The Digest:
The terrorism trial of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu has been postponed to October 16, 2025, due to the absence of a crucial medical report.
Key Points:
- Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja adjourned the case.
- The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) failed to present its report on Kanu's health status as ordered.
- The court had mandated an NMA board to investigate his alleged deteriorating health.
- The report will determine if the DSS facility can treat him or if he should be moved to the National Hospital.
- The DSS lawyer applied for a one-week adjournment, which was unopposed.
- The court has set the new date for the medical board to submit its findings.
- The outcome will directly influence the future course of the high-profile trial.
