DRAMA IN COURT AS NNAMDI KANU'S LAWYER THREATENS TO PULL OUT.

...Case adjourned till september.
Chuks Muoma(SAN) lead council on IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu's case has
threatened to withdraw his services from the trial. Muoma declared
that he would be withdrawing from the case following a supposed
"extraction" of his client by another lawyer.
The client in question is one Benjamin Madubugwu, who incidentally
is the second defendant. He was supposed to be on trial together with
Nnamdi, but announced to the court that he didn't want Muoma to
represent him again.
Meanwhile, Benjamin's new lawyer, amidst the confusion, begged
Muoma, explaining that he. Had no intention of 'stealling or
snatching' away his client. Muoma, a senior lawyer, described the act
as an affront to him. But Amobi Nzelu, Benjamin's lawyer is of the
opinion that every defendant has a right to choose his own counsel.
Still on this, Muoma insisted that the case be adjourned to give
Mr. Benjamin and hisnew lawyer enough time to make studies on the
application. Since no objections were raised, the judge adjourned the
case to september 26, 2016, for hearing and trial.
