Nnamdi Kanu Dismisses Legal Team, Opts to Defend Himself

Detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has reportedly dismissed his legal team, declaring his intention to personally conduct his defence before the Federal High Court, Abuja.

Kanu, who is standing trial on charges bordering on terrorism, is said to have informed the court of his decision, requesting a 90-day window to prepare for his self-defence.

The development comes amid renewed public agitation for his release and the arrest of activist Omoyele Sowore, who convened a recent protest in Abuja calling for Kanu’s freedom

The case has been adjourned to Friday

Police Arrest Sowore at Federal High Court Over Protest to Free Nnamdi Kanu

Security operatives of the Nigerian Police on Thursday arrested activist and publisher, Omoyele Sowore, at the Federal High Court in Abuja. His arrest is reportedly linked to Monday’s protest calling for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who is being held on terrorism-related charges.

Sowore’s legal representatives, Deji Adeyanju and Inibehe Effiong, have alleged that the police have refused them access to their client, insisting that a formal clearance must be obtained before any visit is allowed

Nnamdi Kanu Opens Defence, Lists 23 Witnesses Including Wike, Sanwo-Olu and Ex-Military Chiefs

Detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has agreed to open his defence, marking a major turn in his long-running trial.

This comes just hours after protests in parts of Abuja led by Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 elections, calling for Kanu’s release.

Kanu had earlier filed a motion challenging the court’s jurisdiction, but in a fresh application on Tuesday, October 21, he informed Justice James Omotosho that he was ready to defend himself, citing a previous court order directing him to begin on October 24, 2025.

He revealed plans to call 23 witnesses divided into two groups—“ordinary but material witnesses” and “vital and compellable witnesses”—to testify under Section 232 of the Evidence Act. He also requested 90 days to conclude his defence, indicating he may now be representing himself instead of his legal team led by Chief Kanu Agabi (SAN).

Among those he intends to summon as witnesses are former Defence Minister Gen. Theophilus Danjuma (rtd), ex-Army Chief Gen. Tukur Buratai (rtd), Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Imo Governor Hope Uzodinma, FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, Works Minister Dave Umahi, former Abia Governor Okezie Ikpeazu, former Justice Minister Abubakar Malami (SAN), and ex-NIA DG Ahmed Rufai Abubakar.

Kanu said he would personally testify to “deny the allegations” and explain the political context of his actions, assuring the court that he would not waste its time and that “justice must be seen to be done.”

Meanwhile, on the same day, a magistrate court in Abuja ordered the remand of Kanu’s special counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, and 12 others who joined the protests demanding his release. They face charges of conspiracy, unlawful assembly, and public disturbance, and will appear in court again on October 24.
