The lawyer of IPOB’s leader, Kanu, accused the Supreme Court ‘betrayed the constitution’

A member of the legal team representing Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Biafra Indigenous Peoples (IPOB), accused the Supreme Court of “committing suicide of Jurisprudence” by allowing his sustainable trial despite the previous stop by the appeal court.

In a statement issued on Thursday, Onyedikachi’s lawyer if Id described the decision of the High Court as a “strange betrayal of the constitution” and ratification of “violations of executive law” which damage the basic rights of Kanu.

“We condemn the strongest requirements that may be in the Nigerian High Court, a strange betrayal of the constitution in FRN V. Nnamdi Kanu,” said Ifedi. “By canceling a valid termination based on the abduction of the state sponsored, the court illegally has been derived from the rights of Chapter IV that cannot be unreasonable, canceling a constitutional ban on double hazards, and reducing Nigerian justice into arms violation of executive law.”

He argues that the decision is contrary to constitutional protection, especially part 36 (1) of the right to a just session and part 36 (9) concerning the protection of the trial again after liberation. He also criticized the dependence of the court for national security reasons, noted that part 45 (2) prohibited Deding from the right hearing, even during the war.

The “national security court ‘created by the court is the highest re -writing of the law,” said Ifedi. “The order of the disposal of the appeal court is the final release, but the Supreme Court revives accusations of death in the service of the state impunity.”

Quoting the British case R. The Horseferry Road Magistrates Court and similar decisions from the European Human Rights Court, South Africa, and the UN Human Rights Council, if Id stated that the prosecution arising from invalid rendition did not have jurisdiction and must be canceled.

He further accused that the decision violated Nigeria’s obligations under the International Agreement on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the African Charter about human and people’s rights, describing it as “moral heretics” and “internationally embarrassing.”

Ifedi demanded a direct release of Kanu, a review of the decision, investigation by the International Criminal Court (ICC), and the targeted UN sanctions.

“The Supreme Court has tore Nigeria’s social contract,” he said. “When the High Court of the State Childilation License, suspended unogized rights, and the emptiness of multiple dangers, he committed constitutional nutrients. This decision is not law, it is a tyranny that is disguised as a jurisprudence.”

He also urged the international community to treat Nigeria “as an evil country” until Kanu was released and the constitutional order was restored.
