The judge handling Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu‘s trial, Justice John Tsoho has returned the case file to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta, for reassignment.
Kanu’s counsels, led by Chuks Muoma had written a petition to the National Judicial Council (NJC), claiming that Tsoho made conflicting rulings on an application by the Department of State Services (DSS) to conduct a secret trial for him (Kanu), hence justice is not guaranteed for their client.
Muoma brought the matter up in court this morning, which led to Tsoho’s dropping of the case.
