However, Mike Ozekhome SAN, leading the legal team of Kanu, objected, because he has two applications challenging the validity of charge and jurisdiction.

“Ozekhome said the entire counts of the charge are watery, baseless and like a pack of cards designed to fall.
In view of Ozekhome’s application for an adjournment, the trial judge, Justice Binta Nyako adjourned to February 16, for commencement of trial.
