general elections, Leadership newspaper reports.
President Goodluck Jonathan
Breaking in through the ceiling, the thieves
allegedly robbed and ransacked the office,
destroying computer systems and safes. Most
critically, the robbers stole files containing vital
court documents regarding the case.
Olatoye and a colleague had previously sought an
order from a Federal High Court in Abuja to
restrain the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) from allowing President
Jonathan and Vice President Sambo to re-
contest. The plaintiffs argued that by the virtue of
the Nigerian Constitution, the President and the
Vice President were taken to have been elected
for one single, four year term.
“It is really a great surprise to me, when I was
called on Saturday morning that my office had
been burgled by yet to be identified persons. It
was my office alone that was burgled out of all
the offices in the plaza. The thieves came in
through the ceiling and ransacked all the files in
my office.
“Although, they made away with some amount of
money I left in the office, they also took away
some documents, especially the ones I am using
in pursuing my case against the eligibility of
President Goodluck Jonathan.
“As a plaintiff in the matter and a legal
practitioner, there are some documents I need to
hand over to my lawyers which I kept in the
office. All my computer systems in the office were
also destroyed, the office safe was also
destroyed.
“The matter have been reported to the FCDA
police station in Garki, and the police have
promised to come around on Monday morning for
further investigation,” Olatoye stated.
Olatoye and his colleague launched their suit
against Jonathan on the provisions of sections
132(1), 135(2)(a) and (b), 137(1)(b), 142(1) and
(2) of the Constitution and the Supreme Court
decisions.
