DSS Raid: 10 Things Justice Okoro Said In His Letter To NJC by fexti: 10:40pm On Oct 18, 2016 |
Justice John Inyang Okoro wrote a letter to the Nigeria Judicial Council. He is one of the judges in the Department of State Services (DSS) raid. Here are ten things he said in the four page letter. 1 . The Department of State Security searched all the rooms in the house meticulously and took away the following items: One(1) I Pad Three phones( only one active) USD 38,800( thirty eight thousand, eight hundred dollars) N3.5 ( Three million, five hundred thousand naira) Cheque books (Four in number) 2. He was made to open the door after a phone call alleging he has a letter from the president "On Friday, the 7th day of October 2016, at about 9.00 P.M, I received a phone call from an unfamiliar caller. He introduced himself as an official from the Presidency. He told me he had a letter for me from Mr. President...Upon the door being opened, I saw so many heavily armed men with an inscription, “DSS” on their uniform. " 3 . " Also, the DSS operatives informed me that their Director- General wanted to see me that night. I requested to visit their office upon the break of the day but they refused." 4. Explaining the money found in his house justice Okoro said: "I told them that having received the sum of USD24,000( Twenty four thousand dollars) and £10,000 ( Ten thousand pounds) a year for the past three years of my sojourn in the court as annual medical/ vacation allowances, and having not spent more than £5,000( Five thousand pounds) on each of three trips I have so far made abroad. I was entitled to have more than the amount recovered from me." 5. He said he has not been confronted with any petition "My Lord, as at the time of writing this report, the DSS has not confronted me with any petition or complaint from any quarters whatsoever. Rather, they have grilled me, asking questions on some none existing properties around the country." 6. "They have also doubted the age of my children alleging that they are toddlers. This is sad and unbelievable." 7. He alleged that failing to cooperate with Rotimi Ameachi was why he was fingered. "Mr. Amecahi said All Progressive Congress mandated him to inform me that they must win their election Appeals in respect of Rivers State, Akwa Ibom State and Abia State at all costs." 8. Rotimi Ameachi Sponsored the Akwa Ibom candidate Umana O. Umana "For Akwa Ibom State, he alleged that he sponsored Mr. Umana Umana, candidate of All Progressive Congress for the election and if he lost Akwa Ibom appeal, he would have lost a fortune." 9. Umana will pay him millions "Mr. Ameachi also said that he had already visited you and that you had agreed to make me a member of the panel that would hear the appeals. He further told me that Mr. Umana would be paying me millions of Naira monthly if I co-operated with them." 10 . Justice Okoro said he reported the issue of Ameachi's bribery attempt to the CJN ""I strongly believe that my travail is not undermined but with the verbal report I made to you on 7th February, 2016 about the visit to my official residence by Honourable Rotimi Amaechi, former Governor of Rivers State and now Minister of Transportation.

Seriously speaking, I really don't know who or what to believe in this country anymore. However, justice Okoro's summation is not only plausible but credible. 2 Likes

National Judicial Corruption. .. you only happen to remember Ameachi offered you bribe after thousands of dollars were found in your room? Had you reported the matter immediately it would have been relevant but now it seems like you are pleading for sympathy from everyone. |

jblackbell: And you believe him? No right thinking person will take an afterthought allegation seriously and that is my point. ... I have not utter a word defending Ameachi. We should allow corrupt judges to defend themselves. |

vedaxcool:you fools are the problem of this Zoo not either the judges or Politicians. 'We Steal because you don't stone us' Amechi Amechi is a self confessed thief yet you fools will rush in every thread to defend him just because he's in APC,a party full of all the fantastic thieves in the Zoo. Because your Lord Mumu Buhari said the Judiciary is his greatest headache, you fools have now tagged every judge as corrupt. Giving a judgment against APC make one judge corrupt while a judgement in favour of APC makes a judge a saint just like Abang Okon. APC supporters are the worst specie of Zombies ever existed in the history of mankind. So having Dollars at home makes one corrupt, what a waste of sperm you APC supporters are.even when the judge had explained to all the source of the dollars. Poverty and Laziness had infected you Zombies that you keep shouting each time you hear about dollars but the truth is that smart people don't keep naira anymore because its useless rather we prefer to keep dollars at home since it keeps appreciating in value since Mumu Buhari became president and banned people from using their Dom account. I can go on and on but the truth is that most of us down east knew this things will happen but we are already made 3 Likes |
