Justice James Omotosho of a Federal High Court, Abuja, has fixed November 20 for judgment in the terrorism charges brought by the federal government against the Biafra nation agitator, Nnamdi Kanu.

The judge fixed the date on Friday, November 7 following the refusal of Kanu to open his defence as he had on several occasions indicated.

Kanu, who had earlier filed a motion on Friday, challenged his trial on the grounds that terrorism was no longer an offence in Nigeria as of today.

He claimed that the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act had been repealed and as such no vaild charges against him.
