Biafra: Court discharges Nnamdi Kanu

Nnamdi KanuEmbattled Director of Radio Biafra and leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu was on Wednesday discharged by a Chief Magistrate Court in Wise 2, Abuja led by Shuaibu Usman of all counts of criminal conspiracy and ownership of an unlawful society brought against him by the federal government.
