The Abuja Division of the Federal High Court on Tuesday issued a warrant of arrest against a British citizen, Andrew Wynne, and other Nigerians over allegations bordering on treason and terrorism.
It alleged that the defendants were also responsible for the attack on Government House Kano, Kaduna Investment and Promotions Agency’s office, NURTW office and several other buildings in August 2024.
Mr Garba said others who are now at large are being tracked, hence the need for the application.
He said if the application is granted, it would enable all police officers in the country and other security agencies to use their mechanisms to secure the lawful arrest of the fleeing defendants.
The lawyer urged the court to grant the application in the interest of justice.
Justice Nwite granted the motion and described it as “meritorious.”
The judge had, on Monday, ordered the remand of 10 #EndBadGovernance protesters in Kuje and Suleija Correctional Centres after they were arraigned on six-count charges bordering on treason, among others.
