Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered a sister in-law to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, Favour Kanu, to vacate the courtroom.
Papers News reports that Justice Omotosho barred Favour from witnessing further proceedings after discovering she was live-streaming the court’s proceedings via her social media platform.
The judge, who barred her from three subsequent court sittings, said he would have cited her for contempt of court, but listened to appeals from the defence lawyer, Kanu Agabi.
