Convicted Nigerian terrorist Okah awaits appeal results Convicted Nigerian terrorist, Henry Okah will know the outcome off his application for leave to appeal his conviction and sentence in two weeks’ time. He represented himself in court.

Okah is seeking relief to have his conviction set aside also applying for declaratory order regarding his incarceration to declare it unlawful

Okah is seeking relief to have his conviction set aside also applying for declaratory order regarding his incarceration to declare it unlawful. His previous attempt to have his conviction overturned failed in both the Supreme Court of Appeal and the Constitutional Court. Macadam further argued that there is no legal basis for Okah to be tried at the International Crimes Court because there is no provision for his case to be referred to that court.

The incident left 12 people dead and 36 injured. In the other incident, two car bombs went off during which one person was killed and 11 injured.
