BREAKING: Nnamdi Kanu sentenced to life imprisonment by Nigerian Court

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has been sentenced to life imprisonment by a Federal High Court in Abuja after being convicted on all seven terrorism charges filed against him.

Delivering the judgment, Justice James Omotosho described Kanu as a terrorist whose actions have caused bloodshed and destabilization in the South-East.

He added that Kanu, who portrayed himself as a defender of his people, has instead endangered lives and national security.

“The court finds that the defendant, Nnamdi Kanu, is an international terrorist and must be treated accordingly,” Justice Omotosho declared.

The judge emphasized that the prosecution presented credible and sufficient evidence to prove the case, noting that Kanu chose not to present a defense and rested his case entirely on the prosecution’s evidence.
