Tinubu's Aide Urges President to Revoke Pardon for Drug Convicts
Bola Tinubu's aide, Josef Onoh, has called for the reversal of the recent pardon granted to drug convicts, including Maryam Sanda, who was convicted of killing her husband in 2020. Onoh argues that granting clemency to drug offenders undermines the values of human life and justice, potentially damaging Nigeria's international reputation.
The decision has also been criticized for demoralizing security operations and risking foreign investments. Onoh urges transparency in the review process to restore equity and uphold Nigeria's global image.
