Aguocha said Nnamdi Kanu, Omoyele Sowore, Sunday Igboho and Godwin Emefiele are citizens of the Federal Republic of Nigeria accused by the government of various alleged offences.

He said Sowore and Igboho are free men by reason of the determination of the judiciary in protecting the rights of the citizens while  Emefiele, by the determination of the judiciary, has been granted bail in the sum of N50M.

He said further that while It is their constitutional right to freedom, Nnamdi Kanu has not been accorded the same right wondering whether he was not a Nigerian citizen.
