The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has found the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, guilty on count-1 of the terrorism charge the Federal Government preferred against him.

The court said it was satisfied that Kanu made series of broadcasts to incite violence and killings, in furtherance of his separatist agitation for Biafra.

Trial Justice James Omotosho based his decision on what he described as “uncontroverted evidence” that was adduced before the court by the prosecution.

‎Justice James Omotosho of the‎ Federal High Court this morning, ordered Nnamdi Kanu out of the courtroom for unruly behaviour midway through Thursday’s proceedings.

The trial judge is set to deliver judgment in a case spanning ten years.

The judge had earlier dismissed three fresh motions filed by Kanu, ruling them unmeritorious.
‎
‎As the court prepared to deliver judgment, Kanu objected, insisting he had not filed his final written address.

He raised his voice, accused the judge of bias, and declared that the court “did not know the law.”
‎
‎Following the outburst, security operatives escorted Kanu from the courtroom. Justice Omotosho is now set to proceed with reading the final judgment in the long‑running terrorism case.

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) yesterday struck a notorious terrorist hideout within the Sambisa general area.

Ehimen Ejodame, Air Commodore Director of Public Relations and Information,Headquarters, Nigerian Air Force, disclosed this in a statement.

It said that the Air Component of Joint Task Force Operation HADIN KAI initiated the attack following series of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions that tracked terrorist movements following the 17 October ambush on ground troops at KASHOMRI.

Persistent ISR coverage over KASHOMRI and Sambisa revealed suspicious activities and active terrorist structures at ARRA, prompting a deliberate, intelligence-driven strike.

NAF air assets acquired and engaged designated objectives through coordinated, successive passes.

The strike achieved its intended effect with the complete destruction of all identified targets, significantly degrading the terrorists’ operational capabilities and disrupting their command and logistics networks.

This successful mission underscores the NAF’s unwavering commitment to protecting the nation, supporting ground forces, and sustaining relentless pressure on terrorist elements across all theatres of operation.

The Nigerian Air Force remains resolute in its mission to neutralize threats, defend Nigeria’s territorial integrity, and secure enduring peace for all citizens.
