Legal Battle on the Alleged Deportation of Ambazonian Leaders Begins on March 2, 2018.
Nigerian Human rights advocate and legal icon, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), has filed a suit at the Federal High Court, Abuja, to challenge the kidnap and detention of four naturalized citizens of Nigeria, initially thought to have been deported along with the President of Ambazonia and other 47 asylum seekers; Sahara Reporters, a popular Nigerian online news portal has reported.
The legal luminary is also said to have filed a suit to challenge the alleged deportation of the President of the interim government of Ambazonian and his collaborators. Hearing in both cases, gathered, has been fixed for March 2 2018.
Sources told SaharaReporters on Tuesday night that the quartet of Messrs. John Ojong Okongho, Nsoh Nalowa Bih, ThankGod Genesis and Nasiru Bah were not deported to La Republique du Cameroun with 47 others alleged to have been deported by the Nigerian authorities. They were rather transferred from military custody to Police custody at a facility in Asokoro, Abuja.
In January, Mr. Falana, as a legal representative of the allegedly deported Ambazonians and the naturalized Nigerians, wrote to President Muhammadu Buhari demanding explanations for the said deportation. He also demanded that the Federal Government should ensure the safety of the naturalized Nigerians.
The Federal Government had allegedly deported the Southern Cameroonians after being illegally held incommunicado for weeks at an undisclosed detention facility by security operatives.
They were kidnapped at Nera Hotel in Abuja where they had gathered for a meeting on 5 January. Other Ambazonian refugees had earlier been picked up and detained by Nigerian security operatives in Taraba State before they were later joined with the kidnapped leaders in Abuja and purportedly deported to Yaoundé, where they have been tagged as terrorists, and have not been seen by any body since their alleged deportation.
Mr. Falana had argued that the act by the Federal Government of Nigeria was not only wrong, but illegal both before Nigerian and international laws which Nigeria swore to protect. Worst, was their decision to have included naturalized Nigerians and registered asylum seekers among those purportedly handed to the colonial regime in Yaoundé.
What is the implications of this court case on the Ambazonian revolution? Can Nigeria be able to retrieve the allegedly deported leaders from LRC through a court injunction? Is lawyer Falana going to invoke the judgement by the same Abuja Federal High Court compelling the Nigeria government to take up the case of Southern Cameroons independence recognition before the international community?
Ambazonians shall begin getting answers to all these questions from march, 2 2018. In the main time, let Ambazonians focused on the campaign to FREE ALL KIDNAPPED and on making the homeland ungovernable for the occupier. Getting freedom from the blood sucking colonial régime should be the preoccupation of every genuine Ambazonian.

You this so call Cashmire, you are a “Shithole” LRC agent but wait for your turn the same blood sucking monster Paul Biya, will suck the blood out of you soon. As Biya has been defeated in Ambazonia, he will now need your blood to suck to satisfy lucifer his master. You are a dead meat already to Biya. Bastard.
@Martha,
My dear if sucking Cashmire blood will help biya chase you guys to the deep forest of Nigeria where you belong to, I think he will be ok. So butt off sister.
Please refrain from giving relevance to these agents of the Beti thuggish clan.
Frustration is slowly taking a toll on them now. At first they used to ask Ambalanders the very provocative questions daily of; “What are you people going to do about it?”. Now we are doing something that is beyond their wildest imagination and still they want to come here and continue their ignoramus trend of thinking.
So true.
Everywhere they go foolishness follows, that’s why no one even read their comments here at all.
Cashmere,all those Franch colonial slaves of lrc were born with no back bone of self worth,they are all flock of sheep born in lrc Africa yet sold their liberty to white french ass,many blacks fought, died to abolish slavery yet most lrc citizens are biyas worthless slaves living in fear,slums with no ability to gain their freedom, SCs are proud,brave patriotic people with a sound culture,history,they have gained their independence already,freedom from french colonial lrc slave puppet biya by the will of force,
To all our convention is going well beside all Biafra descend’s treats. These fools though they can intimidate our Chairman! Bunch of loosers!
Dear Ambazonians no worries we are winning. The regime with all its puppets including the fake opposition is very desperate. We exposed already the hypocrites. Don’t forget you cannot rule without consensus of the people. Let us recap on 22nd of September 2017 not a few people went out to street to hail Ambazonia. No it was a overwhelmingly huge crowd. The majority of Southern Cameroonians want to leave that union. That needs to be clear for everybody. My people if we want that we can achieve that. What is the regime now trying? They try to manipulate our opinion. The dictate their newspapers what to write. The convince fake opposition parties to go on with their preparation for an election we see as illegal. The pretend to the world everything is normal. Infact the regime and all those political elites don’t respect us. But that time has come to an end. What we need to do is to stay focused. Fund the self defense. Biya’s army has lost dozens of its terrorists in Ekok on Monday. And remember we have just started. It is just delaying time.
@Geaorge,
It depend on how you defined winning. Your terrorist child Soldiers kill one LRC Soldier and these soldiers turn around and kill 20 or 30 of yours and you still call that a win? This is a proof that you don’t value your biafra descend’s life. You all leave in a virtual world.
Jojo what profit will you get when all English speaking Cameroonians are killed. Your language is as dirty as your Yaounde streets.
