On March 21, 2025, Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of IPOB, the Indigenous People of Biafra, will stand before a new judge.

Kanu is scheduled to appear before Federal High Court Judge James Omotosho in Abuja.

Aloy Ejimakor, Kanu’s principal counsel, stated that the legal team is prepared and ready.

However, Ejimakor said that the accusations that Kanu will be facing before Justice Omotosho have not yet been delivered to his legal team.

Kanu has been charged because of his efforts to bring Biafra to reality.

Kanu had asked Federal High Court Judge Binta Nyako of Abuja to step aside from his trial in September 2024.

The Chief Judge of the Abuja Federal High Court disregarded Justice Nyako’s decision to recuse herself after his call.

Justice Nyako postponed Kanu’s case indefinitely in December.

In light of this, Kanu promised that he would never go to court again unless a neutral arbiter was chosen to hear his case.

It is now definite that Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu would appear before a new judge on March 21, 2025, according to Ejimakor. We are prepared and ready for this milestone.

He is scheduled to appear in court 7 before Federal High Court Justice James Omotosho.

The lawsuit will begin in a completely different way than it has in the past. All of the actions taken between his arrest in 2015 and his final appearance before Justice Binta Nyako are no longer available, including any ongoing appeals.

We may note that we received a hearing notice, but no charges have been submitted to us. He would be rearraigned on charges that we have not seen.

“On March 24, we truly have no idea what charges we will be facing. In order to prevent you from having time to review the allegations, the government consistently uses the same tactic: serving you the day before the hearing.

“On occasion, they serve you while you are in court, but we are unable to request a copy from the court because the charges would have been in the court registry.”
