Imperial:Gbam! That's exactly what I said in these forums a couple of weeks ago. I checked all his reported sicknesses by certified doctors that the government appointed to examine him and I found non of them life threatening and they can be treated in hospitals in Nigeria. His real ailments are different from his own fabricated ailments which he purposely made to enable him to escape justice by running away from Nigeria. The fool hired doctors to concoct imaginary sicknesses that he doesn't have, in order to fool Nigerians and travel abroad, knowing fully that he is never coming back to Nigeria if he is allowed to go abroad for treatment. Nigeria is smarter than him.Now that the NMA has diagnosed his real ailments and certified him fit for trial, his lying ass is fried like fried chicken. The fool will remain in the DSS Zoo forever like I said. It's Igbo Wayo he wants to pull on Nigeria and he failed woefully.Hahaha!KayodeNnamdi Kanu’s ailment not life-threatening, he’s fit to stand trial – NMA Panel
--Daily PostThe team empanelled by the President of the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA, has said that the ailment complained about by detained self-acclaimed leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, is not life-threatening.The medical team was ordered by Justice James Omotosho, midway into Kanu’s terrorism trial before a Federal High Court in Abuja, to ascertain Kanu’s actual health status following conflicting claims on the issue by medical experts engaged by the prosecution and the defence.
In the panel’s report, submitted to the court on October 13 by the prosecution team led by Adegboyega Awomolo (SAN), part of which was read in open court during Thursday’s proceedings, it was stated that Kanu’s ailment is not life-threatening.
The team concluded that Kanu is fit to stand trial.
Based on the information contained in the report and in the absence of any objection from lawyers to the parties, Justice Omotosho said the court was convinced that Kanu could proceed with the trial.
Justice Omotosho subsequently granted the defendant six consecutive days, beginning from October 23, to open and close his defence.
The judge granted an oral application by defence lawyer, Kanu Agabi (SAN), that Kanu’s legal team be granted a private consultation opportunity with the defendant outside the premises of the Department of State Services (DSS).
Agabi said the defendant’s legal team was afraid that its consultation with him (Kanu) could be tapped or recorded by the DSS.
Justice Omotosho also acceded to Agabi’s request that the private meeting with Kanu be held in the courtroom, during which only the defendant and his lawyers would be present.
By the court’s directive, the private consultation meeting will hold within the courtroom between 9 a.m. and 12 noon on October 22, while the trial will resume on October 23.

Pray for Edo State.- - - - -Okpebholo directs Edo cabinet members to wear Tinubu-branded outfits
15th October 2025File: Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo.
Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has directed members of his cabinet to openly show their support for President Bola Tinubu by wearing branded outfits bearing the president’s insignia.
The governor gave the directive on Tuesday while swearing in newly appointed commissioners and inaugurating commissions and boards of agencies in Benin.
Okpebholo, who attributed his electoral victory to Tinubu’s support, said loyalty to the president must reflect even in appearance.
He said, “This could not have happened if we did not have a responsible president. We have done many elections here, and the major problem we have had is that the president is not with us, but today we say thank you.
“I will not forgive any commissioner that is not wearing this cap. In our exco meetings, if you are not wearing a suit and you are coming to the meeting without this Asiwaju cap, you will go back.”
The governor urged the commissioners to see their appointments as a call to serve the people rather than an opportunity for self-enrichment.
He also said he would not tolerate corruption in the government, adding that their appointment is not for self-enrichment.

He stressed that his administration’s focus is on “practical governance,” not propaganda, and that their performance would be measured by tangible results across the state.
He added, “While I congratulate you on your deserved elevation, I want to warn that your appointment is not for personal enrichment. You are not here for money-making, but for service, for sacrifice, and for a better life for Edo people.”
“I hereby call on you to brace up for action, as your success will be measured by your impact in bringing about better services and opportunities to our people.
“May I remind you that this administration has zero tolerance for corruption and you’re expected to display discipline, teamwork, and a shared sense of purpose.
“Most importantly, I expect loyalty to the people of Edo State. You must always remember that History will judge us for our actions and not our intentions.”
The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), was among the dignitaries present at the event.
