The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, will appeal against the life imprisonment and other jail terms handed down by Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja, his former lawyer and consultant, Aloy Ejimakor, has said.
Speaking to reporters after the sentencing on Thursday, former lawyer and consultant to the convicted IPOB leader, Aloy Ejimakor, said Kanu would challenge the judgment at the Court of Appeal.
He said, “From here, we are heading to the Court of Appeal. It is the only court in the country that sits as a jury, and we are going to approach the justices there to review what happened in court today.”
Ejimakor described the sentencing as a “travesty of justice” and expressed confidence that the appellate court will overturn the conviction.

“If the Court of Appeal disagrees with us, we will proceed to the Supreme Court. But by God Almighty, Nnamdi Kanu is not going to stand convicted. He is going to get overturned,” he added.
