The Biafra Nations League, BnL, has criticized the adjournment of Nnamdi Kanu’s trial until April 8, 2022, saying the Nigerian judiciary was playing the script written by the federal government.
In a statement received by OAK METRO on Friday, Ebuta Takon, deputy leader of the BnL, said the adjournment of the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was aimed at prolonging his imprisonment.
While noting that the events that took place in court on February 16, 2022 were stage-managed by the government and the presiding judge, Binta Nyako, Takon warned that this would only create more problems for Nigeria.
Nigeria government wants more problems and the problem is already facing them, the Deputy leader of BnL said.
Nnamdi Kanu, who was kidnapped in Kenya and illegally repatriated to Nigeria in 2021, faces charges of treason and other baseless crimes for calling for a referendum on an independent state known as Biafra.
