In maintaining the public authority’s allure, the Supreme court held that Kanu should confront preliminary at the Federal high court

The supreme courtin the judgment conveyed by Justice Emmanuel Agim, yet ready by Equity Garba Lawal, held that the Court of Allure was inappropriate to decide that Kanu couldn’t be attempted once more in light of the lawlessness executed against him by the Central Government, following the attack of his home.

Also, the Court held that although the Nigerian Government was reckless and unlawfully rendered Kanu from Kenya, such unlawful act has not divested any Court from proceeding with trial.

Justice Lawal said that no Nigerian law was cited in the suit seeking Kanu’s release on the grounds of unlawful abduction from Kenya.

According to the Court, at the moment, the remedy for such an action is for Kanu to file a civil matter against the act instead of removing the powers of the courts to continue with his trial for alleged criminal charges.
