Nnamdi Kanu fights his bail conditions says it violates his constitutional rights

The proponent of the Biafra movement and leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, is apparently fighting the bail conditions handed to him by an Abuja Federal High Court before he was released along with several others after being on trial for treasonable offenses.

 According to the Punch newspaper Kanu’s application filed on July 1, 2017, stated that parts of the bail conditions prohibiting him from being seen in a crowd exceeding 10 persons, granting press interviews and holding or attending rallies, violated his constitutional rights.

Nnamdi Kanu had already breached his bail conditions before filing the motion, as he had granted press interviews and even recently led and addressed rallies of huge crowds against the holding of governorship election in Anambra State.  The trial has been adjourned until October 17, as the prosecution is yet to file its response to the motion.
