Sowore: Nigerian Bar Association Demands Immediate Suspension Of DSS Boss

  The Nigerian Bar Association has demanded the immediate suspension of the Director-General of Department of State Services, Yusuf Bichi, over the style used in rearresting Omoyele Sowore in court premises. Operatives of the DSS had stormed the Federal High Court on Friday to arrest Sowore. The invasion of the courtroom forced Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu to abandon sitting and judicial activities for the day. The NBA in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kunle Edun, said it was “greatly dismayed at the exhibition of primitivity, thuggery, insane passion for lawlessness, contempt and disrespect for the rule of law by the agents of the DSS”. The body of lawyers in the country also said that it finds it disgraceful that this 'court riot' occasioned by the high-handedness and insensitivity of the security operatives interrupted judicial proceedings and made the presiding judge to abandon judicial proceedings because of safety concerns. NBA urged President Muh...

  Aisha, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, has said that she did not take the rumour that her husband was taking a new wife seriously. Speaking on Television Continental, Aisha said that she was really worried when social media was awash with reports on the death of her husband but said she never took the marriage rumour seriously. She said, “I didn’t take it seriously because even my husband didn’t know what was happening, “Both of us didn’t know what was happening; they just decided to bombard social media with it. They are now taking to social media to bring down the government itself. “I think that we should not allow people that are nothing to override the innocent; I don’t know why people that are supposed to be in charge should remain mute while bad people take over the country from us. It is impossible and totally unacceptable.”   Politics News AddThis :  Original Author :  SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK Disable advertisements :  via I...

Nigeria Files Fraud Charges Against P&ID In UK Court

  The Nigerian Government has sued Process and Industrial Development Ltd for fraud in a United Kingdom court. This was revealed to Reuters by a spokesperson for the country’s Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN). Nigeria can only set aside the award, which has now climbed to $10bn if it is able to prove in the foundation of the contract that corruption was at play. “Nigeria’s new filings with the English court is an act of desperation to try to undo the court’s sound conclusion that P&ID’s $10bn award is enforceable,” a spokesperson for the British Virgin Island registered company claimed. In September, Nigeria received permission to appeal the award judgment but was told to pay a bond of $200m if it intended to enforce a stay of execution while the appeal was in motion. The government made the guarantee payment last week and added a British chamber to its legal team. The trial is over a failed 2010 gas processing contract. Details have since emerged accu...

The Peoples Democratic Party has said that the invasion of the Federal High Court, Abuja, by the Department of State Services on Friday, further confirms that Nigeria, under the President Muhammadu Buhari regime, was finally sliding into a frightening dictatorship. The party said that the invasion of the court is a vindication of its earlier stand that the nation was no longer governed by democratic principles of rule of law and dictates of the constitution. PDP, in a statement by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, said, “Today, the world watched with shock as operatives of the Presidency-controlled DSS in a most horrific manner, swooped on the court, held the judiciary to ransom, disrupted proceedings, scared away the judge, chased away lawyers and journalists, attacked and rearrested persons standing trial within the precincts of the court in a manner that can only be obtainable in Idi Amin’s Uganda. “The invasion is in a forceful suspension of our constitutional order a...

SaharaReporters Media Opeyemi, wife of the pro-democracy campaigner and journalist, Omoyele Sowore, has condemned the rearrest of her husband by the Department of State Services inside the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Friday. Sowore was rearrested by the DSS less than 24 hours after he was released following another order by Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu of the same court. Reacting to the latest development, Opeyemi described the rearrest of her husband as "gross misuse of power and outrageous display of lawlessness". She said, “Today was a turning point in Nigeria's history, unlike anything its democracy has ever seen.  “In just 24 hours, the world witnessed Nigeria's democracy disintegrate further with a gross misuse of power and outrageous display of lawlessness. “This government has shown us repeatedly their irrational conduct and extreme inability to follow the rule of law.” Speaking further, she said that Nigerians must all come out to hold the government ...

Sowore: DSS Desecrated Temple Of Justice, Says Rights Group

Non-governmental organisation, Centre Against Injustice and Domestic Violence, has said that the Department of State Services desecrated the temple of justice by invading the Federal High Court, Abuja, to rearrest pro-democracy campaigner and journalist, Omoyele Sowore, on Friday. Speaking through its Executive Director, Gbenga Soloki, the CAIDV called on the Chief Justice of the Federation to summon the Director-General of DSS for questioning over the unholy display of power by his men.   Soloki said, “The Chief Judge of the Federation should summon the DG of DSS and ensure he produces those that invaded a court of law so that the appropriate punitive measures could be meted out to them to serve as deterrent.” The group also noted that failure to do so will invariably lead to more acts of impunity in future.  Soloki also appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to call the leadership of the DSS to order and stop them from "ridiculing our country by th...

Sowore's Rearrest, Mockery Of Justice –SERAP

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project has condemned the rearrest of pro-democracy campaigner and journalist, Omoyele Sowore, by operatives of Department of Security Service on Friday.

The statement said, “The violent rearrest of Sowore right inside the courtroom, is a textbook case of a mockery of justice and abuse of judicial process.  “It drives home the failure of the Nigerian Government to fulfill its constitutional and international human rights obligations to respect citizens’ human rights and observe the rule of law.” SERAP Deputy Director, Kolawole Oluwadare, added that the invasion of the courtroom and the ill-treatment of Sowo...
