ANOTHER ANGLE OF MNK MOVE TO OPEN HIS DEFENSE.
1. The prosecutor has linked Nnamdi Kanu as mastermind of the End-Sars protest.
While the report of End-Sars protest Judicial Panel of Inquire never linked Nnamdi Kanu to the protest.
Sanwo-Olu is listed to come and testify to the End-Sars report, given that the panel was constituted by the Lagos State Ministry of Justice.
2. On the part of T.Y. Danjuma, Kanu is also accussed of setting up a security formation (ESN) without legal backing. Danjuma was a top security personnel in one of the government security agencies. Due to the persistent killings across Nigeria, he has once asked communities to defend themselves against insecurity. That government alone cannot do all. In his video, he didn't mention whether communities need any form of approval from government to have a formation to defend themselves against insecurity. This must have been one of the bases that made Nnamdi Kanu to mobilize community members to form ESN inorder to defend their communities against insecurity.
Hence, Danjuma need to appear in court to affirm his directives as evidenced in a video published by known media.
3. Malami's part is very sensitive as it boarders on how Nnamdi Kanu was repatriated from Kenya to Nigeria. Which the process is against the international treaty Nigeria signed. Malami served as the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation under Buhari.
4. On Burutai, They said he jumped bail, Burutai will explain to the court why he ordered the army to attack him MNK in his house leading to the death of over 25 persons, which lead MNK to flee and run for his life.
5. Wike will explain the obigbo massacre.
I think the list is cool to make a good defence. But the question is, are these people willing to present themselves to the court?
In Nigerian justice system, if someone refuses to appear in court after being subpoenaed, they can face serious consequences, including¹ ² ³:
- *Contempt of Court*: The court can hold them in contempt, which may result in fines, imprisonment, or other sanctions.
- *Arrest Warrant*: The court can issue a warrant for their arrest to secure their attendance.
- *Prevention from Giving Evidence*: They may be prevented from giving evidence in the case.
- *Adverse Findings*: The court may make adverse findings against them.
The consequences are quite severe, so it's essential to comply with a subpoena or seek legal advice if there are concerns about appearing in court.?”
