Ejimakor Reacts To Claim That Nnamdi Kanu Wants to Negotiate With FG

 It was earlier reported that Kanu sought negotiation with the Nigerian government on the terrorism charges.

Nnamdi Kanu's lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor has clarified reports that the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu asked to negotiate with the federal government.

 

Recall that it was reported that Kanu, through his counsel Ejimakor, sought negotiation with the Nigerian government on the terrorism charges against him during the Federal High Court session in Abuja on Wednesday.

 

Reacting to the reports, Ejimakor labelled the report as false, explaining that the court invoked Section 17 of the Federal High Court Act and directed the Nigerian government and Kanu to seek reconciliation.

 

He said, “The news titled ‘Kanu seeks negotiation with FG’ is false & a deepfake news meant to twist an idea that was muted as an alternative to trial by the Court & the parties.

“The truth is that the Court directed the parties to consider the option of reconciliation which the law allows.”
