The Federal High Court, Abuja Division, will deliver the judgment in the alleged terrorism trial of Nnamdi Kanu on live broadcast this morning.

The court registrar confirmed the development on Thursday morning.

Cameramen of different television stations, including NTA, Channels TV, AIT, TVC, were among the workers of broadcast stations in the courtroom with their gadgets for the live transmission.

Justice James Omotosho had, on November 7, fixed today for the judgment.

The judge fixed the date after Kanu’s defence was foreclosed following his insistence that he would not enter his defence under repealed laws.

The judge held that Mr Kanu, having exhausted the six days given to him by the court to conduct his defence, had waived his right to do so.

The judge said he would have extended the days allocated to Kanu to conduct his defence if he had opted to open it.

He said Mr Kanu, having failed to utilise the opportunity given to him to conduct his defence, could not claim to have been denied the constitutionally guaranteed right to a fair hearing.

Meanwhile, as at the time of filing this report, the court has yet to begin proceedings.
