Abdul Oroh has once again urged President Bola Tinubu’s administration to use diplomatic and political channels to secure the release of Nigerian professors and other professionals detained in Cameroon. This non-appearance has significantly stalled efforts to secure the release of the professors and other detained individuals. The detained professors and professionals were arrested at Nera Hotel in Abuja on January 5, 2018, by Nigerian security agents. He appealed to President Tinubu, noting his background as a human rights advocate and former refugee, to intervene with Cameroonian authorities to secure their release. The lawyers continue to push for the implementation of international and domestic legal rulings to ensure the detainees’ release and uphold justice.
