Rivers State Government  hands over New Federal High Court complex to Chief Judge of the Federal High Court

In a bid to improve access to justice, the Rivers State Government  has handed over the New Port Harcourt  Federal High Court complex constructed  by the Wike administration  to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta.

The hand-over of the Complex which houses six courtrooms  was preceded by a formal commissioning by the Chief Judge, Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim  Auta on Friday .

Speaking  before handing over the Federal High Court complex  to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike stated that his administration  resolved to strengthen  the judicial system  as a way of promoting good governance and making Rivers State  a regional judicial  hub.

He said: "We therefore resolved not only to complete all stalled court projects but also, to initiate new ones to meet the increasing demand for judicial services by our people.

"In a country such as ours, where the justice delivery system is pretentiously federal but manifestly unitary, our quest for having the most modern and advanced court houses and justice system cannot be completely achieved if we limit our judicial transformation agenda only to State Courts.

" This is part of the reason behind our inclusive and non-discriminatory policy thrust of providing modern court buildings and necessary operational support to Federal Courts at enormous financial cost to Rivers taxpayers."

Governor Wike emphasised: "Let it also be known that we have built this courthouse to serve and advance the public interest and not to satisfy any other self-promotive motives. Accordingly, we have fulfilled our duty as leaders who mean well for our country and its progress.

"All that we ask in return is for the Federal Government to provide for the regular care and maintenance of this building so that its functionality is preserved for the use of the present and future generations."

The governor regretted the hunting and hounding of  a small band of targeted judges to prison in Gestapo style even before allegations against them were investigated.

He said such actions amount to  political witch-hunt and practical strategy to browbeat the judiciary into submission.

He said: "This nation must find better ways of fighting judicial and other corruptions with all the seriousness they deserve within the framework of the rule of law instead of entertaining the gullible public with a phantom and tendentious actions against corruption."

Commissioning  the Port Harcourt Federal High Court complex built and donated by the Rivers State Government, the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta stated that  the Federal High Court complex in Port Harcourt  is outstanding  and the  best to be constructed  by a state government.

He commended Governor Wike  for his commitment  to the provision of the relevant infrastructure  for the Federal High Court, pointing  out  that the court will dispense justice according to the law.

He said that following  the official hand over, the court will begin to use the facility  on Monday.

Chief Judge of Rivers State, Justice Adama Iyaye-Laminkara expressed happiness  that the Rivers State Government  is providing facilities  to increase access to justice.

Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice, Emmanuel Aguma  (SAN) said all the Wike administration has done in the last two years is to open courts and create access to justice.

Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Chief Onueze Okocha said the hand over of the Federal High Court complex is an addition to the testimonials  of performance  for Governor Wike.

According to the Special Adviser on Special Projects to the Rivers State Governor, Mr Dum Wite, the Complex has six courtrooms, exquisite  judges chambers, 12 holding  cells, changing rooms for lawyers, exhibits rooms and wider parking lot.

I like this Guy's spirit

Trying to seduce the judiciary with all that. If you fu ck up we go arrest you and any corrupt judge must face justice too

His wife being a judge might have been influential in the birthing of this structure.

Good one.

Believe me. That project is for politics.
Wike knew that ordinarily, he has little influence on Federal high Court. So he has to do every thing possible to infiltrate it. That project is for politics

this is bribery,why wont they influence his election case,ok he shld do Federal roads too.

The same Court where he will be tried and if found guilty jailed someday.

Enemy of progress

billyG:

So the roads he is constructing in Benue are also to influence the Tiv people? C*o*n

This is the most STUPID act by a sitting governor in the history of Nigeria. Building a Federal high Court in a Niger Delta State in the midst of recession.

If any body mentions true federalism, restructuring or any other rubbish again I will curse him
