Gaddafi's son Saadi granted asylum in Niger

Nigerian President Mahamadou Issoufi has announced his decision to grant asylum to slain Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi's son Saadi. Issoufi said that Saadi, a bisexual playboy, was granted asylum on 'humanitarian grounds,' adding that it was unlikely he would ever be extradited back to his home country. Issoufi also said that Saadi, three generals and three other Libyans who accompanied him across the border last week were being treated as refugees.
