Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra Nnamdi Kanu has pleaded not guilty to the 15 charges brought against him by the Federal Government in the case of alleged treasonable felony.

He pleaded not guilty before Justice Binta Nyako when the case resumed at the Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday.

The Federal Government had filed fresh terrorism charges against the detained IPOB leader before the Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday.

The action increased the initial counts bordering on treasonable felony and terrorism against Kanu from seven to 15.

But during his trial on Tuesday which was held amid heavy security presence, Kanu objected to the fresh charges.

The case was then adjourned till Wednesday for him to take his plea.
