When the matter was called, Abubakar announced appearance for the AGF.
However, no lawyer was in court to announce appearance for the leader of the IPOB.
Abubakar then told the court that Kanu’s counsel, led by Ifeanyi Ejiofor, staged a walkout because some of the lawyers, including the American lawyer, Bruce Fein, were denied access.

Justice Bin ta then adjourned the matter until Jan. 19 and Jan. 20 for trial continuation.
