The Federal High Court in Abuja has approved the relocation of the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), to the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters, News360 Nigeria reports.

Justice James Omotosho, who presides over the case, issued the directive on the grounds that the relocation is necessary to facilitate the inspection of a shipping container linked to Kanu.

This decision means that subsequent proceedings will take place at the DSS facility rather than the Federal High Court premises in Abuja.

Kanu’s trial has drawn national attention due to its political sensitivity and the high-profile nature of the IPOB movement.


The container was said to have been used by Kanu to bring a radio transmitter into Nigeria for broadcast on Radio Biafra.

The IPOB leader is currently facing trial for terrorism due to his push for the actualization of Biafra.

the question @ hand is why are you importing a radio transmitter into Nigeria for, does he work or own a radio station?

Or is it true that Mazi is the managing director of Biafra Radio?

So Biafra cannot make their own FAKE radio transmitter?

That he is importing a transmitter because he wants to decorate his palour with it is his business

The question is if importing a Radio transmitter is a crime? If it's not a crime the that's one charge that is pointless

I'm not Kanu fan, but I think they should take it into Tinubu's bedroom in Aso Rock for maximum security. What a shame that a small fry like Kanu is whom they are treating as one heavy former president or something.

Only children can be incited to do what they did not plan to do. Adults act voluntarily. Nnamdi Kanu did not incite children.

Evidence abound concerning MNK's involvement in treasonable offences for which he could be jailed.


However, a political solution to resolving the issue would be preferable if only to douse the palpable tension and bring about the much needed national integration and unity.


Already Simon Ekpa is singing like a canary while claiming to be a mere content creator.


The Biafra Dreamland can only exist in the imagination.

I hope this doesn't mean a bigger wahala o. Joke apart, this move is a step towards final settlement of the case. I feel like Kanu is going home the next Democracy day and he will be conferred, the honour of GTON Grand Terrorist Of Nigeria
