[BREAKING] DSS denies Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyers access to courtroom

 

The Department of State Services (DSS) has denied some lawyers in the legal team of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) access into the court.

MuchTalksBlog reports that Barrister Aloy Ejimakor and Mike Ozekhome (SAN) were the only two allowed into the court though.

As of the time of publishing this report, the lawyers are at the front of the gate of the Federal High Court, Abuja.

Recall that a 15-count terrorism charge was slammed on Nnamdi Kanu by the Federal Government.

He pleaded not guilty to the charges and asked the Federal High Court, Abuja, to discharge and acquit him without standing trial because the charges were not worth being defended.

Kanu had last Tuesday filed a preliminary objection challenging the competence of the new charge as well as the jurisdiction of the court to hear the matter.

According to the defendant, the fresh charge preferred against him were baseless, worthless, defective and could not stand the test of the law hence, should be dismissed.
