Barrister Aloy Ejimakor and his team of lawyers filed a basic rights complaint against the Federal Government of Nigeria on behalf of Nnamdi Kanu, the banned Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), on Friday, March 25, 2022, in Umuahia, Abia State.
According to news reports, Barrister Ejimakor, Kanu’s Special Counsel and IPOB’s Legal Counsel, declared on that he is attempting to have Kanu’s fundamental rights against controversial extradition implemented.
The suit which he explained as “sui generis and primarily aimed at redressing the infamous unlawful expulsion or extraordinary rendition of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, which is a clear violation of his fundamental rights under Article 12(4) of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights”, is before Justice Evelyn Anyadike.
The Federal Government and Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami, were scheduled to testify today, but they did not show up because they did not prepare a defence, according to reports.
Irrespective of whether the FG’s officials turn up or not, the presiding court, Justice Anyadike, has delayed the hearing until April 27, 2022 for a definitive hearing.
