This Nigeria news platform understands that Kanu, through is legal counsel, made this known on Wednesday after he moved two applications brought before the court.

 

The first application is to move form 49 and an application objecting to the jurisdiction of the court.

Ejimakor said if the applications are denied they will move for the implementation of section 17 of the Federal High Court Act.

 

However, the Federal Government’s counsel, Adegboyega Awomolo, clarified that he lacks the authority to negotiate on behalf of the government, and instead suggested that Kanu’s team should approach the Attorney General of the Federation.

 

Justice Binta Nyako emphasized that the court’s role is to hear cases, not to solicit negotiations.
