Labour Party witness accused the deputy governor of renouncing his Nigerian citizenship
Deputy Governor, Obafemi Hamzat, took an oath of allegiance in the U.S. to renounce Nigerian citizenship.
The witness told the tribunal that Mr Hamzat, the third respondent in the petition, also applied for naturalisation as contained in Forms 8CFR/337 and N400. She, however, said she was not aware of the provision of Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution that dealt with dual citizenship. The All Progressives Congress counsel, Norris Quakers, asked the witness if she was aware that Mr Hamzat disclosed his American citizenship.
