The Federal High Court in Abuja Friday fixed December 13 as date for judgment in a suit seeking an order to compel the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buaratai, to produce the missing leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.

Justice Binta Nyako adjourned for judgment after hearing extensive presentations from Kanu’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, and two Senior Advocates of Nigeria, Augustine Alegeh and Akinlolu Kehinde, who represented the Chief of Army Staff.
