The Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, has said it is expecting the rule of law to thrive this time around in the final determination of the treasonable charge against the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

The statement is coming ahead of the scheduled December 15 Supreme Court judgment on the Federal Government’s appeal against the judgment of the Court of Appeal, which had earlier discharged and acquitted Kanu of all the charges of treasonable felony and consequently ordered his unconditional release.

Chairman of the NBA branch, Dickson Uba, who stated this yesterday at their annual 2023 Law Week, with a theme: “Ensuring the rule of law in a flawed judicial and political environment,” declared: “We are expecting the rule of law to be upheld. A situation where both the High Court and Appeal Court ordered his release and it was disobeyed does not augur well for the advancement of the rule of law in a judicial and political environment.”
