Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, Abuja, has indefinitely postponed the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
The adjournment, announced on Monday, comes after Kanu maintained that Justice Nyako should not preside over his case due to her previous recusal.
Earlier, Kanu had been ordered to appear before the court on February 10, 2025. However, in January, he filed a petition against Justice Nyako with the National Judicial Council, accusing her of judicial misconduct.
Shortly after, the IPOB leader demanded that his case be transferred to the South-East if no other judge at the Federal High Court in Abuja was willing to handle it.
