The Federal High Court in Abuja has sentenced the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, to life imprisonment.
The presiding judge, Justice James Omotosho, handed down the sentence on counts one, four, five, and six, opting for life imprisonment instead of the death penalty.
The judge also handed Kanu a 20-year jail term on count two and five years on count seven.
Justice Omotosho delivered the judgment after convicting Kanu on all seven counts of terrorism offences.
