The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Monday confirmed that it has received a petition against Nigeria's first Lady, Patience Jonathan from the All Progressives Congress (APC), against Patience Jonathan.

In an exclusive report, THE CABLE wrote that it had written to the Office of the Prosecutor (OTP) seeking clarification on reports that the court had formally received a petition against the first lady from APC.

In response, the ICC wrote; ''Under Article 15 of the Rome Statute, the Prosecutor of the ICC may receive information on crimes within the jurisdiction on the Court (also called ‘communications’). With regards to your enquiry, the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court can confirm receipt of the communication referred to since the sender of the communication has made this fact public in the media.

The OTP told THECABLE that it would consider the stance of the APC and treat the allegations as appropriate.
