A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), to enter a defence in his ongoing terrorism trial.
Justice James Omotosho issued the order after Kanu failed to enter his defence for the fourth day, following the prosecution's closure of its case and the court's overruling of his no-case submission.
The judge stated that if Kanu fails to open his defence on November 5, he will be deemed to have waived his right to do so.
