The Minister is being sued alongside the Inspector General of Police, IGP, as the 1st and 2nd defendants respectively.
In the suit, filed by Samuel Nwosu on his behalf, the activist asked the court to compel Amaechi and the IGP to pay him N200 million as compensation for the harassment and intimidation he suffered in the hands of the defendants unjustly over the years. Among other reliefs, the applicant is seeking an order of injunction restraining the respondents, their servants, agents, officers and men from further harassing, molesting, intimidating and threatening him in any manner, howsoever, that is likely to breach or threaten the breach of his fundamental rights under Chapter IV of the 1999 Constitution.
“That the 1st respondent had in reaction declared, described, tagged, labelled and classified him as a terrorist and called upon the 2nd Respondent and his men to arrest the Applicant. That he lives continually in fear and apprehension of imminent danger to his life as a result of the Respondents continuing threats and harassments.
