BREAKING: Federal Government Closes Case Against Nnamdi Kanu, Court Adjourns To July 18th.

The Federal Government of Nigeria has formally closed its case against the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

This development was disclosed by one of Kanu’s lead counsels, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) shortly after court proceedings on Wednesday.

According to Ejimakor, the presiding judge granted the defense team 14 days to file their written address in support of a no-case submission — a legal argument that Kanu has no case to answer. The prosecution was also given 14 days to respond.

With this, the matter has been adjourned until July 18, 2025, for further proceedings.

“Today, the Federal Republic of Nigeria CLOSED its case against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu… Thank you for your support,” Ejimakor posted.

The trial of Nnamdi Kanu continues to attract local and international attention, with human rights groups and observers closely monitoring the process. Kanu has remained in custody since his controversial rendition from Kenya to Nigeria in 2021.
