The Federal High Court in Abuja will deliver judgement in the terrorism case brought against the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on November 20.
Justice James Omotosho confirmed this date today, while ruling on the matter after Kanu failed to open his defence.
The IPOB leader exhausted the six days allocated to him by the court to present his case.
The judge held that since Kanu failed to utilise the opportunity granted to him to conduct his defence, he could not claim to have been denied his constitutionally guaranteed right to a fair hearing.
Meanwhile, Kanu on Friday made a motion challenging his trial on the grounds that terrorism was no longer an offence in Nigeria.
He said the earlier Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act had been repealed, and as such no valid charges against him.
Kanu maintained that there was no case against him and urged the court to dismiss the charges and allow him to go home.
