The judgement which was obtained through the verified Facebook page of the IPOB’s lead counsel, Barr Ifeanyi Ejiofor.

The judgement reads thus:

“… the consequence of this section, I hold, is that the Appellant is prohibited from being detained, tried, or otherwise dealt with in Nigeria for or in respect of any offence allegedly committed by him before his extraordinary rendition to Nigeria. The Lower Court has no jurisdiction, I further hold, to try the Appellant on counts 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5, 8 and 15 which were retained by it, being charges allegedly committed by the Appellant prior to his extraordinary rendition.

_In addition, by the forcible abduction and extraordinary rendition of the Appellant from Kenya to this country on the 27th day of June 2021, in violation of international and state laws, the Lower Court and indeed any Court in this country is divested of jurisdiction to entertain charges against the Appellant and I so hold.”
