Last year, on October 13, the Appeal Court discharged Nnamdi Kanu, citing his extraordinary rendition from Kenya. However, the Supreme Court has now set aside the Appeal Court's judgment, asserting that Kanu should proceed with his trial.

Despite acknowledging that the bail of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should not have been revoked, the Supreme Court has taken a firm stance on the legal proceedings. It emphasized that the invasion of Kanu's home by the Nigerian Army on September 14, 2017, was deemed illegal. Nevertheless, the court maintained that Mr. Kanu is both liable and eligible to stand trial.

This decision marks a significant point in the legal saga surrounding Nnamdi Kanu, highlighting the complexities and legal intricacies involved in his case. The Supreme Court's ruling reaffirms the commitment to due process while addressing specific irregularities in the legal proceedings. The implications of this decision are likely to resonate within both legal and socio-political spheres, shaping the course of Nnamdi Kanu's ongoing legal battle.
