Nnamdi Kanu's Defence Team Claims Case is Dead, Justifies October 20 Protest

The defence team of Nnamdi Kanu, led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Global Defence Consortium, asserts that the case against Kanu is dead, citing legal doctrines and Supreme Court judgments. They argue that the upcoming October 20 protest is justified as the case is no longer valid in court.

The team emphasizes that the court lacks jurisdiction to continue the trial, pointing to legal principles like double jeopardy. They also challenge the basis of the terror trial against Kanu under the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2013.

The defence team's stance raises questions about the legal proceedings and the future of Kanu's trial in Nigeria.
