go.comThe Federal High Court, Abuja on Tuesday ordered Senator Eyninnaya Abaribe,
and two others standing as guarantors for the leader of the proscribed
Indigenous People of Biafra ( IPOB ), Nnamdi Kanu, to explain his whereabouts.
It can be recalled that Nnamdi Kanu was granted bail by Justice Binta Nyako on April 24, 2017.
However, Kanu did not show up for his trial which was billed to commence on Tuesday.
However, Kanu’s co-defendants appeared in court.
Out of the three sureties to Kanu, only Abaribe was present in court with his lawyer.
Immanuel Shalum Okabenmabu and Tochukwu Uchendu were not only absent, but did not have legal representations.
Mr. Ogechi Ogunna, who is the counsel to Abaribe said his client had filed a motion seeking to
be discharged as Kanu’s surety.
The court stressed that Abaribe’s motion to be
discharged as Kanu’s surety could not be heard until Nnamdi Kanu appeared in court.
Justice Nyako presented Abaribe with three (3) options:
1. Abaribe is to produce Nnamdi Kanu in court before he can apply to be
discharged as a surety.
2. He should be ready to forfeit his N100m bail bond.
3. Lastly, he should request to be given time to produce
the defendant in court.
