The verdict was delivered early Thursday afternoon, November 20, 2025, after Nnamdi Kanu, who had openly challenged the court\u2019s authority to issue a judgment in his long-running legal battle with the Federal Government, was escorted out of the courtroom by security personnel.<\/p>\n

Justice Omotosho handed down the conviction on the first of seven counts against the IPOB leader. He is still delivering rulings on the remaining six charges, each of which carries a maximum penalty of death. The sentencing for Nnamdi Kanu is expected to be announced later.<\/p>\n

Before announcing the conviction, Justice Omotosho accused the IPOB leader of being unruly and disrespecting the court. He said that the rudeness of the IPOB Leader<\/a> climaxed with his disruption of the court\u2019s proceedings.<\/p>\n

Kanu has been in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) since June 2021, after he fled Nigeria but was arrested in Kenya under controversial circumstances, his lawyers describe as \u201cextraordinary rendition\u201d.<\/p>\n

The IPOB leader is currently facing seven terrorism-related charges bordering on alleged incitement, running an unlawful group, and acts threatening national security, allegations he vehemently denies.<\/p>\n
