Rotimi Amaechi, the presidential running mate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has suggested that Nigerian President Bola Tinubu could face arrest and prosecution by the International Criminal Court (ICC). In a video addressing ADC stakeholders, Amaechi warned Tinubu about his administration's crackdown on the opposition, drawing parallels to former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who is currently detained for the deaths of thousands of people.
Amaechi revealed that international law stipulates a certain number of people must die under Tinubu's administration before he can be prosecuted by the ICC. He added, "His Attorney-General was my lawyer, and he knows the number of people the government must kill before Tinubu will be prosecuted. Tinubu will not leave Nigeria. Even if he wants to leave Nigeria, they will carry him from here."
Amaechi also mentioned that not only Tinubu, but also the general who issued the instructions, the Chief of Army Staff, and the Inspector-General of Police who gave the orders would be arrested under international law.
