“A Nigerian court has sentenced separatist leader Nnamdi Kanu to life in prison after convicting him on seven charges related to ‘terrorism’ in a years-long trial. In his ruling on Thursday, Nigerian Judge James Omotosho said prosecutors proved that Kanu’s broadcasts and orders to his now-banned Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) group incited deadly attacks on security forces and citizens in the southeast. The violence was part of his push for an independent Biafra state for the ethnic Igbo-dominated region.” (11/20/25)
