The judge sentenced Kanu to life imprisonment over count one, four, five, and six of the charge.

On count three, Omotosho sentenced the IPOB leader to 20 years’ imprisonment while slamming a separate five years on him on count seven with no option of fine.

The judge ruled that the sentence must run concurrently and be served in a protective custody in any custodial centre across the country.

In count one, Kanu was found guilty of act of terrorism against the Federal Republic of Nigeria by making broadcast by threatening that people will die and the world will be at a standstill.
