Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) shared what he describes as injustice being prolonged under the current administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.

 

 

Falana made this assertion while alluding to the decision of the Federal Government to extradite Sunday Adeyemo, popularly called Sunday Igboho, from the Benin Republic to Nigeria.

 

 

He juxtaposed it with the case of the embattled police officer, Abba Kyari, with the authorities adhering to the rule of the law in his wrangle with a convicted fraudster, Hushpuppi.

 

 

Falana, who spoke during an interview with BBC Yoruba, noted that the present administration’s injustice is obvious which was why he was against the quick extradition of Kanu to Nigeria.

 

 

“The Benin government made its Nigerian counterpart understand that its country is not lawless. They insisted on following the due legal processes and said without going to court, they cannot hand over Igboho to you.

 

 

“This is how it should be under the law; the judge will scrutinise Nigeria’s extradition request from Cotonou to Abuja
