The minister later explained that he withdrew charges against the soldiers to allow the Nigeria Army to court-martial them and conclude its internal process. Meanwhile, the trial of Wadume and his co-defendants has yet to continue almost four months after the Judicial Staff Union of Nigeria called of its nationwide strike.

The Federal Government arraigned Wadume and his co-defendants on June 8, 2020 on amended 13 counts of terrorism, kidnapping and other related offences.
