A Federal High Court in Abuja has fixed further hearing for March 4 in a fresh N1 billion suit filed by the detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, against the Federal Government and three others.

The others are: the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), the Department of State Services (DSS), and its Director General.

Justice James Omotosho rescheduled hearing in the fundamentals rights enforcement suit yesterday following the absence of the applicant’s lawyer.

At the mention of the case, no lawyer announced appearance for the applicant, while the respondents were represented by two lawyers – Enoch Simon (for the Federal Government and the AGF) and I. Awo for the DSS.

Simon informed the court that his clients were only served with the hearing notice and had not been served with the suit’s originating processes.

The lawyer said he was in court out of respect for the law.
