A federal high court in Abuja has dismissed a suit filed by Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), against the federal government and Department of State Services (DSS).
In a judgment delivered on Monday, James Omotosho, the presiding judge, held that Kanu failed to provide credible evidence to back the allegation of violation of his fundamental rights by the defendants.
Omotosho said claims that operatives of the DSS denied Kanu access to his lawyers, and that the officials eavesdropped on his conversations with his lawyers, could not be established.
