Meanwhile, Kanu did not appear before the court today. This is the second time the pro-Biafran leader would be absent from his court case, following the alleged invasion of his home in Abia State by the military on September 14.

Since the alleged invasion, Kanu has been declared missing his family.

However, his co-defendants and a serving Senator, Eyinnaya Abaribe, who happens to be one of the three persons standing as sureties for the bail granted the IPOB leader, was at the court proceeding today, Monday.
