The federal government has been asked to seek a review of the International Court of Justice ruling which ceded Bakassi peninsular to the republic of Cameroun.

The joint committee of the House of Representatives on Foreign affairs, Justice and Special duties brought together experts at an interactive session in a bid to help guide the position to be taken by the lawmakers on the matter.

There has been a growing call for government to revisit the International Court of Justice judgment ceding Bakassi peninsular to Cameroon.

The indigenes of the peninsular who were also at the event, told the forum that they are not impressed with the way government handled the land dispute.

They also gave accounts of their experiences in the hands of Cameroonian security forces.
