Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has approved a list of prosecutors to handle the cases of more than one thousand Boko Haram suspects.
The proposed prosecutions will start early October, after the opening of the new legal year.
Currently, four judges have been deputised by the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court to sit on the cases at Kainji, and dispose of them expeditiously.
It is expected that the special prosecutions will start with the detainees in Kainji followed closely by the disposal of the cases of the detainees in Giwa Barracks, Maiduguri until the cases are exhausted.
