Fagbemi Hails Conviction Of Simon Ekpa By Finnish Court
The Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, has commended the Finnish Court over the conviction of the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra, Simon Ekpa.
Fagbemi said that Ekpa’s conviction for the charges of terrorism and other related offences filed against him by the Finnish government is a confirmation that Ekpa had influenced and committed heinous crimes against the Nigerian people, especially in the South East.
We commend the Finnish authorities for supporting Nigerian in the fight against insecurity and see this as a signal of future collaboration.
Appropriate further actions would be taken upon receipt and understudying a copy of the judgement of the court.
