The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Director of Radio Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu may have rejected the bail granted him by Justice Binta Nyako on Tuesday 25th, 2017 insisting that he would not leave the prison unless his co-accused were released alongside with him.
Nyako had earlier granted bail to Kanu refusing the remaining two – Benjamin Mmadubugwu and Chidiebere Onwudiwe . The IPOB leader is also expected to provide three sureties one of who must be a serving senator, a jewish religious leader and highly respected person and must own a land in anywhere in Abuja.
The bail bond was set at N100 million for each surety. As part of his bail conditions, Kanu was ordered never to grant any press interview pending the outcome of his trial. The court also ordered that he will not be in a gathering of more than 10 persons. The judge said Kanu's bail will be revoked if any of the orders are flouted.
But in a shocking move baffling even to his accusers, Kanu portrayed a “we-live-or-die-together” pose by quickly hurrying back into a waiting Black Maria van conveying him alongside others back to Kuje prison, even as his legal team is set to meet to review the bail conditions.
