Presidency Orders Police To Stop The Case Against Fayose…padlock Court’s Gate. by Virgindove(f): 9:33am On Oct 08, 2014
Courts are set to reopen today in Ekiti State.
The reopening comes about one week after the Chief Judge ordered their closure following attacks on some judges, lawyers and litigants by supporters of Governor-elect Mr. Ayodele Fayose.
But the courts may remain closed, a source said last night, because of a directive from the Presidency to the police that the case against Fayose should not be allowed to go on.
Inspector General of Police Sulaiman Abba could not be reached for comments last night on an order he was said to have issued Police Commissioner Taiwo Lakanu, who also could not be reached as his mobile phone went unanswered.
Police spokesman Emmanuel Ojukwu also did not take his call.
Fayose is facing a legal test of his integrity.
A group of Ekiti stakeholders, the E-11, is claiming that he should not have participated in the June 21 election because he allegedly lied in his form.
Justice John Adeyeye, who is hearing the matter, was beaten up, his suit torn by pro-Fayose thugs who stormed the court, smashing property.
The National Judicial Council (NJC) has said the case should go on, with the police providing security and arresting all those who attacked the courts.
In what appears a distortion of the NJC’s recommendations, the police were last night erecting obstacles towards ensuring that the court does not open to hear any case.
The Police were said to have told judges that the environment was not safe enough for them to resume duty. They also suggested that the fence of the high court complex be raised before they could resume. “All these are being done to give the judges a sense of insecurity,” a source said last night.
The E-11, has alleged death threats on its members through phone calls and messages over the suit.
The group’s chairman, Mr. Femi Ajiniran, who made this known in a statement yesterday, called on the police and the Department of State Security (DSS), among others, to track and bring the masterminds of the threats to book.
He explained that some of its members had been receiving threats after Justice Olusegun Ogunyemi was attacked and manhandled on the premises of the Ekiti State High Court on September 22.
Ajiniran added that the threat calls and messages persisted after another attack was meted on a judge of the high court, Justice John Adeyeye.

After Fayose is sworn in as substantive gov the court can resume. As for now every litigation should wait. Fayemi needs to be thought some lessons. I hope he has fill his code of conduct bureau form because he has a date with EFCC and ICPC to account for the Ekiti people stolen N20B.

Which other media will report this kind of rubbish except the nation newspapers owned by no other than Bola Tinubu, the leader of APC, the nation can never report anything positive about the president. So am not surprised, am only taking it as the numerous lies of APC.
