SV: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Three Things To Do To Remove IPOB From The Terror Tag

We should not be besmirched with infantile prank here. Terrorist Prevention Act was signed into Law by President Goodluck Ebelechukwu Azikiwe Jonathan in 2013 after the PDP controlled National Assembly had passed it into law. The terrorist Prevention Act of 2013 empowers a High Court Judge to proclaim an organisation a Terrorist Group provided a request to that effect is made by the Inspector General of the Police  or Attorney General of the Federation. PRESIDENT BUHARI HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PROCLAMATION OF IPOB AS A TERRORIST GROUP AND HE IS NOT EXPECTED TO SIGN ANYTHING PARTAINING TO THE DECLARATION OF IPOB AS A TERRORIST GROUP.

(1) pressure Buhari through Eastern governors and Ohaneze to withdraw signature on proclamation papers thereby preventing release of gazette.

(2)pressure international allies of Nigeria to prevail on Buhari to withdraw signature on proclamation papers.

(3)brief a meticulous lawyer to study the proclamation to check for any deviations from the law and if there be such deviations, approach the court to nullify the proclamation. This can only be done after release of the gazette.

PS: if the proclamation gazette is eventually released and no successful legal challenge is activated, most countries will treat IPOB as a terror group.

CAO.
