There was mild drama at the High Court of Cross River State on Thursday as Mr. Denis Tarhemba, the lawyer to the Nigeria Police in a suit seeking to enforce the fundamental human rights of journalist and activist, Agba Jalingo, snatched documents from the hands of a former Attorney-General of the state, Attah Ochinke. Tarhemba, who served his written response to the process filed by Jalingo’s lawyers during the court session, had approached Ochinke for the documents when the court rose for a break to reconvene by noon. “When the former AG told him that, ‘look, you just served me this response in open court and I can’t give it back to you,’ he snatched the document from his hand,” Jeremiah Archibong, a journalist, who witnessed the scene, said. According to Archibong, Tarhemba later approached Jalingo’s lawyers to plead with journalists not to report the drama.

Morning Fresh A Nigerian palm oil expert, John Omale, has said that he disagrees with concerns been spread by the European Union and other global warming advocates that palm oil cultivation was contributing to global deforestation. While he contends that trees get cut down and bush cleared in order to build plantations, Omale said mature plantations form natural forests that give safe habitat to wild life. The EU economic bloc has said that it would phase out the use of palm oil as a feedstock for its biodiesel, while global warming campaigners have lobbied for palm oil usage in processed food and other various products to be halted. On Wednesday, Malaysia’s biggest supermarket chain Mydin, began taking out products labelled ‘palm oil free.’ Omale said, “When you grow oil palm after a long period of time, you will see that the interaction in the eco system starts to come back again. “When you clear out land for a plantation, it becomes a forest again after a very long perio

The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to caution the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, from undermine the constitutional powers of the Police Service Commission. HURIWA warned that if the constitutional powers of the commission was not restored and respected, it could lead to misconducts in the commission. HURIWA said, “We are worried that the show of shame by the police authority in refusing to let the PSC discharge its statutory duties could have lasting damage. “This would mean that professional misconducts and indiscipline would rise in the nation’s policing institution. “The PSC Chairman, Musiliu Smith, a retired Inspector-General of Police, was said to have been shocked by the decision of the IGP to release the list when they were yet to resolve the controversy surrounding the suspension of the exercise. This is not good for policing in Nigeria.” Police News AddThis :  Original Author :  SaharaReporters, N

  Forty-six volunteer officers of the Nigeria Securities and Civil Defence Corps have been arrested and detained by the police in Adamawa for staging a peaceful demonstration demanding their entitlements. The volunteer corps, numbering 631, staged the protest in Yola, the state capital, on Thursday. Livingston Mohammed, who led the protest, said over 630 people were captured as volunteers in 2008 but up to date none of them were not regularised. He said, “We have been screened by the committees but as at this moment, we are still awaiting regularisation.” However, the Adamawa State Commandant of the corps, Nurudeen Abdullahi, said there are no volunteers of the corps in the state.

Effects of Hurricane Isabel in Delaware . The effects of Hurricane Isabel in Delaware were compounded by flooding from the remnants of Tropical Storm Henri days before and resulted in a presidential disaster declaration for the U.S. state. Hurricane Isabel formed on September 6, 2003, in the tropical Atlantic Ocean and reached recorded peak winds of 165 mph (265 km/h) on September 11. It made landfall on the Outer Banks of North Carolina with recorded winds of 105 mph (165 km/h) on September 18. It quickly weakened over land and became extratropical over Pennsylvania the next day. Roughly six million people were left without electric service in the eastern United States from its strong winds. Sixteen deaths in seven states were directly related to the hurricane, with 35 deaths in six states and one Canadian province indirectly related, though none in Delaware. Overall damage totalled about $5.5 billion, of which $40 million was associated with Delaware.
