The Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday was told that Nnamdi Kanu, the incarcerated leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, was not found with any weapon of terrorism or violence when he was arrested in Lagos on October 15, 2015.
This was the submission of a Federal Government witness, who is an operative of the Department of the State Service, DSS and code named PWAAA.
The witness also informed the court that no arms of public disturbance was recovered from the lady, who was arrested alongside Kanu.
During a cross examination by Kanu Agabi SAN, Kanu’s lawyer, the witness admitted that all the items were personal properties of the pro-Biafra agitator.
PWAAA noted, however, that though said the recovered items might not be ordinarily offensive, Kanu’s intention might be something else.

Furthermore, he informed the court that none of the items were analysed by him because he only had instructions to  arrest the defendant and get his statement.

However, while answering a question, he  admitted analysing the cell phone of the defendant, adding that the report of the analysis was not made available to court because it was immaterial.

He also admitted that the recovered items might have depleted in value since they were impounded 10 years ago.

He also stated that he did not bring anybody before Kanu to confront him on any issue of terrorism, admitting too that  Kanu’s statement was obtained in the absence of his lawyer.
