The Nigerian government has put 101 Boko Haram suspects in detention at the Kirikiri Maximum and Medium Custodial Centres in Lagos without trial – a facility where they have been since July 2009 without trial.

SaharaReporters learnt that the suspects were arrested in the North-East and moved to Lagos State where they had also been denied access to members of their families and lawyers.

A group, Prisoners' Rights Advocacy Initiative, has sued the Federal Government to court by filing a Fundamental Rights Enforcement Suit on behalf of the 101 Boko Haram suspects.

SaharaReporters, which obtained the court papers and the names of the 101 suspects, gathered that the matter had been fixed for hearing on Monday, March 8, before Justice Liman at the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, Lagos State.

The 101 Boko Haram suspects in detention without trial since 2009 are:

Why not detain them in a facility in the north.

They should be transferred to Prisons in the North or East with immediate effect.

This is one of the very few lists in Nigeria where you won’t see Federal character and regions represented

Ogurube:
See Muhammad everywhere. This must be embarrassing to Muhammed.
