ABUJA, NIGERIA (AP) — A Nigerian court on Thursday convicted separatist leader Nnamdi Kanu of 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. He was re-arrested in 2021 and brought back from Kenya after initially failing to appear in court in 2015.
