Aloy Ejimakor, the special counsel for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the incarcerated leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has disclosed four instances in which the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration erred on issues pertaining to his client.

The attorney on Monday cautioned the administration not to “misfire” for a fifth time in a statement on his Twitter page.

He made this comment while forwarding a tweet from John Campbell, a former US ambassador to Nigeria, warning the Nigerian government of the broad repercussions of disobeying the Appeal Court ruling that released and acquitted Nnamdi Kanu.

According to the former US envoy, Buhari’s administration erred by starting the extraordinary rendition of Kanu from Kenya in 2021.

Ejimakor stated that Nigeria shouldn’t establish a negative precedent as a lawless nation by disobeying the order of a court with appropriate authority over Kanu’s release.

He listed four instances where the federal government made mistakes, saying that Nigeria’s disobedience of a continental tribunal’s ruling on Kanu in 2018 was the first “mishandling.”

“The extraordinary rendition was the second. Putting Kanu on trial was the third. Disobeying the United Nations was the fourth. And the likelihood of disobeying the judgment of the Court of Appeal will be the fifth.”

Ejimakor called on “Nigerians of means and influence, and the international community to intervene in persuading President Muhammadu Buhari to promptly comply with the court order which discharged Kanu from all the criminal charges pending against him”.

He also recalled that Buhari had on two occasions promised to obey any court order that bears on the release of Kanu, adding that “a promise of this sort is a debt.”
