The Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, who was prosecuted alongside others on treasonable felony charges but granted bail afterwards, has filed a motion to fight the bail conditions granted to him by the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Punch reports that in his application filed on July 1, 2017, Kanu stated that parts of the bail conditions prohibiting him from being seen in a crowd exceeding 10 persons, granting press interviews and holding or attending rallies, violated his constitutional rights.
However, the IPOB leader reportedly breached his bail conditions before filing the motion, as he had granted press interviews and even recently led and addressed rallies of huge crowds against the holding of governorship election in Anambra State.
The trial has been adjourned until October 17, as the prosecution is yet to file its response to the motion.
