The defendants had been arrested in Nigeria in January 2018 and deported back to Cameroon. The court also ordered the 10 to pay a fine of 250bn CFA francs ($422m; £359m) to the government for civil damages and 12bn CFA francs for court costs. Wow Nigeria did these guys dirty. Falana's appeals to the FG failed considering these guys are getting life in prison. There FG ignored court order to repatriate them. Lol the Court sentence is hilariously brutal sit in jail for life and pay us billions somehow. The issues could be resolved by becoming a federal state like Canada. They have French and English speaking regions existing without much issues. 1 Like |

Blue3k: It's terrible. These guys were abducted by the DSS where they holding a meeting.Their Lawyer Femi went to court to challenge their arrest. The case was still in court when the Nigerian government hurriedly deported them to Cameroon, a country run by the brutal dictator called Paul Biya. Falana was shouting that these men would face torture and would never get a fair trial in Cameroon. The FG ignored him. Now they have been sentenced to life imprisonment just for agitating for a separate country from Cameroon What makes it worse is that Femi Falana has since obtained a court judgement that their arrest and deportation was illegal and they should be returned to Nigeria www.bbc.com/pidgin/amp/tori-47429466 1 Like |
