CROWNWEALTH019:how sir? |
Ade Adesomoju, Abuja A judge of the Federal High Court in Abuja, Justice Babatunde Quadri, on Friday dismissed an application by a former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, requesting that his (the ex-governor’s) trial be returned to the former trial judge, Justice Adeniyi Ademola. Rejecting Lamido’s request in a ruling, Justice Quadri held that it would better serve the interest of justice and public peace not to return the case to Justice Ademola. Justice Ademola, his wife, Olubowale , and Lamido’s lead counsel, Mr. Joe Agi(SAN), were jointly prosecuted before the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory by the Federal Government but were exonerated of all the 18 counts preferred against them on April 5, 2017. The Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta, had re-assigned the case to Justice Quadri when Justice Ademola was on suspension as a result of the joint trial. But following the judgment exonerating Justice Ademola, the judge’s wife, and Agi, of the charges preferred against them, the lawyer had requested the Chief Judge to return the case to Justice Ademola. Agi had anchored his request to the Chief Judge on the grounds that it would be agonising for his Lamido and the other defendants to be subjected to the trial afresh when the prosecution, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, had already called 18 witnesses before Justice Ademola’s court. But the EFCC had opposed the request insisting that with the joint trial which Justice Ademola and Agi underwent, the judge would likely be biased if the case was returned to him (Justice Ademola). However, the Chief Judge upon considering both Agi’s and EFCC’s counter-requests insisted that the case should remain in Justice Quadri’s court. Despite the Chief Judge’s directive, Agi filed a motion on April 26, 2017, seeking Justice Quadri’s order directing the return of the case to Justice Ademola. http://punchng.com/breaking-judge-refuses-to-return-lamidos-trial-to-justice-ademola/

Meanwhile, the CNG’s statement read in full: “The Coalition of Northern Groups would ordinarily not have bothered to respond to inconsequential criticisms coming from people like Aliko Dangote but for the fact that they may assume some importance within the context of northern leadership. “We all know that Dangote and all those that appear uncomfortable with our Kaduna Declaration are those who thrive from condescending against northerners and the northern values. “They represent a pack of scavengers who would readily negotiate the general interest of their people in order to cover up their dirty sources of wealth and fame. “In particular, Dangote has never been and can never be among genuine northern patriots and therefore his support for, or opposition to anything that tends to serve the interest of the region and its people is inconsequential and is not expected. “If anything, Dangote is no more than a moral liability to the cultured north having become the final destination where every corrupt government official dump their public treasury loot. “He is therefore morally liable along with other Igbo accomplices for the economic hardship wrought on Nigeria in the past 25 years. “We are therefore not surprised that Dangote should openly oppose this course that is endorsed by all well-meaning northerners and the likes of Professor Ango Abdullahi and several other secular and religious scholars of note. “This is because Dangote is never known to have had any form of conventional education or religious training before venturing into dubious money-making schemes. “He is also not expected to support anything North because in the pursuit of wealth, he has come to develop an endemic hatred for his northern kith which exposes why, as the richest man in Africa, Dangote can only boast of a very negligible presence by way of investment even in his birthplace, Kano while citing more than 70% in the South. “Most importantly, we are very much proud that we are only “jobless’ as claimed by Dangote, but then, none of us has the record of ever being involved in drug peddling or currency counterfeiting. “All our lives, since childhood, we have never been found wanting in any money-worshipping venture to the point of criminally peddling hard drugs and, or forging hard currency. “We are also happy that the Kaduna Declaration has finally exposed the bankruptcy of many northerners such as Dangote who have turned traitors after riding on the goodwill of the region’s past leaders who sacrificed everything to beaqueth a fair environment to future generations. “Dangote and his likes should note that it is now a different North from the one they at will exploit with their cutthroat entrepreneurship. “They should also note that the Kaduna Declaration is a strong and meaningful statement that cannot be wished away by the rantings of the traditional explotative bourgeoisie. “We nevertheless challenge Dangote and other northern traitors to dare test their populrarity against the Kaduna Declaration for them to really know how insignificant they are worth. “And we challenge Dangote to test the political waters by making the mistake of accepting the well-known plots by Olusegun Obasanjo to get him to run for the presidency; that is when he would know the true cost of betraying one’s own people.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/06/quit-notice-youre-traitor-moral-liability-north-northern-youths-reply-dangote/ |
Irked by the comments credited to Alhaji Aliko Dangote which cast them as jobless youths seeking relevance, a coalition of northern youths, Thursday, descended heavily on the African richest man, saying he is a moral liability to the northern region.http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/06/quit-notice-youre-traitor-moral-liability-north-northern-youths-reply-dangote/

Oladimeji Ramon Human rights advocacy group, Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, says it has secured the leave of court to apply for a mandamus order to compel the Account General of the Federation, Alhaji Ahmed Idris, to publish the details of how the N388.304bn London-Paris Club Loan refunds was spent. The organisation had in April filed a suit marked, FCH/CS/523/17 before the Federal High Court in Lagos, against the backdrop of allegations that the money was diverted and mismanaged by 35 state governments. In a statement on Wednesday by its Deputy Director, Timothy Adewale, SERAP said Justice Muslim Hassan last Friday gave it the leave to apply for a mandamus order against the Accountant General of the Federation to publish the details of how the N388.304bn was spent. The judge, according to the statement, granted the leave after entertaining argument from SERAP’s counsel, Ms Bamisope Ibidolapo, who took an ex parte application before him. He adjourned hearing on the motion on notice till September 14, 2017, for the Accountant-General of the Federation to show cause why he should not be compelled to publish the details of the projects on which the London-Paris Club loan refunds were spent. In the suit, SERAP is praying the court to, through a mandamus order, compel the Accountant General to compile and pass information on the spending of the N388.304bn to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN). The group wants the AGF to, upon receiving the information from the Accountant General of the Federation, take legal action against the state governments which allegedly diverted the funds. SERAP wants the states suspected to have diverted the money to widely publish the details of how the funds were spent, including on a dedicated website. Adewale argued that the alleged diversion of the N388.304bn London-Paris Club loan refunds had undermined the human dignity of workers and pensioners facing difficult circumstances. He argued that the alleged diversion had deprived workers and pensioners the capacity to fully realise their internationally recognised economic and social rights. He added, “The allegations of corruption in the spending of the London-Paris Club loan refunds have also exacerbated poverty, social exclusion, and violated the government’s obligation to use its maximum available resources to fully realise the right of all persons especially workers and pensioners who are the most vulnerable among the population.” Cc: lalasticlala, http://punchng.com/serap-gets-courts-permission-for-n388-304bn-london-paris-club-loan-refund-spending-review/ |

Ade Adesomoju, Abuja A Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday rejected an application seeking an order dismissing the $1.6bn fraud charges instituted against Jide Omokore, an ally of a former Petroleum Minister, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, and others. In a bench ruling delivered shortly after hearing the application on Thursday, Justice Nnamdi Dimgba also specifically refused to strike out an additional proof of evidence exhibiting the statement made to the EFCC by an additional proposed prosecution witness on June 7, 2017. The application filed by the fifth defendant in the case, Abiye Membere, was anchored on the contention that the act of EFCC obtaining a witness’ statement about one year into the trial and when two prosecution witnesses had concluded their testimonies, constituted and abuse of court process. The case was commenced in July 2016. In his ruling, Justice Dimgba held that an alleged violation of the Federal High Court’s practice direction on criminal matters as argued by Membere’s lawyer, could not rob the court of its jurisdiction to hear a criminal case. The judge held that the jurisdiction to hear a criminal case was donated to the court by the statues prescribing the offences on which the defendants were being tried and not the practice direction. He said by virtue of the provisions of the Advance Fee Fraud and other related Offences Act and the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act, the court had been conferred with the jurisdiction to hear the case which involved the offences of advance free fraud and money laundering preferred against the defendants. He also held that section 379(2) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015, cited by the applicant, allowed the prosecution to file an additional proof evidence at any stage of the trial. He added that the law did not limit the prosecution to specific types of additional evidence either documentary or oral that could be filed in court in the course of the trial. He held that to interpret the laws “as construed” by the defendant would violate the said section 379(2) of ACJA and would create a “judicial clog” in the procedure of prosecution established by the law. He added that the remedy available to the defendants was not to ask for the dismissal of the charges but to request more time to enable him to study the newly filed document. “I’m of the view this application is not deserving to be granted and it is accordingly dismissed,” the judge ruled. Apart from Omokore and Membere, other defendants are Victor Briggs and David Mbanefo. After dismissing the application, Justice Dimgba fixed July 5 for continuation of trial.

Despite the insinuations and outright media reports that he has crossed over from the Peoples Democratic Party to the ruling All Progressives Congress, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro has said he had only attended Senator Oluremi Tinubu’s town hall meeting, but that the issue had been “insinuated wrongly in the media.” Taking to his verified Twitter handle, Obanikoro had variously explained that he would be open with whatever political decisions he chooses to make. See the tweets: Whatever the future holds politically for us, it will be openly done by us and seen by all but right now, please disregard those rumours. — Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 20, 2017 I commend Sen. Remi Tinubu once again as I continue to consult with my political associates and friends in Lagos, and also across Nigeria. — Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 20, 2017 My attendance has been insinuated wrongly in the media but all such speculations remain firmly in the realm of rumours and imaginations. — Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 20, 2017 As a Constituent of Lagos Central Senatorial District, I today attended Sen. Remi Tinubu’s Townhall Meeting to support her good work. — Musiliu Obanikoro (@MObanikoro) June 20, 2017. http://punchng.com/obanikoro-goes-philosophical-denies-joining-apc/ |
