The High Court of the Federal Capital Territory has set aside the contempt proceedings and all the orders of conviction for contempt against the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa.

Justice Chizoba Oji set aside the proceedings on Thursday after hearing an application brought by the EFCC Chairman.

The application was brought pursuant to Section 6(6) (a) and Section 36(1) of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), Section 91 of the Sheriffs and Civil Process Act, Cap S6 Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 2004 and other relevant enactments.

The court found that at the time of the order, the EFCC Chairman was not in contempt of court as he had complied with the order that the Respondent’s Range Rover be released and by several internal memoranda, the Applicant had initiated the commission’s internal mechanism to ensure the payment of the sum of N40, 000,000 to the Respondent.

That Lawyer Inibehe Effiong comes to mind.

In summary, the court has lost its value in Nigeria.

The judiciary system of this country has destroyed the country.

If he is found guilty, he should face the full wrath of the law.

A better Nigeria is all we want at [b][/b].

let him also face what others are facing

So a corruption fighting agency is now involved in bribing judges

It is well

Corruption has eaten up the entire system. Our legal system is now like street corn

The Nigerian law is only applicable to commoners.

Something is definitely wrong with blacks mentally, yes by default

Useless courts. No wonder Buhari no send una. Judiciary with no testicles

If you vote for Tinubu, just expect the rise in kidnapping and armed robbery to increase tremendously in Lagos.
