HOW FORMER COAS BURATAI INSISTED ON THE ARREST AND EXTRADICTION OF SUNDAY IGBOHO.[PHOTO]..

A top security source in the Benin Republic confided in The PUNCH that the former Chief of Army Staff wrote the government of the small West African country and insisted on the arrest and extradition of Igboho.


It was gathered that Buratai was at the forefront of the ongoing move to extradite the activist.


A few hours after Igboho’s arrest on Monday, his  Beninese lawyers and other experts met with some  Benin Republic government officials and called for the halting of his extradition.


Buratai, Nigeria’s Chief of Army Staff between July 2015 and January 2021, was deployed as Nigeria’s envoy in the Benin Republic in June 2021.


Before then, the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), had presented Buratai’s nomination to the Senate and the upper chamber of the National Assembly had confirmed the ex-COAS’ nomination despite public outcry of some crimes against humanity allegedly committed by the Nigerian Army under Buratai’s leadership.


A top security source in Benin Republic, who spoke to one of our correspondents said that Buratai through the Nigerian Embassy in the small West African country sent a secret letter to the Benin government to be on the lookout for Igboho.


The was gathered that the letter was instrumental to the arrest of Igboho and his wife, Ropo, at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, the largest city in the  French-speaking country.
