Succour has come the way of a Rivers State-based man, Clinton Kanu as the Supreme Court is said to have set him free after he had been jaied for 27 years for an offence he did not commit.
The 57-year-old is now calling for the reform of the judicial system in the country, according to reports..
The Rivers State Television notes that Kanu was arrested at the age of 30, convicted of murder in 1992 and remanded in Port Harcourt Maximum Prisons.
His appeal against the lower court judgement dragged on slowly, but eventually he got to the Supreme Court of Nigeria. There, he got acquitted of the murder charge on the 5th April, 2019.
