Nigerian government has submitted the requirements to Government of Finland for the extradition of Simon Ekpa, a pro-Biafran agitator.

This was disclosed on Tuesday by Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, confirmed on Channels TV.

Musa also said that the sit-at-home propagated by Ekpa and his allies in the South-East geopolitical zone of Nigeria is wearing off because of the clearance operations by the military.

He said: “Legal action is going to be taken accordingly. I don’t want to say much about that but I’m happy he has been arrested.

“The Federal Government has actually forwarded most of the requirements to the Finnish Government. So, I’m sure the right thing will be done.”

Recall that in November 2024, Finnish government arrested Ekpa along with four others, on suspicion of involvement in terror-related activities, including incitement to violence and financing terrorism.

The Lahti District Court in Finland ordered Ekpa’s remand based on probable cause for public incitement to commit a crime with terrorist intent in Nigeria.
