365news gathered that Nnamdi Kanu, the self-admitted head of IPOB, a banned organization, boycotted Monday’s hearing before a Federal High Court in Abuja in protest over the Federal Government’s disobedience to a Court of Appeal ruling that ordered his release from jail.
Justice Binta Nyako was informed of the unwillingness to respect the High Court by Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, attorney for the Federal Government.
He told the court that he had rejected all attempts to persuade him to change his mind.
Kanu was said to have stood his ground not to appear in court until the October 13 judgment of the Court of Appeal is respected and obeyed by releasing him from the custody of the Department of the State Service, DSS, in Abuja.
