The requirements for the extradition of pro-Biafran agitator, Simon Ekpa, to Nigeria have been forwarded to the Government of Finland, the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa (CDS), has said.

“Well, I’m sure he is cooling off somewhere,” the defence chief said on Channels Television‘s 2024 Year-In-Review programme on December 31, 2024.

“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,” he added.

The defence chief also said 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.

In November 2024, Finland authorities arrested Ekpa alongside four others on suspicion of terror-related activities, including incitement to violence and terrorism financing.

Finland district court in Lahti had ordered the remand of Ekpa on probable cause for public incitement to commit a crime with terrorist intent in Nigeria.

The separatist leader was accused of using social media platforms to spread separatist propaganda linked to IPOB, a group advocating for the secession of southeastern Nigeria.
