Indonesian court rejects fresh challenge against execution of Nigerian

According to Premium times....an Indonesian court has dismissed a legal challenge by a 42-years old Nigerian, Raheem Agbaje-Salami, who is on a death row for drug peddling
President Joko Widodo has rejected clemency representations from Nigerian authorities.
Judge Hendro Puspito of the Administrative Court in East Jakarta said on Monday that the court had no jurisdiction over presidential decisions.
Agbaje-Salami, alias Jamiu Owolabi Abashin from the southern Spanish city of Cordova, was arrested in 1998 for smuggling 5.3 kg of heroin into Surabaya, the capital of East Java province.
He was taken on Wednesday from a prison in East Java to a prison island off the southern coast of Java where he was due to be executed later this month with up to nine other death-row inmates.
Salami, along with nine other drug traffickers from Australia, French, Brazil, Ghana and Indonesia, are expected to be executed soon in Nusakambangan island of Central Java.
President Widodo remained tough on the death penalty amid intensive efforts for clemency from Australia, French and Brazil.
Two other Nigerian drug traffickers are also scheduled to be executed this month after requests for presidential clemency were rejected.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian government on Monday, again summoned the Indonesian Ambassador, Harry Purwato, over the country’s planned execution of more Nigerians by firing squad for drug-related offences and has appealed that the execution be changed to life in prison.
The Nigerian government should be fast in their discussions.....these men will be killed if a swift measure I not taken. And please brothers and sisters...there are better ways of making money than through drug trafficking.
