The trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has been officially relocated to the Department of State Services (DSS) headquarters in Abuja.
Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court ordered the change of venue from the courtroom to the DSS facility, citing the need to inspect a shipping container linked to the case.
According to the judge, the container, allegedly used by Kanu to smuggle a radio transmitter into Nigeria, will be physically examined as part of the proceedings.
The equipment in question was reportedly intended for broadcasts on Radio Biafra, the IPOB-run station known for promoting the separatist movement.
Kanu is currently standing trial on terrorism charges related to his campaign for the secession of Biafra from Nigeria.
Authorities have accused him of inciting unrest through his broadcasts and public statements.
