AN Abuja Division of the Federal High Court has revoked the bail earlier granted to tNnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

The court presided over by a judge, Binta Nyako, gave the order on Thursday and directed that a bench warrant should be issued for Kanu’s arrest.

The court said it has given the order because Kanu had failed to appear in court after his bail was granted in April 2017.

Kanu, a separatist leader calling for an independent Biafran country, jumped bail when he escaped out of the country.

He has since appeared in several videos online criticising Nigerian leaders and government. – Independent
