Dakuku no need appear in court jere, he just needs to get their own judge that will give a perpertual restraining order against Odili from ever suing him simple.

They are trying to expose themselves,how can all the politicians whose wives read law are all judges,when i noticed this i knew we cannot go far in our judicial process.All these women we know they do not have the basic knowledge of law,in other clients they are not qualified to be magistrates,no wonder the high level of corruption in this arm of government.Odili is trying to deceive us to believe that Wike did not say so,please let him play the said video of the event to Nigerians,we are not fools we understand all these gimmicks.The masses are in support of PMB in his fight against corruption,anyone who is of contrary opinion is a criminal.

You see your life, after using the same Court to obtain perpetual injuction from appearing in Court, you are dragging some one else to the same Court. Peterside will meet Peter in Court.

Amokomowo:
Chukwudi Akasike, Port Harcourt

THE former governor of Rivers State, Dr. Peter Odili, has dragged the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the 2015 election, Dr. Dakuku Peterside, to court for an alleged defamation of character.

Odili, who is claiming the sum of N6bn as damages in the suit, had stated that Peterside, who is the current Director General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, had defamed him through a newspaper publication (not The PUNCH) in February 2016.

The defendant was alleged to have said in a press conference that the State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, during a victory thanksgiving service, alleged that Odili helped him (Wike) to secure the judgement that gave him (Wike) victory.

But Odili had described the statement credited to Peterside as false and malicious, maintaining that Wike never said that he (Odili) helped him to secure election victory at the Supreme Court.

However, when the matter came up for hearing on Tuesday, Odili was asked to enter the witness box to adopt his witness statement.

Though the defendant and his counsel were absent in court, the Lead Counsel for the plaintiff, Kanu Agabi (SAN), told the trial judge, Justice Adama Iyayi-Lamikanra, that Peterside was properly served.

Iyayi-Lamikanra, however, adjourned till October 27, 2016, for further hearing of the case.

Speaking with newsmen shortly after court proceedings, Agabi said, “We sued for libel and we called our first witness. We have adjourned for cross-examination till the 27th of October, 2016.

“We felt defamed by their (defendant) publication and we are here to vindicate ourselves.

“You could see that the defendants were not in court, but they have been served; they have been properly served. The court would not have proceeded otherwise.”
