Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche, the co-mastermind of the Nyanya blasts is now in Nigeria to face the full wrath of the law. This followed the conclusion of tortuous legal and diplomatic processes between Nigeria and the Republic of Sudan. The co-mastermind of the Nyanya Motor Park bombing in which scores of citizens died and hundreds wounded had since the blasts fled the country and taken refuge in Sudan. He was handed over to the Interpol Unit of the Nigeria Police Force by the Sudanese Authorities after he was flown into the country in a special flight from Khartoum which touched down at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport at 3.00pm Tuesday.
It would be recalled that the terror fugitive who had long since been arrested in Sudan following an international red notice issued for his arrest by the Nigeria National Bureau of Interpol had not been repatriated to the country before now due to some necessary processes involved in transferring suspects from one country to another.
Meanwhile, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP MD Abubakar, while commending the personnel of the Nigeria Police Interpol Unit for a job well done, noted that the successful repatriation of the terror fugitive to Nigeria shows that the global coalition against terrorism championed by Nigeria is beginning to yield the desired result.
Spotting a blue check long-sleeved shirt over a brown pair of trousers, the tall, lanky Ogwuche betrayed no emotion whatsoever. He looked calm even when being chaperoned by a battery of security personnel.
Mike Omeri, the Director General of the National Orientation Agency, NOA, and spokesman for the special unit for information management of terror activities in Nigeria said Ogwuche would face the wrath of the law after the necessary investigations.
