Four suspects accused of involvement in the kidnapping of University of Abuja (UniAbuja) lecturers and their children in 2021 were brought before a Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday. They faced a two-count terrorism charge brought by the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) before Justice Donatus Okorowo. The defendants, Adamu Abubakar, Nura Muhammed Ahmadu, Ismailia Abubakar, and Abdulrahman Ado (also known as Yellow), pleaded not guilty to the charges. Before their arraignment, the defendants indicated their desire to speak in open court, which Justice Okorowo eventually allowed despite their lawyer’s presence.
