or<\/p>\n<p>\u201cb) Any other offence (being one corresponding to an offence described in section 20 of this Act) of the same nature as the offence for which he was surrendered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProvided that a person falling within this section shall not be detained or tried for an offence by virtue of paragraph (b) of this section without the prior consent of the country surrendering him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He stated that Article 12(4) of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights (Ratification and Enforcement) Act Cap A9, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004, which provides as follows:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA non-national legally admitted in a territory of a State Party to the present Charter, may only be expelled from it by virtue of a decision taken in accordance with the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ejiofor said, \u201cThe above laws, for the avoidance of any doubt, are all Nigerian laws on extradition and extraordinary rendition of citizens from foreign lands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOther international Instruments and Conventions to which Nigeria is a state party and bound by, which made similar provisions include: The OAU Convention on the Prevention and Combating of Terrorism; Principles and Guidelines on Human and Peoples\u2019 Right while Countering Terrorism in Africa; and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Ejiofor, Kanu said, \u201cPublic perspective\/positions on the possible implication of the Supreme Court\u2019s judgment of 15th December 2023, on the above laws, will further demonstrate the grave prejudice Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has suffered in the hands of the Federal Government of Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kanu encouraged his supporters to remain focused, keep their eyes on the ball and continue to conduct themselves peacefully.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Supreme Court&#8217;s judgment, delivered by Justice Emmanuel Agim but written by Justice Garba Lawal, nullified the Court of Appeal&#8217;s decision for Kanu&#8217;s release Nnamdi Kanu accepts Supreme Court judgement blocking his release from DSS custody Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), criticized the Supreme Court&#8217;s judgment on Tuesday.
