Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court Abuja has stood down proceedings in the terrorism trial of Nnamdi Kanu, the self-acclaimed leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) till some minutes to 4 pm for him to pronounce sentence.
This is as the prosecutor urged Court to sentence him to the maximum punishment of the death penalty.
Prosecuting lawyer, Adegboyega Awomolo (SAN) said more than 75 security personnel lost their lives due to the terrorist activities of Kanu, his groups and followers, while many other innocent Nigerians were also killed and public property destroyed.
Awomolo said the subjection of Kanu to the maximum punishment will serve justice to all the victims of his acts of terrorism.
