Breaking News : Appeal Court Nullify Dasuki Indictment by ChangetheChange: 5:58pm On Dec 16, 2020 |
The Court of Appeal in Abuja has set aside the indictments delivered against the former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki, in a judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja which convicted and sentenced a former spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olisa Metuh, for money laundering. A three-person panel led by Justice Stephen Adah held in a unanimous judgment delivered, on Wednesday, that the Federal High Court made damaging comments against Dasuki without giving him a fair hearing. Justice Adah held that Dasuki was not being charged as a co-defendant in the case or given any opportunity to defend himself and that the comments made against Dasuki were unwarranted. The panel had in an earlier judgment on Wednesday set aside Metuh’s conviction on the grounds of bias shown by the trial judge Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court. It, therefore, ordered that the trial be conducted afresh. Justice Abang directed that the case file be sent back to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court for reassignment to another judge other than Justice Abang. http://saharareporters.com/2020/12/16/appeal-court-nullifies-dasuki%E2%80%99s-indictment https://punchng.com/metuh-appeal-court-nullifies-dasukis-indictment/?amp=1 https://therealmnewsng.com/sambo-dasuki-appeal-court-nullifies-former-nsas-indictment/

NJC should sack Justice Abang Okon for bringing embarrassment to the Judiciary

Appeal Court Justice Stephen Adah is just flexing PDP bribe money. Even he knows that his decisions on Metuh and Dasuki will be overturned when EFCC goes to the Supreme Court for them to maintain the course of Justice. They just allowed Metuh to celebrate Christmas with his family. He is going to return to jail next year. |
