The Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, said such nations were supporting the “subversive” activities of Mr Kanu, and IPOB, despite the designation of the group as a terrorist organisation in Nigeria. “We have also established that Kanu is not alone in his subversive activities. ‘Friendly nations’Mr Malami also said there are “friendly” nations that have either banned the activities of IPOB or placed Mr Kanu on ‘Stop List’. Mr Kanu who was remanded in the custody of the State Security Service (SSS) was re-arraigned on seven counts of terrorism and treasonable felony.
