EXCLUSIVE: AGF Malami speaks on Governor Soludo’s request to stand surety for IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu
According to Mr Kanu, the Biafran Republic would comprise people of Igbo-speaking origin from Nigeria’s South-east and some parts of South-south states.Mr Kanu’s trial on terrorism and treasonable charges has been dismissed by the Court of Appeal in Abuja.
Mr Malami, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria , explained that “when a matter is pending before the court, the right channel through which any request or perhaps concession can be presented for consideration is through the judicial process.” Due to the invasion, Mr Kanu fled the country prompting Mrs Nyako, the trial judge, to issue a warrant of arrest for the IPOB leader.
While the trial of the rest of the defendants has made some progress, Mr Kanu’s has been stalled since 2017.After nearly four years abroad, on 29 June 2021, Mr Malami in the company with the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba and SSS officials announced Mr Kanu’s arrest and repatriation from Kenya to Nigeria.
