The Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has said that the Federal Government is considering different options and solutions in resolving the pending cases of Biafran agitator, Nnamdi Kanu and Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Igboho.
Speaking at a press briefing in Abuja, on Wednesday 10, Malami stated that criminal activities must be punished, while noting that the FG has been implementing the option of amnesty towards battling some security challenges in the country.

“The FG does not mind considering political solutions in the cases of Kanu and Igboho as canvassed by some stakeholders in the country but such consideration is not yet on the table.
“As far as the security situation is concerned and as far as governance and this administration is concerned, you cannot rule out all possibilities but then there has to be an approach for government to consider,” the AGF said.
“So it is not a conclusion that one can outrightly make without juxtaposing associated facts relating to the reconciliation,” he added, noting that there has to be an approach and then a counter consideration.
“So no approach in that respect is on the table for consideration yet. So we’ll cross the bridge when eventually we get to that; when perhaps a type of request is made, we’ll consider,” Malami stated.
