Nnamdi Kanu News: Buhari Government Lose Bid to Transfer Nnamdi Kanu Lawsuit from Umuahia to Abuja
On Wednesday, the Nigerian government was unsuccessful in its attempt to move the IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu’s extraordinary rendition lawsuit from Umuahia to Abuja.
In Umuahia, Abia State, the Federal High Court argued that it had the authority to hear the case and render a decision.
Aloy Ejimakor, Kanu’s Special Counsel, revealed this in a tweet while reiterating that the case was still pending.
His tweets read;
“Breaking: Federal High Court, Umuahia denies the Federal Government’s application to transfer the “extraordinary rendition” suit to Abuja, and rules that Umuahia has the jurisdiction to hear and decide the suit,” the author stated. The remainder of the verdict is read aloud.
The Special Counsel contested Kanu’s kidnapping and unusual rendition from Kenya.
He is asking the court, among other things, to order his repatriation to Kenya, where he was abducted, or to the UK, where he currently resides.
