Federal judge, Justice Binta Nyako has denied bail to the Pro-Biafra
leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who is accused of treason. Mr Kanu, who leads the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has been held in detention without trial
since October 2015.
Three other activists, who had also been campaigning for the
creation of the state of Biafra were denied bail.
Justice Nyako said she had denied bail to the suspects as
they were charged with serious offences, but said trial proceedings should be
expedited.
He was initially acquitted on some charges but the secret
police refused to release him and then pressed further charges.
