Kanu Prison Transfer Request Denied

A Federal High Court in Abuja declined an ex-parte request by Nnamdi Kanu seeking transfer from Sokoto Correctional Centre to a facility closer to Abuja or Nasarawa. The judge held that the government and corrections authorities must be heard first.

The case was adjourned with a directive that the request be brought by motion on notice, keeping Kanu’s custodial location unchanged for now.
