Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has opted not to present his defence in the terrorism case brought against him by the Federal Government.
During Monday’s resumed court session, Kanu, who recently parted ways with his legal team to represent himself, told the court that he found no legitimate charge against him after reviewing the documents in his case.
He stated: “Join me in praising God. I have examined my case file, and there is no charge against me.”
Kanu argued that the prosecution had not referenced any existing law that justifies the accusations.
“There is no law in this country on which these charges can be based. If there is one, let my Lord show it to me,” he said.
He insisted that defending himself against what he described as a “non-existent” charge would be unfair and called on the judge to either release him immediately or grant him bail.
The court has adjourned for further proceedings to consider Kanu’s stance.
Kanu’s remarks have sparked widespread discussion on social media, with many Nigerians expressing curiosity about how the case will unfold.
