The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has said that he was ready to return to Nigeria to continue his trial if he would be guaranteed of his safety.

Kanu told the presiding judge, Justice Binta Nyako, through his counsel, Ifeanyi Ejiofor on Thursday, October 31, 2019.

Ejiofor told the court that the application to restore the IPOB leader’s bail so that he could face his trial was filed on April 1.

“We have an application for bail filed on April 1, 2019, the application was served on the prosecution and it is ripped for hearing.

“We urge the court to restore his bail on the ground that the court will guarantee his safety when he comes back to the country to continue his trial,” he said.

On his part, counsel to the Federal Government, Labaran Shuaibu, who told the court that he was just seeing the process, opposed to the application.

Shuaibu urged the court to adjourn the matter to enable them to file the necessary processes.

Delivering the ruling, Justice Nyako, who adjourned the matter till Jan. 16, said the only way he could guarantee Kanu’s safety was to keep him in the prison.
