Lawyer Sues Buhari Government Over Nigeria's Membership Of Islamic Organisation (OIC_OCI) | Sahara Reporters
A Lagos-based human rights lawyer, Malcolm Omirhobo, has sued the Nigerian government over the country's membership of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation .
The issue for determination raised in the suit is whether Sections 1, 10, and 42 of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution make it constitutional for the government to use public funds and the commonwealth of Nigerians to fund her membership of the OIC. He sought for “a declaration of this honourable court that the OIC is not a secular global organisation like the United Nations, ECOWAS and the AU, but an Islamic body established to promote, protect and preserve Islamic interests and values for the benefit of Muslims worldwide.
