According to Daily Post, a civil group called Access to Justice and eight other civil society organizations have dragged the president of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan before a federal high court in Abuja.
The groups seek 'an order of mandamus' for investigation into the alleged war crimes committed by the military and the civilian JTF.
Daily Post says:
In a motion ex parte, brought pursuant to Order 34 Rule 3(1) and (2) of the Federal High Court (Civil Procedure) Rules 2009, the groups are seeking an order for leave to apply for an order of Mandamus compelling the respondents to exercise the legal duty to conduct a thorough, prompt, independent and impartial investigation into allegations or reports of extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions made by an international human rights body named Amnesty International whose report issued with an accompanying video footage dated August 5th 2014, depicted horrendous acts of extrajudicial killings and torture of suspected members of the Boko Haram sect carried out by members of the Nigerian military and the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF).
