In addition, the attorney criticised Nigeria for not following its own laws. Despite the dismissal of the terrorism charges against him by the Appeal Court in Abuja on October 13, 2022, the IPOB leader’s detention has continued.
Reflecting on the situation, Ejimakor stated, “Mazi Kanu Kanu would have been released if Kenya had shown remorse by demanding his return to Kenya, if the United Kingdom had protected him as it did Umar Dikko in 1984, and if Nigeria had decided to abide by the law.
