The Federal Government is worried that the International Criminal Court is unrelenting in pursuing eight cases against Nigeria, says the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubabakar Malami (SAN). He said this on Thursday while playing host to the newly elected President of the ICC, Prof. Chile Osuji, at his office in Abuja.

Six of the cases were said to be against Boko Haram and two against the military.

Malami said, “Presently, the ICC has escalated the eight potential cases against Nigeria – six against the Boko Har...

We all carried out the tasks he assigned to us, since we had no doubt in his genius and rightness of the path he had chosen.
