A man of over 80 years and his biography is centred around a drug peddler? Bros, you are the kid. Has the judge read the book? Did the accuser have a copy of the book? This is basing a judgment on hearsay and it can't stand. The judge can stop further sale of the book, not publishing a book whose content he does not know.

Stop yarning trash about things you do not know anything about . I made my assertion based on firsthand knowledge about the contents of the book . The book ( unapproved ) was made available to all that matters even the judge sighted it too and this is the reason for his pronounced judgment .

Big Brother,
1. The write up never said the book centered on Kasamu, it alleged that it centered on OBJ's open letter to GEJ in which he also mentioned that that Kashamu was a wanted fugitive (everybody knows this by now, if not by reports in newspapers then by his awesome wealth with which he donated a building (office abi na party hq??) to PDP). If na lie, make e fly go US come back.
2. A sensible court would have heard OBJ's side and asked for evidence that the book actually contained falsehood about him.
3. A just court under a learned and unbiased Judge would have restricted OBJ from repeating his assertions about Kasamu from the open letter in the book until the other case is resolved. That way, OBJ can still publish his book without any references to the drug lord. That would have been justice to all concerned.
4. A wise judge would have given notice to the publisher, editor.... to refrain from libelous accusations against Kasamu and left them to take the law into their hands, if they dare.
5. A big bros like yourself should know better than to jump to conclusions based on a one sided argument about about the contents of a book that you haven't seen, isn't printed and haven't heard from the writer.

I don't think i'll ever read the book but i HATE it when justice is perverted no matter how inconsequential it might seem and passed off as justice for all.

Signed,
Donkool

Obviously , majority of the members in this forum are little kids , citing most of the comments above me in this thread under discussion . For crying out loud , the judgment passed by the judge is perfectly in order . Here we are talking about a book it''s contents is centered on maligning someone else character without substantial/legal proof to the accusations against the accused . Perhaps most of you do not know how dangerous blackmail/character assassination could be . Should OBJ be allowed to published the said book that centered on Kashamu , he would have succeed in lending credence to the accusation against Kashamu and that would automatically destroys Kashamu reputation for life . Most of you do not know how powerful words written in ink are .
Thumbs up!!!

Well any part '' content is centered on maligning someone else character" then such part should be remove from the book before publication and that settled the case

Buruji Kashamu is not just the person here, I suspect our oga at the top is trying to prevent Obasanjo from exposing him in his new book. We are being carried back to the 1960's when the Tafawa-Balewa government banned books from communist countries.

Pls educate these kids or better still jambites.

Its obvious that majority of those against the order from the judge knows nothing about the position of the law but they ignorantly thought it was the making of the judge.

The plaintiff has a matter in court against obj in respect to some things obj has said in the past about him which are also part of the things in objs book so it is wrong to publish such when the matter is still in court, it is a standard universal legal principle.

Its really rediculous when people comment on issues way beyond their knowledge and exhibit crass ignorance without qualms thinking they have said something reasonable.

Obj can only publish a book that has no contested issues in that book in court and if there are issues from that book that is before the court then he has to wait untill the issue in dispute before the court is decided upon then he can publish his book along with those content in it only if the courts ruling is in his favour, untill that happens all parties must maintain status quo pending the determination of the contextual dispute in court.

Who is afraid of Baba's blunt exposure? Fashamu? Same regional "leader" of a political party and same "wanted" guy who should be in US answering some questions?

On a more serious note, if he/or they have NOTHING to hide, why this? And would our Judiciary be used to cover up evils?
