Justice Tsoho returned Nnamdi Kanu’s case file to her to handle, saying two other judges were previously recused from the case.

Since she had handled the case for the most part, she was deemed the most suitable judge to see it through to its conclusion.

However, the Chief Judge directed that if at the next hearing of the case, Kanu still insists on recusing Justice Nyako, he must file a written motion on Notice, with an affidavit, stating all the grounds for requesting the recusal.

Kanu must also serve it on the prosecution team, and appear before Justice Nyako for her review and determination, then she can make her decision.
