Some youths under the aegis of Coalition of Civil Society Groups are not happy with President Muhammadu Buhari’s alleged refusal to obey court orders.

They stormed the Lagos state House of Assembly yesterday, January 14, in protest, demanding that Buhari should be impeached by the National Assembly if he refused to change, The Punch report.

In a letter to the Senate president, Bukola Saraki, the group demanded that impeachment proceedings against Buhari should commence if he continues to flout court orders and the rule of law.

The letter was signed by Innocent Agbo of the Human Rights Defenders and Advocacy Centre; Dandy Eze of Paths of Peace Initiative; Comrade Popoola of Committee for Defence of Human Rights; and Emmanuel John of the Concerned Nigerians and Centre for Democratic Rights Derivatives.

“We reject President Buhari’s utterances during the recent Presidential Media Chat, that those granted bail by the court would not be released based on his conviction of the gravity of the offence they committed. That is not the rule of law,” the letter read in part.

The protesters had placards with inscriptions such as; ‘No to disobedience to court orders and impunity,’ ‘Obey the rule of law, say no to rule of fear,’ ‘Let there be strength in justice, and ‘Disobedience to court order is anarchy,’ among others.

The protesters who lamented continued detention of some “prominent Nigerians against court order,” said such action was a call to anarchy.

They warned members of the upper legislative chamber not to treat their calls with levity.

However, few minutes into their protest, another set of protesters, the All Progressives Congress Anti-Corruption Volunteers, stormed the Lagos state governor’s office, Alausa, Ikeja in support of Buhari’s fight against corruption.

They displayed placards and banners with messages such as, ‘Stop corruption in the judiciary,’ and ‘Probe $20bn missing in NNPC,” among others.

However, a few minutes into the protest, another set of They urged the president to step up the anti-corruption fight against those who had looted the nation’s resources

They said they were in support of Buhari’s ongoing war against corruption. “We believe in President Buhari’s dedication to redeeming Nigeria and restoring hope to our land,” the group said.

Recently, a renowned constitutional lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) said those advising the president to put Nigerians on the stakes and shoot them to death, without even trying them in the fight against corruption were his worst enemies. He said Buhari will know those deceiving him when the chips are down.
