Today in the trial of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed secessionist group; Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has been adjourned till January 19, 2021.



The adjournment came shortly after Kanu’s lawyers staged a walk-out over the refusal of operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) to allow some other members of Kanu's legal team to gain access into the courtroom.

It will be recalled that Kanu was illegally returned from Kenya to Nigeria on June 29, and he has been in DSS custody since then.
