Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the jailed leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, has gone to court to dispute the Federal High Court’s directive ordering that his trial be held in secret.<\/p>\n

He asked the court to declare that the provisions of Order III of the Federal High Court Practice Directions (On Trial of Terrorism Cases) 2022, were already the subject of Section 36 (4)(a) and (b) of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, as amended, and consequently, \u201cthey areotiose, inoperative and outrightly ultra vires.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kanu in the origination summons filed by his lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, asked the court to declare it \u201cinvalid, null, void and of no effect whatsoever.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Federal High Court’s Chief Judge, Justice John Tsoho, and its Chief Registrar were named as defendants in the suit, which was obtained by reporters on Monday.<\/p>\n

Justice John Tsoho issued a new practice directive for the court’s handling of terrorist matters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The cases of Nnamdi Kanu, Bureau de Change operators charged with terrorism financing, and Boko Haram suspects are now being heard in court.<\/p>\n

Justice Tsoho stated that the new practice direction was made in the exercise of his constitutional powers as enshrined in Section 254 of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 Constitution (as amended).<\/p>\n

Under the new arrangement, the court said media coverage of proceedings is strictly prohibited.<\/p>\n

\u201cCoverage of proceedings under these practice directions is strictly prohibited, save as may be directed by the court. A person who contravenes an order or direction made under these practices shall be deemed to have committed an offence contrary to Section 34(5) of the Terrorism (Prevention) Act 2011 as amended,\u201d the document stated.<\/p>\n

The IPOB leader also wants an order of perpetual injunction restraining the defendants , whether by themselves, servants, agents, privies, and all other officers and agents of the Federal High Court of Nigeria from applying and enforcing the provisions of the Federal High Court Practice Directions (On Trial of Terrorism Cases) 2022.<\/p>\n

Others reliefs were \u201cA declaration that the failure of the 1st defendant to first seek and obtain the approval of the Federal Executive Council (or the National Council of Ministers) of the Federal Republic of Nigeria prior to enacting the Federal High Court Practice Directions (on Trials of Terrorism Cases), 2022, as required by Section 44 of the Federal High Court Act renders the Federal High Court Practice Direction (On Trial of Terrorism Cases) 2022, ultra vires, null and void.<\/p>\n

\u201cA declaration that Order III Rules 3(b) and (d) of the Federal High Court Practice Directions (On Trials of Terrorism Cases) 2022, which respectively empower a Federal High Court trying terrorism cases \u201cto receive evidence by video link<\/a>, and to receive written deposition of expert witness\u201d are inconsistent with Items 23 and 68 of the Exclusive Legislative List as well as Paragraph 2(b) of Part III of the 2nd Schedule to the Constitution which confers on the National Assembly the exclusive power to make rules of evidence, both substantive and adjectival and are therefore ultra vires, null and void to the extent of the inconsistency<\/p>\n

\u201cA declaration that Order IV Rule 2 of the Federal High Court Practice Direction (on Trial of Terrorism Cases) 2022, which provides that a person who contravenes an order or direction made under these Directions shall be deemed to have committed an offence contrary to Section 34(5) of the Terrorism (Prevention) Act 2011, (as amended) isotiose and inoperative because the National Assembly had already covered the field vide Section 34(5) of the Terrorism Prevention Act 2011, as amended.<\/p>\n

\u201cA declaration that the rule-making powers of the 1st Defendant under Section 254 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended, is limited to the premises of the Federal High Court and do not extend to outside its perimeters, which are under the exclusive responsibility of law enforcement agencies such as the Police, DSS, etc; and<\/p>\n

\u201cAn order of this Honorable court declaring the Federal High Court Practice Directions (On Trial of Terrorism Cases) 2022, unconstitutional ultra vires, invalid, null, void, and of no effect.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
