Nnamdi Kanu’s Lead Counsel, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, has praised the United States for its condemnation of the Federal Government’s actions regarding the detention of the IPOB leader. The US report, part of the ‘2023 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices: Nigeria’, criticized Nigeria’s secret police for violating Kanu’s rights during his arrest and extradition, drawing accolades from Ejimakor for its diplomatic courage.
In a press release titled ‘Thank you, America, for officially and publicly acknowledging the unlawfulness of Nnamdi Kanu’s rendition,’ Ejimakor’s statement expressed gratitude to the US government for its acknowledgment of Kanu’s ordeal. The recognition of the unlawful nature of Kanu’s arrest and extradition underscores the legal team’s longstanding argument, emphasizing the distinction between unlawful rendition and lawful extradition, and the profound implications of each.
The statement highlights the significance of the US government’s stance, which validates the legal team’s efforts and underscores the importance of international scrutiny in upholding human rights. Ejimakor’s commendation serves as a testament to the collaborative efforts aimed at ensuring justice and accountability in Kanu’s case, signaling a pivotal moment in the pursuit of legal redress for human rights violations.
