What is buhari and NEMA waiting for? Isn't it time for them to swing into action by setting up IDP camps across all the prone coastal states, must they wait for it to happen first? |

pedel:he said "when we get to the bridge, we shall cross it. For now I'm busy attending to the well-being of ekiti people". I think this is enough. Let EFCC continue in its evidence gathering mode, just as he scaled through the poultry allegation, he shall jump and pass this one. Very important is his call for EFCC to beam its search light on how APC got the funding of her election. 1 Like |

Politics / CJN Berates PMB In Face-to- Face Meeting In Aso Rock by ellovee(m): 1:53pm On Oct 12, 2016 |
Mahmood Mohammed, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN,
has confronted President Muhammadu Buhari in a face-
to-face meeting in the Presidential Villa following the
weekend crackdown on federal judges and two Supreme
Court justices by the country’s secret police, The Trent
can exclusively report.
The meeting, which held in the morning of Monday,
October 10, 2016, was at the instance of the Honourable
Justice Mohammed, multiple sources reveal.
Present at the meeting were Lawal Daura, the director-
general of the Department of State Security Services,
DSS, which serves as the country’s secret police and the
president of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria,
Babatunde Adejumo.
Our findings are that the meeting was very tense and the
chief justice did not mince words when addressing the
president on the matter. The visibly infuriated CJN
tongue-lashed the president for violating the democratic
principles of separation of powers and assuming the
unconstitutional status of “supervisor” of the judiciary, an
independent arm of government.
Justice Mohammed accused President Buhari of
victimizing the judges targeted in the midnight
crackdown by the DSS for refusing to be intimidated by
the secret police over the matters of the election
petitions of Rivers and Akwa Ibom states.
According to one of our top inside sources, the CJN
exposed a series of scare and intimidation tactics carried
out by the DSS director general, a kinsman to President
Buhari, to make the bench bow to its wishes and
overturn the judgement against the current governors of
two oil-rich states.
Mohammed expressly accused the DSS DG of using the
name of President Buhari in carrying out what he called
an “unprecedented attempt to influence the bench and
pervert justice” in the country. The president was visibly
upset by the revelations and repeatedly denied
knowledge of such harassment of of judges by the DSS.
Mr. Daura attempted to deny knowledge of such
subterranean moves and claimed that the judges that
were arrested, in what the secret police wrongly termed
as “sting operation”, were corrupt. A claim which saw
the CJN shout him down telling him to shut up and sit
down.
After lambasting the secret police boss, Justice
Mohammed proceeded to unreel instances in which
Daura contacted judges handling the election petition
cases claiming that ruling in favour of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, candidates was “what
President Buhari wanted”. Again, the president denies
issuing such instructions.
The CJN also revealed that the minister of
transportation, Rotimi Amaechi offered the judges
millions of dollars to overturn their ruling on the two
election petitions. He said the honourable justices
rebuffed Amaechi because they were hellbent on
delivering a sound judgment on the cases which had
been unduly sensationalised by politicians.
Justice Mohammed revealed that Amaechi also said that
he was acting on the orders of the president and that in
actual fact, the judges arrested over the weekend were
those who refused to be corrupted by the DSS and
Amaechi and insisted on preserving the independence
and integrity of the bench.
On this revelation, Buhari presented a disturbed
contenance, our sources say. The president requested
that the CJN puts down his position which we are
reliably informed has been done.
Insiders revealed to The Trent that the climate in Aso
Rock is unusually tense following the posture and
damning revelations by the CJN.
There are whispers in the corridors that based on the
gravity of the allegations against the DSS director and
Amaechi, Buhari may let go of the duo to “clear his
name from the embarrassing episode’, a top security
source told our reporter.
President Buhari appointed Lawal Daura, his kinsman
from his hometown in Katsina on July 2, as head of the
DSS after firing Ita Ekpeyong. Daura was recalled from
retirement as he had retired from the service of the DSS
when he reached the mandatory age of 60 according to
the Civil Service rules of Nigeria. He is also a member of
Buhari’s political party, the All Progressives Congress
(APC) and served on the security committee for Buhari’s
presidential campaign.
While the election petitions were being heard at the
courts, the INEC resident electoral commissioners
(RECs) for Akwa Ibom, Austin Okojie, was detained and
tortured for 13 days and his Rivers State counterpart,
Gesila Khan , was also detained for two weeks by
Nigeria’s secret police. The harassment, detention, and
torture of electoral officials of the two oil rich states
was reportedly connected with the interest of President
Buhari in reclaiming electoral victory from main
opposition party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in
those states.
None of the INEC officials detained by the DSS have
been charged with any crime and the election petitions
were eventually ruled in favour of the PDP by the
Supreme Court.
