Nigeria Urged To Exit ICC by 9Ebisco: 6:55am On May 30, 2018
Nigeria has been advised to exit the International Criminal Court (ICC) if it intends to successfully fight the war against terrorism.

This was contained in a communiqué at the end of the 2nd International Conference on Terrorism and Small Arms Conflict in Nigeria organised by the Global Amnesty Watch (GAW) in partnership with the Institute for African Studies of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN).

In the communiqué signed by the Chairman of the Drafting Committee, Mutiullah Olasupo, participants, including human rights lawyers and experts on peace and conflicts, agreed that a special task team should be set up to review and respond to any report emanating from Amnesty International, UNICEF or their associates.

“We demand that the Federal Government immediately activates the necessary steps for Nigeria to exit the Rome Statute and its creation, the International Criminal Court, to ensure that the military can fight terrorism without the cloak of blackmail constantly hanging over it. The ICC is constantly used to harass and intimidate military commanders and troops to discourage them from being committed to defeating Boko Haram.”

Participants evaluated Nigeria’s war on terrorism in the three years of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, saying a lot of progress has been made.

The participants noted that South Africa, Burundi, Kenya and the Gambia had taken different steps towards exiting the ICC because of its selective justice and usage as a tool for modern day colonialism.

Discussants include GAW’s Global President, David Falt, Global President; Professor Pita Ogaba Agbese of the University of Northern IOWA, (USA); Senior Expert/Practitioner in Humanitarian Law, London, Stuart McGhie and Dr Malfouz Adedimeji, a former Director, Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Ilorin Kwara State.

These foolish group should go and read about ICC before spewing trash.
There is no room for exit in ICC if you have a case hanging on your neck because ICC see it as nothing but blackmail ..
Its impossible to exit if you have a case with them like Nigeria ..
If its that easy, why is it that most of the world leaders who have been embarrassed by ICC didn't exit during their own time ?.
What made you think that they didn't attempt to exit to avoid prosecution ?

Its just like when someone is inaugurated to be a member of an organisation, then when that person violates the rules and regulation of such organization which might attract jail term, he will start processing his exit.... No, you must serve the jail term ist, which is the part of of the agreement you signed during registration as a member .
People should go and read about ICC very well. There is no room for blackmailing which Nigeria is struggling to do .

So that genocide will be committed without anybody questioning?
This people simply wants to return us to military regime, they aren't compatible with democracy and it's tenets.

Is Nigeria the only country that is fighting terrorism? Let Every sensible Nigerian rise up against this move.

Islamization is real but they don't know how to conquer Igboland.

They've conquered middle belt, they've conquered yorubaland, they've conquered South South, but they can't conquer Igboland at all.

Buhari is looking for an escape route but whether he likes it or not, he shall be kicked like a mad dog to the Hague after his tenure ends next year. The blood of innocent Nigerians he killed will fight him hands down, even dogs and baboons won't be able to save him

Global Amnesty Watch is not an arm of Amnesty Int'l (which APC and FG hates). It is a local parallel body sponsored by APC and FG (there is nothing global about it) and headed by a useful Yoruba Muslim BMC idiot paid with a few shekels.

Buhari keeps proving he has no intention to adhere to international statutes as regards human rights ... Buhari intention to exit the ICC is only a preamble to the evil that awaits Nigerian Christians if Buhari wins a second term where the his plan is launch a full scale Jihad against Nigerian Christians before the expiration of that term .

The buhari Federal government are planning to commit war crimes and want to get away with it by not facing persecution. They want all their middlebelt atrocities to be unchecked.

If this government can be so heartless now they need another term, what will befall us if they get it and no longer need us. #NeverAgain
