CJN Kekere-Ekun, Tsoho reassign Nnamdi Kanu's case file to a different judge

The case filed against Nnamdi Kanu, Leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has been reassigned to another judge.
This is contained in two separate letters by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, and Chief Justice (CJ) of the Federal High Court (FHC), Justice John Tsoho.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the two letters were addressed to Aloy Ejimakor, the IPOB leader’s lead counsel.
While the first letter from the CJN was dated Feb. 5, Justice Tsoho’s letter was dated March 4.
Justice Binta Nyako, the former trial judge, adjourned Kanu’s trial indefinitely on Feb. 10, following the IPOB leader and his legal team’s insistence that the matter be reassigned after Justice Nyako recused herself from the case on Sept. 24, 2024.
Meanwhile, Ejimakor, in a statement made available to reporters on Saturday, said that the CJN and the FHC CJ had finally responded to their complaint letters.
“Yesterday, before the legal team conducted our routine visitation to our client, we received two separate official letters regarding his case.
“The letters are momentous and somewhat pyrrhic.
“One letter was from the CJN, responding to a recent letter we had written to her, seeking her prompt administrative intervention (as the administrative head of Nigerian judiciary) on the matter of a proper and lawful reassignment of Kanu’s case, following the recusal of the judge that was conducting it.
“The other letter was from the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, informing us that the case has been reassigned to another Judge of the Federal High Court.
“Consequent upon these latest developments, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu instructed the legal team to publicly convey his sincere gratitude to the Chief Justice of Nigeria for her sound administrative discretions and the despatch with which she responded to our request.
“He also expressed his profound appreciation to members of the general public who publicly expressed their support for our righteous demands that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s case be reassigned to another judge, as the law demands,” he said.
Ejimakor said Kanu had always been ready to take his trial “because he is firmly convinced of his innocence.”
According to him, the perverse events of the past six months (from September 2024, when the recusal happened) posed portent dangers to his constitutional rights, particularly his right to a fair and speedy hearing.
“It was in view of this that we were propelled to resort to taking extraordinary measures to ensure that his case is properly reassigned and conducted in accordance with the law.
“So, now that the first steps have been taken by the authorities to do the lawful thing, Kanu and his legal team shall take stock and hanker down to the zealous preparation of his defense,” Ejimakor concluded.

Obi launches ID cards, online registration portal for Obidients

The Labour Party’s flagbearer in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, has launched an online registration portal and identity cards for members of the Obidient Movement, also known as Obidients, in Nigeria and the diaspora.
The move was disclosed in a joint statement issued by the Obidient Movement’s National Coordinator, Dr Yunusa Tanko and its Director of Strategic Communications and Media, Nana Kazaure, in Abuja, on Saturday, April 26, 2025.
The statement noted that the identity card features a QR code in the bottom right corner for authentication and displays the Nigerian flag for local members. For those in the diaspora, it displays the flag of their country of residence.
“Obidient registration portal supports Nigerians and fellow Obidients living in the diaspora. You will observe that the ID has a flag on it. For example, if you’re not resident in Nigeria, the top right-hand corner will carry the flag of your country of residence,” the statement partly read.

At the same time, the online portal features a QR code that allows users to verify the status of anyone claiming to be an Obidient before engaging in a business transaction or other dealings with that person.
“That way, we can all witness first-hand the embodying of our spirit of diversity, camaraderie, and unity and how far-reaching the messaging of the Obidient Movement is. The OBX is constant on the ID card. The Diasporan and Nigerian cards all start with the same prefix, which is “OBX”.
“The QR code on the bottom right-hand corner is there to authenticate your card, which can be scanned with any QR scanner, such as a smartphone, to give Obidients a secure and confident way of interacting with one another.
“So if you choose to support or do business with an Obidient, you can scan the QR code or verify the OBX ID online to confirm that the person is who and what they truly say they are and are who they truly claim to be,” it added.
