Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, has
prayed an Abuja Federal High Court to compel the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen
Tukur Buratai to pay him the sum of N10m as damages for the psychological
trauma he is subjected to in the cause of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous
People of Biafra, IPOB’s, trial.
Abaribe made the appeal in an
application before the Justice Binta Nyako-led court.
He also prayed the court to
compel the Army Chief to either produce Kanu or pay the N10m bail bond attached
to his release.
Abaribe who is one of those
standing surety for the elusive IPOB leader also prayed the court to order
Buratai to offset all expenses he incurred in the cause of Kanu’s trial.
The court had earlier adjourned
Kanu’s trial till December 5, 2017 over the absence of the trial judge, Binta
Nyako.
Also, Justice Nyako had on
October 17, ordered that Abaribe and the other sureties appear before her to
show cause why a bench warrant of arrest should not be granted against them.
