The Federal Government has lost its bid to transfer the suit challenging the extraordinary rendition of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) from Umuahia to Abuja.
The Federal High Court sitting in Umuahia, Abia State on Wednesday insisted that it has the jurisdiction to hear and determine the suit.
This was disclosed by Kanu’s Special Counsel, Aloy Ejimakor on his Twitter handle.
He however said that the matter was still ongoing.
“Breaking: Federal High Court, Umuahia denies the Federal Government’s application to transfer the ‘extraordinary rendition’ suit to Abuja, and rules that Umuahia has the jurisdiction to hear and determine the suit. Reading of the rest of the judgment continues”, he wrote.
