TRIAL OF NNAMDI KANU & OTHERS: CANT BUHARI & DSS PROVE ITS CASE IN THE OPEN?

By Chuks Ikedigwe

As the Tuesday 13th December, 2016 date slated by the Abuja Federal High headed by Justice Binta Nyako to rule on the Federal Government of niGERia via DSS application to use Identity and Screen Shielded AKA Masquerade AKA Ojuju Calabar witnesses in the Treason trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) approaches, it has become important to POINT OUT to the public and also the prosecution and equally the judge not forgetting the Hitler Protégé President of the country, African Hitler Muhammdu Buhari (AHMB) on what the laws of niGERia says on how to prove treason and treasonable felony Charges before the law courts.

THE LAW ON TREASON
The law on Treason is detailed in section 37 of the Criminal Code (The Criminal Code is the law applicable to the 17 Southern States of the Country) and section 410 of the Penal Code (which is applicable to the 19 Northern States of the Country). Section 41 of the Criminal Code deals with Treasonable Felony.

HOW TO PROVE THE EVIDENCE OF TREASON & TREASONABLE CHARGE BEFORE THE COURT
(1) Unlike other types of crimes that its prosecution can be started at any time, the prosecution of treason and treasonable Felony must be started within 2 years (24 months) of the alleged committing of the crime.
(2) In the Prosecution for the offences under treason, nobody can be convicted unless the person pleads QUILTY to the offence.
(3) There is a PROOF of the commission of the offence by 2 witnesses in OPEN COURT of at least one overt act of the type of treason or felony charged.
(4) There is a PROOF of the commission of the offence in OPEN COURT by 2 witnesses who are witnesses to different overt acts each of the treason or felony the accused is charged with.

NOTE:- From the above, it’s important to note that the law of the country either via the Criminal Code or the Penal Code or any other law for that matter does not make provision for treason and felony charges to held in SECRET.
Therefore, it’s paramount that all and sundry is made aware that the law does not recognize the place of Masquerade or even Screen Shielded witnesses.
It will then amount to aberration to attempt to introduce what is totally strange in law by the Federal Government of niGERia. He that makes allegation in the open should also prove it in the open.

EXCEPTIONAL CASES

The only times that the court (not the law) can allow secret trial are to protect minors or people with special needs (minors in niGERia are people below the age of 18 years). Example is the Trial of Yunusa Dahiru, alias Yellow were the Court allowed Ese Rita Oruru to testify in secret. But even at that, the world knows who was giving testimony.

There is nowhere in the world in a democratic rule, where the identity of witnesses are shielded from the accused and the public.

WHY THE COURT MUST NOT ALLOW IDENTITY SHIELDED WITNESSES.

In this reign of evil where even judges are haunted and humiliated and even members of the DSS who have fallen out of favour with the government are not spared, it will be very dangerous for any Judge to allow or for any member of the DSS to encourage this aberration of identity shielded witnesses’ PRECEDENT to be set or Stand.

Those who encouraged it today may become its victims tomorrow. And Karma as a female bitch makes it know that one can’t stop what he/she is part of or benefitted from yesterday.

FINAL WORDS

Its seems that these people in niGERian government are only interested in proving Nnamdi Kanu right that the country is truly worse than a ZOO?

If not, I don’t see why the Gestapo outfit called the DSS cannot do the NEEDFUL and nail him (Nnamdi Kanu) with reliable and trusted witnesses before the public in OPEN COURT if truly he has committed the crime the Zoo state is alleging.

Does it mean that the Gestapo organization only have evidence that can only be provided in Secret by Ojuju Calabar like looking witnesses? ****Shakes head***

Well written article I must confess.

But why is the government interested in secret trial for Nk and other Biafrans?

Does it mean she cant prove her accusation against these IPOB leader and his members in public?

I join the author in *****shaking my head*****

It is really strange that a court will be talking about bringing in 'masked witnesses' into a court of law. How will Nnamdi Kanu get justice inmthat type of situation?

Terrorist Buhari has succeeded in making great Hero out of Nk and a legend NK will remain till the end of times.

The irony is that why terrorist cum paedophile Buhari's public profile is taking a nose dive for the worst that of NK is taking a tremendous leap for you "outstanding greatism"
