Is There Not A Penalty For Disobeying A Law Court? by SamJed(m): 11:16am On Dec 21, 2015
I am not an IPOB member o but I am looking at these from a different angle...we all know that IPOB's leader Nnamdi Kanu was discharged unconditionally yet he is yet to be released by the DSS...let's look at this from a different perspective because for me it has a negative influence on our judicial system...Nnamdi's case aside, is it not illegal for a law court to give an order and it is not carried out? Won't it dent further the Nigerian image? Are our courts no longer competent to give instructions? Is there any specific issue of which a court's order shouldn't be obeyed? Please lawyers in the house I need your answers...

You can be held in contempt if you disobey a court order but then again, if the court says "release him", at that moment he is free but he can be held for another offence. In other words, he can be resurrected just like that NIMASA former DG That was arrested by the EFCC after being granted baik

Exactly, we should not also forget that the CCT asked the Inspector General of Police to produce Saraki at its tribunal but that order was disobeyed. We need to know what the penalty for such disobedience is.

Listen to ursef supermod. Soo ur saying EFCC didn't err by re-arresting the NIMASA ex DG in such gestapo style.
When your re arrest somebody without charging him to court is that not madness and affront to our laws.

What baffles me is the media trial going on now. Did they invite him and he refused to come ? Whaz d matter with EFCC arrestin people like they are fighting war. This is how they rush cases and end up not convicting anybody.
EFcC and other security agencies now use backward method unknown to d law- Arrest the person, lock him up and then start investigation. What a country. PMB is repeating d same mistake he made when he instituted WAI and daz why it cud not live after him. You don't use bragadocious in fighting corruption. You institutionalize it such that any act of corruption can easily be traced. Reform agencies, digitize systems. You ask yoursef is it that Efcc n DSS are afraid that those arrested will go clean up traces they will use to catch them. Cuz daz d only reason u wud arrest somebody b4 starting thorough investigation.

If na to copy western country na only bad bad ones we dey interested in.

Nnamdi kanu eventhough not a fan is just being held against d law and it can only happen in a country like Nigeria.

And if I may ask Mr roadside lawyer doesn't an arrest require a warrant and where so the accused must be arraigned in court within 24hrs or released?

Why is the DSS not arrainging him to court?

If you no get wetin to post then don't post on what you don't have a clue on

The EFCC doesn't need to invite you before you are arrested. Once they feel they have a case against you, you can be arrested.

The EFCC has to secure an arrest warrant from a federal judge before they arrest you.

The only time you can be arrested without a warrant is when you are caught attempting or committing a crime.

Did the DSS secure a warrant for his re arrest after being released? And when they did so how long did it take them to arraingn again?

Kanu was free to go from the court after the judge released him but for some reason the DSS said they needed to secure a release letter from the DG only for them to hold him in detention throughout the weekend and rearraign him on Monday morning before another judge.

This is pure contempt of court order

are you sure you are alright?? Releasing and holding him for another charges and yet its is 4 days now but he has not been charged for another offence. Who gave them the arrest warrant and is there no place in the constitution which says you should not hold anybody more than 48hrs in custody without charging him to court?? Well, i know why you are talking like this......... Apart from this forum you will be dumb
