Nnamdi Kanu’s wife endorses husband’s apology to judiciary, judge, others
Lolo Uchechi Okwu-Kanu, wife of the detained Biafra nation agitator Nnamdi Kanu, has endorsed the apology offered by her husband to the judiciary, Justice Binta Nyako, Chief Adegboyega Awomolo, SAN, and others over his expressions of anger during last year’s trial proceedings on terrorism charges.
The apology was tendered on Kanu’s behalf on Friday by his new lead counsel and former Attorney General of the Federation, Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN.
In a statement issued on Friday evening, Lolo Uchechi Okwu-Kanu clarified that Chief Agabi acted to smooth over tensions within certain segments of the bar and bench, following Kanu’s legitimate but anger-fuelled outbursts against Justice Binta Nyako’s court, which led to her recusal.
The statement, titled “Dignity in Justice Omotosho’s Court of the Federal High Court in Abuja,” was personally signed by Kanu’s wife.
It read in part: “In court today, my husband, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, accepted the need for Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN, the new lead counsel, to address the court of Justice James Omotosho on what transpired in Justice Binta Nyako’s court, which shook the foundations of the Nigerian judiciary.
“This clarification was duly delivered by Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN—a towering figure, twice Attorney-General, twice Minister of Justice, and a former Senator.
“Chief Agabi, stepping into Onyendu’s brief, acted to smooth over tensions within certain segments of the bar and bench, caused by his legitimate but anger-fuelled outbursts against Justice Binta Nyako’s court, which led to her recusal.
“Chief Kanu Agabi’s stature demanded it; he could not represent Onyendu without restoring decorum acceptable to the Abuja bench in particular and the judiciary in general.
“Remarkably, Justice James Omotosho, presiding, also apologised to Onyendu for the prolonged delay and mishandling of his trial over the years, acknowledging his ordeal at the hands of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
“Chief Agabi’s move was strategic, balancing Onyendu’s fury with the court’s dignity. I suggest we read the full text of the statement before commenting.
“Chief Agabi spoke in his personal capacity, expressing his vision for an amicable resolution (dialogue) and peaceful co-existence. It is not rocket science.”
