Aloy Ejimakor, Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has advised the President Muhammadu
Buhari-led Federal Government on a step to take towards his client.
Ejimakor said the Buhari-led Federal Government should
dialogue and abandon the trial of Kanu.
The Special Counsel informed the Federal Government that
dialogue is amicable.
Ejimakor made the remark while quoting a section of the
Federal High Court Act.
In a tweet, he wrote: “Sec. 17 of Federal High Court Act
(Reconciliation in civil & CRIMINAL cases) says: “In any proceedings in the
Court, the Court may promote RECONCILIATION among the parties thereto &
encourage & facilitate the AMICABLE settlement thereof”. Dialogue is
amicable. Trial is not. #MNK.”
The Nigerian Government has a seven-count charge against the
IPOB leader before Justice Binta Nyako of an Abuja Federal High Court.
The charges, which were initially 15 counts, had eight
struck out by Justice Nyako.
The judge struck out counts six, seven, nine, 10, 11, 12,
13, and 14.
