The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has sued the Director General of the National Intelligence Agency, Ahmed Abubakar, for imprisoning him (Kanu) in Kenya for eight days, before his extradition to Nigeria.<\/p>\n

The special counsel to the IPOB leader<\/a>, Alloy Ejimakor, disclosed this on Wednesday morning, via his Twitter handle, were he posted a pictures containing the suit filed, where he described Kanu\u2019s detention in Kenya as \u201cfalse imprisonment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ejimakor said the suit was prompted by new evidence gathered implicating the DG beyond the \u201cinfamous extraordinary rendition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ejimakor said, \u201cYesterday (Wednesday) I filed a suit against Ahmed Abubakar, the DG of National Intelligence Agency (NIA) for his eight days \u2018false imprisonment\u2019 of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in discovereed evidence that implicated the DG\/NIA beyond the infamous extraordinary rendition.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the suit, the court gave Abubakar 14 days to appear or be represented in court, adding that failure to show up would mean that judgment would be given in the DG\u2019s absence.<\/p>\n

The suit filed in the High Court of Abia State reads in part, \u201cYou are hereby commanded that within 14 days after the service of this Writ on you inclusive of the day of such service, you do cause an appearance to be entered for you in the Umuahia Judicial Division of the High Court in Abia State in an action at this suit of Mazi Nnnamdi Kanu\u2026.and take notice that in default of your so doing, the claimant may proceed therein and judgment may be given in your absence.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe claimant\u2019s claim is for (i) A declaration of this Honourable Court that the defandant\u2019s arrest of the claimant and his imprisonment of the claimant at said location in Nairobi, Kenya amounted to false arrest and false imprisonment.<\/p>\n

\u201c(ii) A declaration that the defendant acted in bad faith and\/or abused his public office in falsely imprisoning the claimant at the said location in Kenya. (iii) An order of this Honourable Court directing the defendant to pay the claimant the sum of N20,000,000,000.00 (Twenty Billion Naira only) being general and exemplary damages\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

This comes just few days after Kanu\u2019s N20bn suit against the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami was thrown out by the Federal High Court in Abuja.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
