The counsel revealed that the arrest was in collaboration with the Nigerian government.

He appealed to the German Government and other the international community ‘to rise up and curb the impunity of the Nigerian Government by refusing any application for extradition of our Client who already has application before the International Criminal Court duly acknowledged’.
