Nnamdi Kanu and Fayose in court

Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose was at the Federal High Court in Abuja today Tuesday 25, April to witness ongoing trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, and his co-accused.

Fayose, who wore an Igbo cap to the court, told journalists outside the courtroom that Kanu is a Nigerian who was being treated unjustly for no reason.

The governor said it is unfortunate that many Nigerians are treated in the same way like Kanu.

His words: “This nation belongs to all of us, I have come to identify with the Igbo people. My position remains that Kanu will one day walk into freedom in this our great country.”

Meanwhile,  Nnamdi Kanu, has been granted bail by the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Kanu was granted bail by the trial judge, Justice Binta Nyako based on health grounds.

The court held that Kanu must produce three sureties, including a “highly respected and recognised jewish leader”.

According to the court, aside a jewish leader, Kanu must also produce a “highly placed person of Igbo extraction such as a Senator”, as well as “a highly respected person who is resident and owns landed property in Abuja”.

Each of the sureties are to deposit N100million each.

As part of his conditions for bail, Kanu, was expressly barred from attending any rally or granting any form of interview.“I must stress it here that the defendant must not attend any rally. He must not be in a crowd exceeding 10 persons”, the Judge warned.
