A Kaduna High Court has restrained the Nigeria Correctional Service (NCS) from burying a late inmate, Wisdom Felix.
The restraining order was issued by Bilkisu Mohammed following an ex-parte motion filed by a human rights organisation, Incorporated Trustees of Global Rights, on behalf of Mr Felix’ family.
The organisation, popularly known as House of Justice, had asked the court to restrain from executing a warrant to bury the deceased inmate.
The 25-year-old was one of at least five inmates killed by prison warders during COVID-19 lockdown in 2020. The NCS said the inmates attempted jail break but witnesses countered this narrative.
2023: Presidency, Malami Plot To Deport Atiku To Cameroon Over Presidential Ambition
Political weights in the Presidency aided by the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, are intensifying plans to drown Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s 2023 presidential ambition with a court order that would label him a citizen of Cameroon and ineligible for the contest.
SaharaReporters gathered from top sources that
the eventual plan of the Aso Rock conspirators and the AGF is to have Atiku deported to Cameroon, away from the country during the 2023 elections.
Although the AGF has denied instituting any citizenship case against former Vice president Atiku, sources said Malami and his cohorts are acting through proxies and non-governmental organisations which are positioned to actualise the drowning of Atiku’s presidential ambition.

The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN), yesterday distanced himself from a suit at the Federal High Court, sitting in Abuja, querying the citizenship of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Malami, in a statement by his media aide, Dr. Umar Gwandu, denied instituting any legal action on the citizenship of Atiku.
Malami was linked to a suit seeking to disqualify the former vice president from contesting the presidency on the ground that he is not a Nigerian.
However, the minister denied the allegation, saying he “has never filed any case before any court in the country challenging the citizenship of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.”
