A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has adjourned the trial of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, NNAMDI KANU to October 21.

KANU, who was earlier extradited into Nigeria from a foreign country, is facing terrorism-related charges before Justice BINTA NYAKO.

Justice NYAKO also ordered that KANU should remain in custody of the DSS and not a Correctional facility as requested by his counsel.

Our correspondent report that there was tight security at the premises of the Federal High Court Abuja leading up to the trial of NNAMDI KANU.

Journalists were also barred by officers of the Department of State Service from entering the court on the ground that they were not accredited to cover the trial.
