Human rights lawyer Dele Farotimi has raised concerns over inconsistencies in Nigeria’s approach to national security. In an interview with Channels TV, he highlighted the contrast between the detention of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu in DSS custody and notorious terrorist Bello Turji, who allegedly continues to move freely, issuing ultimatums and threats.
Farotimi questioned the government’s commitment to combating terrorism, noting that financiers of armed groups, even those convicted abroad, face no consequences in Nigeria.
He said, “Nnamdi Kanu is held in a DSS cell today, but Bello Turji is busy strolling around issuing ultimatums. Sometimes they move in convoys as large as 500, and the Nigerian government negotiates peace.”
The lawyer lamented Nigeria’s declining capacity to enforce law and order, contrasting it with the country’s past role in regional peacekeeping.
