🛑 COURT DRAMA: Nnamdi Kanu’s Trial Sparks Outrage as Judge Rejects Evidence Obtained “Illegally” 🛑
📅 June 18, 2025 – Courtroom Update
In today’s tense and emotional courtroom session, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu once again faced allegations that have continued to divide national opinion and test the strength of Nigeria’s judicial system.
During the continued cross-examination of Masked Witness 4, dramatic revelations and controversial statements were made—but it was the judge’s explosive reaction that sent shockwaves across the courtroom.
🧑⚖️ THE BIG MOMENT:
The prosecution tendered key evidence said to have been obtained from Nnamdi Kanu while he was denied legal representation. But the judge angrily rejected the documents, declaring:
🗣️ “This exhibit cannot be relied upon by this court because it was obtained through illegalities!”
📌 Human rights observers say this is a landmark moment, spotlighting the growing global scrutiny over how the trial is being handled.
💣 WILD CLAIMS FROM MASKED WITNESS 4
The anonymous witness, who admitted to being a law enforcement informant, claimed:
He saw human heads and ESN members allegedly eating human flesh during a raid.
That Kanu "authorized the Owerri prison break."
That Kanu "owned a transmitter used for illegal broadcasts."
And that an IPOB member confessed to killing 30 people out of 2,000 targets (according to a Vanguard publication).
🚨 But here’s the shocker:
All this testimony was based not on physical evidence, but a newspaper article—a move legal experts called highly unprofessional.
⚖️ WHAT THIS MEANS
The defense did not object to the admission of the article, but many Nigerians are questioning the credibility of a case built on “hearsay” and media publications, rather than hard investigation.
📣 “Is this justice or political theater?” one courtroom observer whispered.
📌 As the trial continues, one thing is clear: This case is no longer just about Nnamdi Kanu—it’s about Nigeria’s legal integrity,
