Counter Terrorism: Nigeria, Italy Seeks Strong Witness Protection - Latest News

The Coordinator, National Counterterrorism Centre , Rear Admiral Yem Musa who represented Nigeria at the event, said the administration of criminal justice terrorism-related cases could neither be efficient nor effective if the rights of those concerned are not protected.

According to the coordinator, Nigeria signed the Witness Protection and Management Act on 23rd May 2022 into law to specifically address that challenge. “The GCTF Criminal Justice and Rule of Law Working Group, co-chaired by Italy and Nigeria, is dedicated to supporting the development of effective criminal justice systems within a rule of law framework and fully respecting human rights. It aims to ensure that persons who plan, perpetrate or support terrorist acts are brought to justice,” the forum said.
