Charge sheet did not identify any terrorist act committed by Nnamdi Kanu, says defence team

Onyedikachi Ifedi, a member of the Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Defence Consortium, says the charge sheet that led to the IPOB leader’s conviction fails to identify a distinct terrorist act allegedly furthered by Kanu’s broadcasts. Counts 1 and 2 concern broadcasts said to further terrorism; counts 4 and 5 allege incitement to kill security personnel and their families, while count 8 concerns directing IPOB members to make bombs. Ifedi argues that describing broadcasts as being “in furtherance” of terrorism does not identify the primary offence, which the prosecution had to specify in the charges. He made the challenge as the Court of Appeal delayed listing Kanu’s appeal against his conviction.

US singer Chris Brown avoids jail over UK nightclub brawl

American singer Chris Brown was sentenced Monday at Southwark Crown Court in London to eight months in prison, suspended for a year, after pleading guilty to affray over a 2023 brawl at Tape nightclub. Prosecutors alleged he struck a victim’s head twice with a glass bottle in what they described as a vicious, unprovoked attack; his plea avoided a trial on several other charges. Co-defendant Omololu Akinlolu also pleaded guilty to affray and received a four-month sentence, suspended for a year.
