Liberia wants Taylor extradited

line

Abuja - Liberia's President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has formally asked Nigeria to hand back her exiled predecessor Charles Taylor, says a spokesperson for Nigeria's President Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday.

Taylor, who had been accused of committing war crimes by international prosecutors, was given political asylum by Obasanjo in August 2003 and had been living in a luxury villa in the Nigerian city of Calabar.

Obasanjo's spokesperson Remi Oyo said that Johnson-Sirleaf had asked the Nigerian leader to return Taylor and that he would give his response to the request after consulting with fellow African leaders.
