The detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, on Thursday verbally lashed out at Justice James Omotosho during proceedings in his high-profile terrorism trial.
Speaking in court, Kanu warned the judge, saying:
“God will punish you, now and forever.”
He went further to challenge the legitimacy of the court’s authority, declaring:
“Let it be on record; any judgment delivered in this court is rubbish. Where is the law?”
Kanu continued to question the legal basis for the trial, demanding that the judge identify the law underpinning the proceedings:
“Ask Omotosho, where is the law?”
The comments came amid rising tensions in the courtroom, with Kanu repeatedly asserting that the charges against him lacked legal validity.
