The video captures Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in court during his ongoing trial for terrorism.
Dressed in white, he’s gesturing emphatically while holding books, directly confronting the judge by saying, “You don’t know what justice means,” amid disputes over his detention and case handling.
Kanu maintains his innocence and often disrupts proceedings to highlight perceived injustices in Nigeria’s judiciary.

Court Fixes Date For Judgment In Kanu’s Terrorism Trial
The Federal High Court, sitting in Abuja, has fixed November 20 to deliver its judgment on the seven-count terrorism charge filed by the Federal Government against the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.
Justice James Omotosho set the matter down for judgment after Kanu “failed to open his defence to the charge within the six days that were allotted to him by the court.”
Instead of opening his defence, Kanu, who is representing himself after he “disengaged his lawyers,” filed a motion on Friday wherein he “challenged the competence of the charge and the jurisdiction of the court to try him.”

The court had initially stood down the case for one hour after the defendant “indicated his intention to file his defence.”
However, the subsequent process Kanu filed revealed he was maintaining his stance that his prosecution was based on a “non-existent law.”
He argued that the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act, under which the charge was brought against him, “had since been repealed.”
