As current Chairman of Body of Benchers, you are supposed to know the Constitution and uphold it,” Kanu said, referring to Awomolo.
Apparently unhappy with Kanu’s outburst, Awomolo told Justice Nyako that such habit is expected.
“He is only acting on emotions. I am not offended, I am not provoked,” the senior lawyer submitted.
In a bid to save the situation, the court agreed to a request by Kanu’s lawyer for an adjournment to enable the legal team consult with him in a clean room where there should be no eavesdropping.
Justice Nyako subsequently fixed June 19 and 21 for commencement of trial.

2027 Election: “Tell Tinubu This”, – Primate Ayodele Sends Strong Warning To Tinubu In New Prophecy
Prophet Ayodele has consistently been in the news week in, week out. It is either he is releasing a fresh prophecy that’s gaining traction or a previous prohecy has just come to fulfilment and people are talking about it.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele stated that the present administration is full of wrong advisers who are pushing for irrelevant policies, and making good advisers enemies of the president.
The prophet warned the president against making good advisers his enemies, as it will lead to the end of his government if care isn’t taken.
“Tinubu’s administration is full of wrong advisers; they are turning him against his good advisers, and he will make them his enemies. He is creating enemies, and those whom he thinks love him would be his worst enemies.
“There are lots of irrelevant policies they are using to kill Tinubu’s government; these are policies that will build up massive protests against the government and division. He should do the needful; there are several irrelevant policies already, but the focus ought to be on what will make people happy. “
Primate Ayodele mentioned some things the president should focus on, and they include development and surplus for the people. He stated that road construction is good, but it’s not enough for the people.
He commended the president for his efforts on insecurity but urged him to do more.
“Tinubu should focus on development, on how to create surplus for the people. Road construction is good, but it’s not the only thing people need; he needs to look into other areas.
“On insecurity, he is doing well, but he should do more, activate forest security in order to end kidnapping. He should increase the salaries of national assembly members because it will turn the nation into chaos. He should also eradicate darkness, and not add more tariffs and taxes to basic things in the country.”
