Ejimakor had argued that the Kanu could not be tried in Nigeria as there was no crime he had committed known to both Nigerian and international laws.
Justice Benson Anya of the Abia State High Court sitting in Umuahia, on Wednesday, rejected the challenge by the Nigerian government on the jurisdiction to hear the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu’s case.
This was contained in the post on Twitter by Kanu's Special Counsel, Aloy Ejimakor.
Ejimakor and other legal team members of Kanu are in Abia Court for the judgement on the IPOB leader's fundamental human rights suit.
Recall that the Nigerian government has colluded with the Kenya authorities to bring Kanu to Nigeria and arraign him over allegations of treason levelled against him.
Ejimakor had argued that the Kanu could not be tried in Nigeria as there was no crime he had committed known to both Nigerian and international laws.
