Supreme Court fixes date to deliver final judgement on Nnamdi Kanu’s release

The Supreme Court has fixed a date to deliver judgment on the case involving the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s led federal government.

As reported by Channels TV, the apex court will on Friday, December 15th, deliver judgement on the appeal seeking to compel the FG to release IPOB’s leader Kanu from detention.

Meanwhile, a five-member panel led by Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun had in October fixed the date after counsel for both the FG and the detained IPOB leader adopted their final briefs of argument.

While Kanu prayed to the court to not only order his immediate release from detention and to equally award very heavy and punitive costs against the FG, the FG however, urged the apex court to uphold the amended brief of argument he filed on May 3, 2023.

Some of the demands include efforts to smoothen the southwest and southeast relationship.
