Nnamdi Kanu, the convicted leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, has been reportedly moved to a correctional facility in Sokoto state.

Aloy Ejimakor, lawyer to Kanu disclosed this in a post on his X handle on Friday.

“Breaking: MAZI NNAMDI KANU has just been moved from DSS Abuja to the correctional facility (prison) in Sokoto; so far away from his lawyers, family, loved ones,” he said.

 The Federal High Court in Abuja, presided by Justice James Omotosho, had on Thursday, sentenced Kanu to life imprisonment, after finding him guilty on all seven – count charge on terrorism, brought against him by the Federal  Government.

‎In his judgment, the judge held that the prosecution presented sufficient and credible evidence to prove its case.

‎He noted that Kanu failed to enter a defence, instead choosing to rest his case on the prosecution’s evidence—a gamble the court said left it with no option but to convict, a judgment that Ejimakor described as a ‘travesty’ of justice.
