Nigerian court convicts separatist leader Nnamdi Kanu of terrorism-related charges
ABUJA: A Nigerian court on Thursday convicted separatist leader Nnamdi Kanu of seven terrorism-related charges. Kanu founded the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), which has been accused of terrorism and extra-judicial killings in the country’s eastern region. Kanu had called for the creation of an independent state out of southeastern Nigeria. He has sought to revive the short-lived Biafra, a seceded region of Nigeria between 1967 and 1970, which sparked the Nigerian Civil War during that period. At least 3 million people were killed before the Biafran troops surrendered.
