Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, on Wednesday arrived the Federal High Court, Abuja, as the trial terrorism charges kicks off.
SaharaReporters gathered that Kanu was brought to the courtroom at 1:25PM.
Kanu is expected to appear in court before Justice Binta Nyako today to resume the 15-count charge levelled against him by the Nigerian government.
His lead counsel, Mike Ozekhome had queried why his client was not given new clothes as directed by Justice Nyako.
A 15-count terrorism charge was slammed on Nnamdi Kanu by the Federal Government.
He pleaded not guilty to the charges and asked the court to discharge and acquit him without standing trial because the charges were incurably defective and not worth being defended.
Kanu had last Tuesday filed a preliminary objection challenging the competence of the new charge as well as the jurisdiction of the court to hear the matter.
According to the defendant, the fresh charge preferred against him were baseless, worthless, defective and could not stand the test of the law hence, should be dismissed.
Kanu made the submission through his lead counsel, Mike Ozekhome, SAN, shortly after his re-arraignment and his not guilty plea.
