Justice: Hope For A Helpless Houseboy. by NegusNegaste(m): 10:19pm On Sep 25, 2018

Hope beckons upon Godwin Honukpe Hounzavi Femin, 30, who was arrested, detained, and
denied access to fair trial since early July 2018.

Godwin was a house boy serving Mr. Greg Obi, the commissioner for local government and
chieftaincy matters in Anambra state.

The house boy was alleged to have stolen an uncertain
amount of money from his principal, Hon. Greg Obi by the later.

Godwin in defense said, “I stumbled upon so much cash in Dollars and Naira in one of the
Rooms in my Oga's house. I was scared it might be ritual money. I told my co-workers and I ran
away.”

Chief Tony Dania ESQ had protested the injustice meted out on Godwin in Lagos. He was then
transferred to Awka command of the Nigerian Police Force. The dogged Barrister followed it up
to Awka.

In earlier news reports about the case, the motion filed by Chief Tony Dania ESQ at a
Magistrate's court Holden in Awka, had stated that Mr. Greg Obi did not know the exact amount
of money allegedly stolen from his house. The report further stated that he did not know the
amount of money in his house at the time.

The Barrister had filed a motion earlier in a court in Lagos state when Godwin was still held at
Interpol department of the Lagos command of the Nigerian Police Force, after which, he was
moved down to Awka, Anambra state.

A turn around came when on Friday, 7th September, 2018, a High court in Lagos State passed a
judgement on the matter.

The judgement favours the helpless young house boy and determined that he had suffered
human rights abuse from the Police Force and the complainant.

Meanwhile, nothing has been said about the case so far from the Magistrate's court in Awka as
at press time.

However, when reporters went to get Mr. Obi's side of the story at his office in the Anambra
state government house, the secretary to the commissioner said, "We cannot give you the
information you seek, because, the case is already in court and you don't report court cases in
the News. However, all the necessary information concerning this case has been published in
the media. Google it, if you like."

Stay tuned for updates concerning this classic case of an Ant seeking justice and victory over an Elephant.
