The security presence is well up to the Federal Ministry of Justice, which is adjacent the court.

They are over 40 in number while most of them were masked.

Recall that Kanu was extradited to Nigeria in June for the continuation of his treason trial.

A police officer told our correspondent that they are acting on orders.
