Justice James Omotoso of a Federal High Court, Abuja has just rejected a N1 billion suit filed by the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu against the Federal Government and the Department of State Services (DSS).
The presiding Judge held in his judgment that the IPOB leader failed to show evidence that his conversation with his lawyers was bugged by the DSS or that his lawyers were stopped from taking notes from him during the conversation.
Justice Omotoso therefore held that there was no evidence before him to show that he was denied a fair hearing as claimed in his suit.
Consequently, the court dismissed the suit for lacking in merit.
Kanu had, through his lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, filed a N1billion suit for the enforcement of his fundamental rights while in detention.
