The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has accepted the verdict of the Supreme Court against him, according to IPOB’s Lead Counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor. The apex court had on December 15 set aside a judgment by the lower court that dismissed the terrorism charges against Kanu. Ejiofor stated that Kanu accepted the court’s verdict not because the court is perfect, but because he respects its final decision. The statement partly read, “The eventual verdict of the Supreme Court was conveyed to Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, and he expressed reservations about the outcome. “However, Onyendu elected to accept this outcome because of the finality of the Supreme Court decisions, and not because they are infallible, but because the Supreme Court is the final court in the land.
