Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu of the Federal High Court, Abuja, has ordered the Department of State Services to release human rights activists, Omoyele Sowore and Olawale Bakare, within the next 24 hours.

The judge also ordered the DSS to pay the sum of N100, 000 to Sowore for refusing to release him on bail despite two court orders to that effect.

The court also adjourned the trial of the case brought against them by the Nigerian Government till December 6 (tomorrow) for continuation.

When the lawless is in power law is being broken and raped continuously.


Its time to speak up because what sowore is going through might just be anybody.

"Laws become fragile under the influence of dictators."-Wayne Gerard Trotman

Again! Again!! Again!!! and Again!!!! Release these guys for goodness sake? The Buhari govt is busy releasing the so called "repented, rehabilitated and deradicalized BH so why is it still keeping Sowore, Dasuki & co?

When does national security supercedes the rule of law? Why are the CJN and AGF not advising this govt appropriately?

The judge and any judge who tries this case is quite unserious.

If they really want to protect the rule of law, what they should do instead is not hear any case against the defendants till the court order for their release is obeyed.

Mr Muhammad said the rule of law which is the bastion of every democracy across the world will be strictly observed.“The rule of law must be observed in all our dealings and we must impress it on the governments at all levels to actively toe the path.

“The right of every citizen against any form of oppression and impunity must be jealously guarded and protected with the legal tools at our disposal.“All binding court orders must be obeyed.

“Nobody, irrespective of his or her position, will be allowed to toy with court judgments,” he said.

Laughing in Swahili..seems Justice Ijeoma didn't hear about the immediate past CJN

Under Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu's court room or under PMB's government

As far as I'm concerned, this isn't a win for Sowore, rather it's a loss.

After sleeping detention for weeks (or maybe months) he gets just 100k compensation.

Not only that, he is still coming back to court tomorrow and might return to cell if the court finds him guilty.

Sowore 0 - 4 FG

Except you want wahala, don't mess with the government.

Yoruba people say:

The one who has no sharp sword in his hand doesn't look for the killer of his father

He, just as Kanu, aren't enviable warriors because they went on the offense when they had no strength.

Is their reason for fighting right or wrong? That's another topic.

Nigeria has gone beyond the point where the law counts in the presence of the incumbent... Thanks to Yorubas that foisted this calamity upon the whole country.

Hope Buhari will release him this time

Will they listen The difference between this democracy and military regime i still dont see..

No b dis govt again How many judges and courts have asked for Dasuki's release? How many have asked for Sowore's release before now...

Court sef is tired of ordering... Nigeria is a goner

Let us see if the tyrant in Aso Rock will not respond to the order

Audio release.

BOKO Haram members are more important to us than Sowore. Please

Racoon:

Again! Again!! Again!!! and Again!!!! Release these guys for goodness sake.When does national security supersede the rule of law.Why is the CJN and AGF not advising this govt?

Same CJN that said he won't tolerate anybody disobeying court orders?

I guess he was referring to the opposition the hypocrisy of this government ehn. Chai.

Na from planet mars the judge just dey come from? Hin just dey waste hin time..
Buhari no dey obey court order or injuction,na anytime wey hin feel like hin go direct him DSS boys to release dem..
Until then.. We die there!

Good. How can you arraign someone to the same court you refused to obey its orders?? This country "comedy " is too much.

where are the "national interest supersedes rule of law crew" - u will begin to wonder at the kinds of statements that comes out from supposedly educated people in this country - even lawyers that prides themselves with the slogan "my learned colleague"

i wonder how we can run a democracy without rule of law - if so the president becomes an absolute monarchy by default as in the olden days because he alone will rule the nation by being the chief judge, chief law maker, and also the chief executioner of his own laws which is what democracy has come to abolish by giving us the 'Separation of powers principle"

but why are we really dragging ourselves backwards with full force

fingers crossed

Audio court order

Gozzzy:
Nigeria has gone beyond the point where the law counts in the presence of the incumbent... Thanks to Yorubas that foisted this calamity upon the whole country.

even if Half of Yoruba people are killed, nothing will happen because they want that presidency for Tinubu

Lawless DSS.

waste of " ORDER"


nothing come out
