A Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to former Attorney General of the Federation Abubakar Malami, his wife Asabe Bashir and his son Abdulaziz in the alleged N8.7 billion fraud case filed against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

Court rejects Nnamdi Kanu’s bid to leave Sokoto prison

The Federal High Court in Abuja has rejected an application by IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu seeking to be moved from the Sokoto Correctional Centre to a custodial facility closer to Abuja. Kanu had asked to be transferred to Kuje Custodial Centre in the Federal Capital Territory or Keffi Custodial Centre in Nasarawa State.​ He made the request through the Legal Aid Council in an ex parte application, arguing that a transfer would help him effectively pursue his appeal. In the alternative, he asked to be moved to any facility within the court’s jurisdiction, including Suleja or Keffi.​ Justice James Omotosho declined to grant the request on Monday, ruling that such an order could not be made without hearing from the Federal Government. The judge held that the government and other parties must be given the chance to respond before any […]

Appeal Court strikes out Nnamdi Kanu’s rights violation case

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has struck out an appeal by convicted IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, ruling that his case alleging violations of fundamental rights by the Director General of the DSS and the Attorney-General of the Federation lacked merit and had become academic. The court held that Kanu’s complaint could no longer stand following his November 20 conviction for terrorism offences by a Federal High Court and his subsequent life imprisonment and remand in prison custody.​ In the lead judgment, Justice Boloukuromo Moses Ugo said that once Kanu’s counsel, Maxwell Opara, confirmed that his client was now held at Sokoto prison, the request to be moved from the DSS facility to Kuje prison was no longer one the appellate court could grant. The judge added that Kanu had previously indicated a preference for prison custody, so his prayers […]
