The Federal High Court in Abuja has handed down a life imprisonment sentence to Nnamdi Kanu, the self-proclaimed leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), after convicting him on multiple counts of terrorism.

Justice James Omotosho announced that the sentence, which was determined for counts one, four, five, and six, came as an alternative to the death penalty.

Kanu received sentences of 20 years and five years for Count Seven, both of which are to be served concurrently without the option of a fine.

Delivering judgment, he said “I hereby sentence the convict to life imprisonment for counts one, four, five, and six, instead of death sentence.

“With respect to Count Three, he is hereby sentenced to 20 years imprisonment without no option of fine.

“For Count Seven, he is sentenced to five years imprisonment without no option of fine. To extend the mercy, I hereby order that the sentence shall run concurrently.”
