The family of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, has raised concerns over what they describe as the refusal of a court to grant a production order that would allow him to be moved from Sokoto to Abuja for the hearing of his appeal.
According to the family, Kanuโs legal team had approached the court seeking a warrant that would ensure his safe transfer to the Federal Capital Territory, where the appeal is scheduled to be heard. However, they claim the court did not grant the request, a development they believe could hinder his right to fair hearing.

They expressed frustration over the setback, noting that Kanu remains in custody despite multiple efforts to secure his appearance in court. The family appealed to the judiciary to ensure that due process is followed and that Kanu is given the opportunity to properly defend himself.
They also called on the federal government and relevant authorities to respect court procedures and facilitate his transportation to Abuja, stressing that justice must not only be done, but must be seen to be done.
