Nnamdi Kanu’s Lawyer, Ejimakor, Comments Ahead Of Monday’s Trial
“#MnkLegalTeam is primed and ready. #NoShaking.
“The #MNKLegalTeam and supporters worldwide appreciate the Supreme Court of Nigeria in the case of FGN v #MNK, which held that: ‘Crime cannot be committed [by the Nigerian Government] as a valid means of crime prevention and control.’
“When a government established by law resorts to committing crimes [such as extraordinary rendition, kidnapping, and criminal abduction] to control and prevent crime, the rule of law is endangered.
“The question we ask then is: What becomes of justice, the people, and society when the sanctity of the rule of law is destroyed by those employed to uphold it? It’s long overdue to do JUSTICE. #FreeMNK.”
The Abuja Federal High Court will resume Kanu’s terrorism trial following the Supreme Court’s reversal of the Appeal Court’s decision to discharge and acquit him of terrorism charges.
Meanwhile, Ejimakor, Kanu’s counsel, stated that there is a charge of treasonable felony against the agitator. He clarified that the federal government filed two treasonable felony charges against Kanu from 2015 to late 2021.
