Bruce Fein, the US attorney for pro-Biafra agitator Nnamdi Kanu, has filed a criminal lawsuit with the International Court of Justice against Abubakar Malami, Justice Binta Nyako of an Abuja Federal High Court, and President Muhammadu Buhari.
He charges Malami and Nyako of plotting crimes against humanity with Buhari and Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta.
In a post on Twitter, he wrote: “Today, I filed a criminal complaint with the International Court of Justice against Nigerian Attorney General Malami and Federal High Court Justice Nyako charging them with conspiring with Nigerian President Buhari and Kenyan President Kenyatta to commit crimes against humanity.”
Kanu will be appearing before the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Friday for charges bordering on terrorism.
After spending two years in detention, Kanu disappeared in April 2017 while on bail. However, he mysteriously resurfaced in Israel more than a year later.
Last June, Kanu was arrested in Kenya and repatriated to Nigeria.
