The most widely read newspaper in Nigeria

The trial of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, resumed at the Federal High Court Abuja on Monday without Kanu’s presence in court.

When the matter was called up, the prosecution counsel, M. B. Abubakar, informed the court that the matter was slated for hearing and that they were ready to continue. Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, informed the court that there was a pending application before the court to transfer Kanu from the custody of the DSS to the correctional centre.

Justice Binta Nyako stated that the trial cannot continue in the absence of Kanu since he is not available to stand his trial.

Are u sure this man is still alive?

Punch newspaper is now buhari government's mouth piece after they were conpensated/bribed .....it is really unfortunate 👎

Person wey de custody the de absent too?

Free mazi Nnamdi kanu the early the better

You see why he ran for his life? When he was here, they wanted to kill him and he escaped for his life, but now in their custody, they prevented or failed to bring him to court. What a nation!

Now that he is even in your custody,he is still absent,whats your excuse now

The Nigerian courts have started their recess till September or October there about.

,MaziNnamdiKanu is the custody of Nigerian DSS since his illegal extraordinary rendition from Kenya,yet the people that put today's date for court hearing. Seized him not to appear in court. These zoo government think that they can play with our intelligence.

Gutter media we know you demons for this, twisting the narrative. Curse evil black demons.

Kanu absent? Was he supposed to varnish from custody to appear in court?

Please Stop Deceiving us Kanu is Dead, You guys are just trying to replace him with Solomon from Israel

Ahh oct far oo ...justice delayed is justice denied 🙅‍♂️

Then grant him bail already... You can't just keep him in custody like that.

Something definitely fishy,we are just too shady in this country,nothing ever straightforward,just lies,manipulation and always trying to perverse justice.We are waiting for the reason DSS didn’t bring him to court.🤷🏾‍♂️

Absent from court. You would think he woke up and send he wasn't in the mood. The terrorists that kidnapped him refused to produce him in court. It's also possible they've tortured him badly, caused injuries and need more time for him to heal. We're dealing with terrorists here.

Kanu absent or The government that kidnapped him failed to bring him to court? Evil journalism in an evil country

Mmmmmmm.🤔

MNK is not alive anymore. Nigeria must provide him now! I feel like to start killing Fulanies right now. Let there be war!!!!!!

Nigeria is a failed state,end Nigeria now.

What do you mean by Absent..? Someone that was kidnapped.. Even a child wont report this..

No problems wherever he is nothing should happen to him no matter what

This is crazy nation

I think MNK is dead, let them say it na

GOD is a patient GOD , but the only GOD of justice. Let's wait and see the end of the oppressors soon.

Unserious people.,if the federal government is afraid of failing woefully and loosing to MNK they should say than showing stupid incompetence with the excuse given...!

They have nothing against this man, this is how they played the game in 2015 it’s not new to us but if anything happen to Kanu Nigeria will turn desert mark it

Interesting..

May he is enjoying reception with DSS! They all love DSS custody.

Maybe they forgot to fuel the car that was supposed to bring him to court, or maybe it broke down on the road & they couldn't find mechanic on time. Guys, pls stop pretending to be surprised. We are in a zoo and you guys are acting surprised that animals are behaving like animals

Abi they have finally killed him, or maybe administered sleeping tablet on him so that he misses court and his detention is extended. I don't see the U.K doing anything about the situation ( I could be wrong). IMO, the trial is not even supposed to go on pending the outcome of..

How can someone you're holding captive be absent.

Everything about this country is negative. Giant of Africa yet nothing tangible about it.

Adjournment game plan.Oloshi kinda of Gov't

Ah shit here we go again

what the hell is wrong with this zoo nigeria

This clearly shows Nigeria is a Zoo as MaziNnamdiKanu said! MBuhari is a failed leader

It was an intentional act. That's why Buhari left for London. This wickedness must Stop

😯😯😯😯 Really?

Zoological country UN USAmbUK 10DowningStreet BorisJohnson Israel_katz Israel USArmyEURAF

This is so Useless!!! He's absent or that DSS refused to bring him to court. BoycottPunchNewsPaper!!!!

This is their plans, but it won't work

Media house fail to know that this mnk trial was just a pull off to distract Nigerians so that buharist will succeed in traveling

We all know the game plan. AloyEjimakor and his team should demand to see MNK asap. Benin 🇧🇯 Republic is more governed than Nigeria 🇳🇬. Shame!

Absent from court as if he is coming from the comfort of his house, They better let the world knows what they have done to him because he is in their custody.

NorthBiafra They should make sure nothing has happened to MaziNnamdiKanu FreeMaziNnamdiKanuNow

Use the right word for absent

The injustice people face in Nigeria judiciary system abysmal. A person will serve a sentence during the span of trial/court hearing before actually being sentenced...

We all know there will be no Trial today ! So it not a surprise to us .At the end the children of God will be victorious

DSS failed to provide MaziNnamdiKanu to court. They should tell us where our Leader is

Because their bozz has just ran away and will return close to that date..

This is an insult to the sanity of Nigerians, how will an accused in custody be absent from court yet the court cannot ask DSS to go back and bring him same day or next day. July to Oct......is this a joke

I know DSS will not bring him... no respect for LAW shame on this government, shame on attorney general of the federation, malami. Big shame

Where is Kanu?

What are this stupid set of government running from. They are bold to bring him to count secretly but fail to bring him to court in open. This is a zoo.

Auto pilot country

That's d game.

He remains in custody till Oct 21 st
