A Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday refused a
prayer by a former Governor of Adamawa State,
Murtala Nyako, seeking an order restraining the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, the
police and the Department of State Services from
arresting him.
Nyako was reportedly quizzed by the EFCC for over
eight hours on June 2, 2015 after he surrendered
himself to the commission.
The governor had, by an ex-parte application,
sought an interim injunction restraining the EFCC
and other security agencies from detaining him in
relation to a case of alleged financial malpractices.
He had instituted the suit following his apprehension
that he could be arrested over the said allegations by
the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Solomon Arase,
or the DSS and prosecuted by the EFCC.
But instead of granting his prayers, Justice Ahmed
Mohammed asked his lawyer, Mr. Olukoya
Ogungbeje, to put the other parties on notice by
serving the court processes on them.
Ogungbeje, while moving the motion, urged the court
to restrain the respondents – the IGP, DSS and EFCC
– from arresting him pending the determination of
the main suit.
The fundamental human rights enforcement suit is
marked, FHC/ABJ/CS/474/2015, was filed on May
28, 2015.
But in his ruling, Justice Mohammed refused the
former governor’s prayer on the grounds that there
was no sufficient reason for the court to restrain the
respondents.
The judge ruled, “Having read through the supporting
affidavit, particularly paragraphs 5 to 19 which
contain facts relating to this case, this court is
unable to accede to the request for order of interim
injunction sought.”
He ordered Nyako to put the respondents on notice
for the hearing of his application for an injunction.
The judge also ordered Nyako to serve the
originating motion on the respondents within seven
days.
He then adjourned the matter till July 1 for the
hearing of the application.
Nyako is, by the substantive suit, seeking among
other prayers, an order restraining the respondents
from arresting or detaining him in relation to
allegation of financial recklessness in violation of his
fundamental human rights.

This criminal that ran away after his was impeached only to return 24hours after his political ally Muhammadu Buhari was sworn in. Funny enough, the man's son was rewarded with APC Senate ticket and he's now a SINator.

When shall thy people have rest o Lord! Indeed, Nyako is one of the losers of apc merger.. He is really in for a long thing. Hope he survives it and learn his lessons.

Unlike the GEJ era he could not secure an injunction to prevent arrest. GEJ gave Odilli a perpetual injunction to prevent his arrest.
In any event Nyako is GEJ's, who rigged for him in Adamawa in 2011.

So Jonathan was the person that took over from Obasanjo when Odili was given injunction? U should argÙe with sense.

As for Nyako, so you mean it was Jonathan that "rigged him to power" all the way from Otuoke in Bayelsa? It was same Jonathan that chased out CPC's Buba Marwa from APC just for the "progrethieves" to give structure to Nyako? It was still Jonathan that told him to run when efcc invited him for corruption charges after his disgraceful exit? It was still Jonathan that asked him to return 24hrs after Buhari's inauguration?

Common sense is indeed not common

I dey look ni.

suddenly d judicial system comes to life..
