ECOWAS COURT FULL REPORT : NIGERIA GOVERNMENT ABSCONDS FROM COURT HAVING FAILED TO MANIPULATE THE JUDGES.
The indigenous people of Biafra took the Nigerian government to ECOWAS court today demanding for justice for the unlawful detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu; but surprisingly, the Nigerian Defense Council absconded from the court sitting. However, they submitted a letter only this morning claiming they have a case in Kaduna, as the sole reason for their absence. At the beginning of the court session, Nigerian government, through the Minister of Justice applied for adjournment. There was a short interrogation between the ECOWAS judge, Hon. Justice Friday Nwoke and Nnamdi Kanu’s Counsel, Barr. Ifeanyi Ejioffor. Barr. Ifeanyi Ejiofor pleaded to be given compensation of one million naira, as a result of his wasted transportation fare. He also pleaded for short adjournment of the trial. His pleas were granted, and the case was adjourned to November 8 2016. According to the presiding judge, the proceedings must hold on November 8 whether the Nigerian government appears in court or not.
