Security was increased around the Federal High Court on Monday ahead of the resumption of the trial of Nnamdi Kanu.
It was gathered that the major entrances to the court were blocked.
Mr Kanu is the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
He was first arrested by Nigerian authorities in 2015 on an 11-count charge bordering on “terrorism, treasonable felony, managing an unlawful society, publication of defamatory matter, illegal possession of firearms and improper importation of goods, among others.”
The Federal Government is expected to bring new charges against him on Monday.
