Convicted preacher and head of the Lagos-based Christian Praying Assembly, Emeka Ezeuko (aka Rev Dr. King) has threatened to sue the Nigerian Prison Service (NPS) and some of its officials for allegedly subjecting him to inhuman treatment. Rev. King, currently being held in Katsina Prison, was convicted and sentenced to death on January 11, 2007 by a Lagos High Court for killing a female member of his church and subjecting others to inhuman treatments. His lawyer, Mr. Olalekan Ojo, said at the weekend in Lagos that King was being traumatised with prison officials denying him access to visitors, mostly his family and church members. He argued that under the country’s Constitution, Rev King is entitled to receive visitors and ought to be treated like every decent citizen even in prison, particularly when his appeal against his conviction is pending before the Court of Appeal, Lagos Division. Ojo said: "The constitutional and statutory rights of an inmate do not and can not end at the prison gate as every prison inmate is entitled to receive visits by counsel, family members and friends under the Prison Regulations made under Section 15 o the Prison Act Cap P 29 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004." http://thenationonlineng.net/web3/news/12279.html |

I cant believe his church still exists  But what kind of juju did this man use for them such that they still come visiting him, maybe for spiritual counseling  . He is even worse in prison. |

So, there is a lawyer in his right senses who has the guts to canvass for human rights for Rev King despite the horrendous torture and death Rev King metted on members of his church? Na wa o. |

Is it now that he knows what ''inhumane treatment'' means? He never knew it when he was subjecting his church members. |
