I Am Still Entitled To $800million - Nnamdi Kanu by Nobody: 11:16am On Dec 04, 2017 |
The leader of the
proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra ,
Nnamdi Kanu , has said that despite
being granted bail by the Federal High Court in
Abuja where he is being prosecuted alongside
others on charges of treasonable felony , he is
still entitled to the $ 800 m compensation for
his alleged unlawful arrest and detention in
2015 .
According to punch, This is contained in his response to the motion
filed by the Federal Government asking the
Community Court of the Economic Community
of West African States sitting in Abuja
to dismiss a fundamental human
rights enforcement suit filed by the IPOB leader
.
Kanu had filed the suit on March 3 , 2016
demanding $ 800 m as compensation from the
Federal Government for his alleged
unlawful arrest in 2015 and detention. But the
Federal Government, through its lawyer , Mrs .
Maimuna Shiru, filed its motion on November
13 , stating that Kanu having been granted bail
by the Federal High Court in Abuja on April 25 ,
2017, and allegedly jumped bail , the judgment
of the ECOWAS Court on the suit would serve
no purpose.
But Kanu , through his lawyer , Mr. Ifeanyi
Ejiofor, objected to the Federal Government’s
motion contending that granting bail to the IPOB
leader was just a partial satisfaction of
prayers sought in the suit.
He maintained that the ECOWAS Court had the
power to grant his client the $ 800 m
compensation sought since the IPOB leader ’s
rights had been violated.
Ejiofor stated in his written address “ We submit
therefore that the court has powers to order for
payment of compensatory damages when
found that the plaintiff ’s right has
been violated.”
Wil Kanu continue to agitate? know more here
