Justice James Amatosho of the Federal
0:02
High Court sitting in Abuja on Friday
0:04
ruled that the detained Bafra agitation
0:07
leader Nami Kanu has case to answer
0:10
because the Nigeria government
0:11
prosecution team have provided some
0:14
evidence that requires explanations from
0:16
the detained Bafra leader. This the
0:19
coordinating lawyer to Nambdi Kanu
0:21
Barister Aloy Mccor said the judgment of
0:24
the court does not mean Nambdi Kanu has
0:26
been pronounced guilty. Rather, the
0:29
ruling indicated that he should give
0:30
explanations to certain evidences the
0:33
federal government of Nigeria brought
0:35
before the court. It would be recalled
0:37
that the ruling on the no case
0:39
submission filed by Nambi Carano that
0:41
was earlier slated to be held on October
0:43
10th, 2025 was abridged and rescheduled
0:46
to Friday the 26th of September 2025.
0:50
Justice James Omatosho also rejected
0:53
request by Caro to be transferred from
0:55
custody of the Department of State
0:57
Services DSS to the National Hospital
1:00
Abuja for medical examination over
1:02
alleged deteriorating health issues. The
1:05
court subsequently ordered the president
1:07
of Nigerian Medical Association NMA to
1:10
constitute an investigation committee to
1:13
examine Kanu's medical condition and
1:15
submit a report to it in 8 days
1:17
following objection by DSS to his
1:19
request to be transferred to National
1:21
Hospital for second opinion on his
1:23
health condition. We had earlier in the
1:26
year reported that the case between the
1:28
federal government of Nigeria and the
1:30
detained leader of the indigenous people
1:32
of Bafrae Nami Kanu apparently took a
1:35
new technical twist after one of the
1:36
lawyers of the detained Bafra leader
1:39
Paul Ericoro San presented and played
1:42
three videos which the federal high
1:44
court sitting in Abuja later admitted in
1:47
evidence. the videos of former Nigeria
1:49
Chief of Army Staff, retired General
1:52
Theophilus Danjuma, saying security
1:54
operatives in the West Africa country,
1:57
specifically the armed forces are
1:59
working together with the armed bandits
2:01
to kill Nigerians, stressing that if
2:04
Nigerians depend on the armed forces to
2:06
curb insecurity, they will all die one
2:09
by one. Also that of Governor Hope of
2:12
Imho State saying politicians are behind
2:15
killings in the state. Lastly, and the
2:17
most interesting video played at the
2:19
court to counter the testimony or
2:21
statement made by the DSS prosecutor
2:24
witness over Nambdi Kanu led IPOB
2:27
founding Eastern Security Network ESN
2:30
allegedly created by group of youths in
2:32
the southeastern geopolitical zone of
2:34
Nigeria often referred to as Bafra land
2:37
to fight in self-defense against fani
2:40
armed bandits or terrorists that were
2:42
advancing and killing people in the
2:44
eastern state during the era of
2:46
President President Muhammadu Buuhari
2:48
was that of the director general of
