“Yesterday (Monday), I served on AGF Malami a Legal Notice (as required by law), notifying him of my intention to take legal action against him for his defamatory & libellous statements that #MNK (Mazi Nnamdi Kanu) jumped bail,” Ejimakor announced via his known Twitter handle.
This newspaper reports that Ejimakor and other members of Kanu’s legal team often argue that the IPOB leader never jumped bail, rather he was driven away by forces beyond his control.
According to Kanu’s team, “if anybody should answer any query on why he (Kanu) skipped bail, it should be the Federal Government of Nigeria”.
