Kanu’s American lawyer drags federal government to international criminal court

The American lawyer of Nnamdi Kanu, Bruce Fein has threatened to drag Nigeria to the International Criminal Court [ICC] over alleged gross violation of his client’s rights.

Fein was in court on Wednesday to monitor the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of BIAFRA but was denied access into the courtroom.

Speaking with journalists after the proceedings, Fein said, that was the fifth time he was not allowed to enter the courtroom despite the court’s previous order that Nnamdi could have access to any three persons he wants to.

He said he would take the federal government to international tribunals, saying it is clear that the Nigerian tribunals are compromised.

The lawyer said he will petition the working group on arbitrary detention in Geneva, the International Court of justice in the Hague.

Adding that he will be going to the United States congress and urging that sanctions be considered against Nigeria for gross violations of fundamental human rights.
