Following a Federal High Court ruling in Abuja on Monday that dismissed his applications for bail and transfer from the Department of State Services custody, Kanu addressed journalists at the court premises, asserting that the Terrorism Prohibition and Prevention Act prohibits his trial in Nigeria.
Kanu referenced Section 2, Subsection 3(f) of the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act, which he claims defines anyone attempting to try him as a terrorist.
He stated, “The Terrorism Prohibition and Prevention Act says that I cannot be tried in Nigeria. That is the law of Nigeria. I can never be tried in any court of law in Nigeria. That is what the law says.
“Anyone standing trial or coming to try me is a terrorist. That is what the law says, not me. Section 2, Subsection 3(f) of the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act says so.
