A senior judge in Nigeria's Supreme Court, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun has been denied visa to the United States to attend a Judges Conference.

A document sighted by worldafrica.net revealed that Mrs Kekere-Ekun, who was a former Chief Judge in Lagos, Nigeria's commercial capital was denied visa based on "sanctioned activities".

Though no specific reason was given for the rejection, Mr. Donald Duke, a former governor of Cross River State said it is has to do with the role she played in the disputed Imo governorship election which was won by Mr. Emeka Ihedioha, candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In the judgment read by Mrs Kekere-Ekun, the apex court had nullified the governorship election of Mr. Ihedioha and declared Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the rightful winner of the exercise.

The court also ordered INEC to withdraw the certificate of return issued to Ihedioha and give a fresh one to Uzodimma who was then sworn in as the sixth governor of Imo State on January 15 2020

The rejected letter to Justice Kekere-Ekun was signed by Jay M. Sorensen, American Consular officer at Abuja.

What’s corrupt in justifying the judgement based on majority votes?

Are you saying the constitution is only upright when it favors your political interests?

We can build a country that can deny visa to US citizens, a country that will envied by other nations of the world.

All we need is a good leader.

Let's take back our country,

Let's move from consumption to production.

Let's give Peter Obi a chance.

Tell us how a man who never participated in an election won the same election.
When the electoral act clearly stated that before a candidate will be declared winner, he must have taken part in the election?

Useless urchin , tell me a country you can be successful in, without USA's input? Even your Chicago bobo mentor was a drug baron in US.

Your Senate president Lawan.

Fake news
We need a credible website

You see why a Tinubu presidency is very dangerous, once he hijacks something he likes to turn everyone there to his puppets, Nigerians will never be puppets to Tinubu, that is why....


Nigerians have chosen President Peter Obi(GCFR)

PointZerom:


Your Senate president Lawan.

Well we are talking about Hope here ,why his governorship can’t be questioned because he won the majority votes that Ihedioha failed to win despite having higher votes .

But if you’re digressing to Lawan ,then he won based on technicalities.

Stop calling your mother when commenting

I am neither PDP nor Apc but this is a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of Nigeria by the US.

Who appointed the US to be the Chief Custodian of Global Justice?

Does the US think the world is oblivious of their violation of human rights and perverting the course of justice? What with the illegal invasion of Iraq under the false pretext of Saddam having weapons of mass destruction? Have the war crimals called Bush and Blair faced any justice for the war crimes in iraq that killed or mained millions of civilians?

Who sanctions the US for holding people indefinitely without trial in Guantanamo Bay?

Who sanctions the US and NATO for bombing Libya and killing their president?

Who sanctions the US for invading Afghanistan ?

Who sanctions the US for supporting Israel to kill innocent Palestinians?

The list is endless!

Yet the US has the temerity, audacity, effrontery and superciliousness to talk about morality and justice and human rights?!!

To he'll with the US and the terrorism and immorality that it spreads across the globe by force.

Thank God the US empire is having its last kicks before it gives up the ghost for the good for the world. There's no doubt that the world will be a better place without the Satan called the USA.

Someone doesn't want you in his home, is it by force?
Before they carry their technicality and go corrupt the other judges turning rotten situations to a bad one everywhere they go .
Now whatso ever they were paid, I hope it's balanced enough to counter the shame and about drowning career.
Thanks to Duke for bringing it out to the public because the judges can pay millions to keep it a secret.
I recommend they go back and start afresh in thier various institution of first degree.

Very good press
