The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has called on Senator-elect Buruji Kashamu to stop dragging former president, Olusegun Obasanjo and former deputy national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olabode George into his personal problems.
According to the agency in a statement signed by its spokesperson Ofoyeju Mitchel, and made available to newsmen yesterday, “The fact is that a formal request for his extradition had been received from the Embassy of the United States of America.”
“According to official report, Kashamu has been on the wanted list of both the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).”
The agency further noted that “Kashamu was indicted in the Northern District of Illinois, United States on charges brought against him by ICE. According to the United States court documents, Kashamu in his days as the leader of a prolific heroin trafficking ring based in Chicago, Illinois was known as ‘God,’ ‘Daddy,’ and ‘Kasmal’. He is wanted to stand trial on charges of conspiracy and importation of controlled substances, namely heroin, into the United States dating back to 1994.”
Extradition In Line With The Law- Falana
Lagos lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) yesterday said that the on going effort by federal government through the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency to extradite Ogun State Senator-elect, Buruji Kashamu to the United States is in line with the law.
Falana, who advised Kashamu to surrender himself for trial in the United States instead of embarking on a prolonged legal battle in Nigeria, noted that there is indeed an extradition treaty between Nigeria and the United States which was signed on June 24, 1935 and entered into force on June 24, 1935.
Though the treaty was signed with the United States by the British colonial regime which then exercised dominion over the territory of Nigeria, when Nigeria obtained political independence from the Britannic Majesty in 1960 the treaty was like several others, adopted by the federal government.
