Alhaji Mohammed Idris, Honourable

Minister for Information and National Orientation, who said this inna statement Friday, June 21, 2024, noted the Nigerian Government emphasised that the allegations are false and should be ignored.

The Minister stated: “Gambaryan is being held in lawful detention and has access to quality medical care whenever required.

“He also has full access to consular services from his home government.”

Idris also stressed “the Federal Government would not do anything to jeopardise his fundamental rights to lawful trial, and to quality care, including healthcare, even as he undergoes trial by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“It is worth reiterating that his detention is a court-ordered one, and only the court can alter the terms or direct his release.”

Idris stated: “This adherence to legal and diplomatic standards underscores Nigeria’s dedication to upholding justice and maintaining the integrity of its judicial processes.

“The Executive is being treated with the utmost fairness, and his legal and human rights are being protected throughout the judicial proceedings.”
