A video making rounds online has shown a tense moment involving Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), during his court appearance. In the clip, Kanu appeared visibly upset as he pushed a Department of State Services (DSS) officer and accused the security agency of ignoring the law. He was heard shouting, “You have no law,” suggesting that he believed his rights were being violated inside the courtroom.
After the court session, Hon. Obi Aguocha, a member of the House of Representatives representing Ikwuano/Umuhuahia Federal Constituency, expressed dissatisfaction with the proceedings. Aguocha claimed that the treatment towards Kanu highlighted what he described as “two sets of rules” in Nigeria — one for Igbo people and another for other citizens. His comments have sparked discussions once again on perceived inequality and fairness in the Nigerian judicial system.
Meanwhile, the Federal High Court in Abuja has officially fixed November 20 as the day for its final judgment in Kanu’s terrorism case. The new date marks a crucial moment in the long-running legal battle between the Federal Government and the separatist leader, whose arrest and detention have drawn national and international attention.
Justice James Omotosho announced the ruling date after stating that Kanu did not present his defence despite being granted six days to do so. According to the judge, the court provided ample time and opportunity for the defendant, and therefore Kanu cannot claim that his right to a fair hearing was denied.
With the judgment day fast approaching, the atmosphere around the case remains intense. Supporters of Kanu continue to await the verdict, hoping for his release, while the government stands firm on its charges. The coming weeks are expected to draw heightened public interest and political reactions as Nigerians watch how the case concludes.
