Nnamdi Kanu Is Arrogant – Bashir Ahmad Slams IPOB Leader For âYellingâ At Lawyer

Bashir Ahmed, a former aide to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, has criticised Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), over his courtroom outburst, describing him as arrogant after a video surfaced showing him yelling at a lawyer.
Reacting to a viral video, Ahmed wrote: âNnamdi Kanuâs arrogance is on full display here. It seems he has no respect for others, especially his subordinates. Tapping a grown man aggressively like that and yelling at him, who does he think he is that no one should talk while he is talking? Kanu should know that respect is earned, not forced!â
In another tweet, Bashir Ahmad slammed the IPOB leader for yelling at a lawyer, describing him as ârudeâ and âarrogantâ.
âNnamdi Kanu is rude and arrogant. Tapping a grown man aggressively and yelling at him like that. Who does he think he is that no one should talk while he is talking? I blame that lawyer,â he added
In the courtroom footage, Kanu was seen passionately arguing about Nigerian laws, stating:
âListen, this is the law of Nigeria. The prosecution and this court donât know the law,thatâs the fact. Poor knowledge of the law is killing Nigeria.
âThis is a federally gazetted law of Nigeria, and the Chief Judge cannot tell Mr Nyako what to do. Itâs your law; just obey it! Thatâs why I do what I do.
âI agitate for Biafra, itâs my right! They turned it from a charge of criminal felony to terrorism.â
At one point, Kanu, visibly angry, shouted at a lawyer, saying:
âStop talking when Iâm talking!â
Earlier, Tribune Online reported that Kanu had challenged the jurisdiction of Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court in Abuja to preside over his terrorism trial.
He expressed a lack of confidence in her handling of the case and requested her recusal, a request that was granted.
The case has since been reassigned to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho, for reassignment to another judge.
Despite Kanuâs insistence that Justice Nyako lacked jurisdiction, the judge adjourned the matter indefinitely.
