Africa Daily News, New York recalls that Kanu was arrested in July 2021 in Kenya and was repatriated to Nigeria to continue his trial.
Last week, the Nigerian government re-arraigned him before Justice Binta Nyako of an Abuja Federal High Court.
On the other hand, Sunday Igboho is facing trial in Benin Republic after he was arrested while attempting to travel to Germany.
The agitator and his wife left Nigeria, after the Department of State Services, DSS, declared him wanted over guns found in his house.
