The President Muhammadu Buhari-led Nigerian government has again been lambasted over the Department of State Services’ unjust incarceration of 20-year-old woman, Idara Gold, for 11 months for wearing a Biafra-themed outfit.
The African Action Congress presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, who is also human rights activist, confirmed in a tweet on Wednesday that Idara was brought to court by the DSS on Wednesday after about a year in illegal detention.
“#FreeIdaraGold Now: Lawless DSS shows up in court with Idara Gold today, first time since her abduction. She was arrested for putting on this Biafran themed dress to celebrate her birthday. @MBuhari made Nigeria the most harrowing place to live on earth. #WeCantContinueLikeThis,” Sowore tweeted.

Meanwhile, SaharaReporters had reported that outrage continued to trail Idara’s detention  by the DSS.
She has been detained for 11 months without trial after she was arrested for wearing a Biafra-themed outfit.
SaharaReporters earlier reported that Idara Gold, a 20-year-old activist from Akwa Ibom State was unlawfully arrested and detained in Enugu by the DSS.
Her crime was wearing a Biafra-themed outfit, it was learnt.
According to reports, she was accosted by the police on November 8, 2021, in Enugu. The policemen were said to have browsed through her phone.
"When they saw a picture she had posted online wearing a Biafran attire to celebrate her 20th birthday, she was arrested and handed over to DSS in Enugu from where she was transferred to DSS Headquarters, Abuja.
"Since November 8th, 2021 to this day, the DSS has denied her access to her lawyer, family and friends, and have not charged her with any offence," a human rights activist, Osimond Ugwu had told SaharaReporters.
Ugwu stated that when her family approached an Abuja High Court seeking enforcement of her fundamental rights, DSS filed an affidavit, claiming that they had concluded their investigation into the matter in January 2022.
In the affidavit obtained by SaharaReporters, the DSS told the court that it had transferred her to a military barracks in Kainji, Niger State, in February and her case file had been transferred to the Federal Ministry of Justice.
eanwhile, a campaign calling for the immediate release of Idara Gold from custody has been launched on various social media platforms with #FreeIdaraGold

Mike Ozekhome, SAN, the lead counsel to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has written to the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice (AGF), Abubakar Malami, demanding immediate compliance with the judgment of the Court of Appeal on Kanu.

Ozekhome demanded the AGF to immediately and unconditionally release Kanu from the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) in a three-page letter dated October 17, 2022 and captioned “RE. APPEAL NO: CA/ABJ/CR/625/2022; CHARGE NO: FHC/ABI/CR/383/2015 between Nnamdi Kanu vs Federal Republic of Nigeria.”

Details of the letter sighted by SaharaReporters read, “May the Hon. Attorney General kindly refer to the above captioned appeal, and more particularly, the attached certified judgment of the Court of Appeal in respect of the subject matter and the accompanying Enrolled Order of the Appellate Court.

“Recall that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was forcibly abducted from Kenya and was consequently extraordinarily renditioned to Nigeria. Upon being brought before the court on the 29th day of June, 2021, the court directed that he be remanded in the facility of the State Security Service. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been in the custody of the State Security Service, from the said 29th June, 2022, till date.

“Following the heinous manner in which he was abducted and consequently renditioned to Nigeria, we challenged the jurisdictión of the court to try Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, predicated on this extraordinary rendition, amongst other grounds. The trial court partly upheld the preliminary objection and consequently struck out 8 out of the 15-count amended charge pending against Nnamdi KanuBeing dissatisfied with the said decision of the trial court, we appealed against same to the Court of Appeal.

“The Court of Appeal while delivering its judgment on the 13th day of October, 2022, unanimously condemned the extraordinary rendition of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria and the gross violations of his rights. The Court of Appeal consequently allowed the appeal. The ruling of the Federal High Court, Abuja, per Hon. Justice B.F.M. Nyako, delivered on the 8th April, 2022, was accordingly set aside by the Appellate court in their Judgment.

“The Charge No: FHC/ABJ/CR/383/2015, which had been pending against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu since 2015, was consequently terminated and struck out, and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was discharged by the Court of Appeal. The Court of Appeal further unanimously held that the extraordinary rendition of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is a permanent bar to any prosecution of or indictment against Mazi Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in any court in Nigeria.

“Following the judgment of the Court of Appeal discharging Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, whose certified true copy is herewith attached, it becomes incumbent on you to IMMEDIATELY and UNCONDITIONALLY release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu presently held in the State Security Service custody, in compliance with the said Judgment.

“On the strength of this judgment of a superior court of record, we respectfully urge your good office to: immediately comply with the judgment of the court herein attached; order the immediate and unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, now being illegally held in solitary confinement in the State Security Service facility, at the Abuja Headquarters.

“In anticipation of your expected co-operation in this regard, may the Hon. Attorney General accept the aşsurances of our deepest regards.”

Recall that the Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday ruled that the rendition of Kanu from Kenya was illegal and therefore he should be discharged and acquitted.

However, Kanu is still in the custody of the DSS as the AGF, Malami insisted that he (Kanu) was only discharged but not acquitted.

Stop the rubbish and thoughtless talk, do you need the FG to lecture you or force you to stop acting like animals and stop killing your own mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters?

Can you people not stop saying the dumbest nonsense?

Besides, your governors are your primary chief law enforcement officers, they collect and pocket billions in security votes every month.'

Even sef, when they arrest or kill terrorists, you terrorist lovers in that region still insult and abuse the FG, you say they killed innocent igbo people and label them, terrorists, this is your evil ways and manner of reasoning.

And if the FG send troops to that hell hole, the whole of that region and their leaders go shout right away that the FG is coming to commit genocide against igbo people.

We know you and how you operate, you are all the same...


Rest abeg..

Elder statesman and leader of the Pan-Niger Delta Forum, Edwin Clark, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to order the release of the leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, in line with the appeal court’s judgement.
SaharaReporters on Monday reported that Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the lead counsel to Kanu said that the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, and the Director General of the Department of State Service (DSS) Headquarters, Abuja had been served with the judgment of the Appeal Court which discharged ad acquitted the IPOB leader.
Ejiofor had said Kanu could not hold back his extreme joy over the judgment, adding that the DSS was expected to release Kanu from the detention without further delay in compliance with the court order.
The lawyer made this disclosure in a statement on Monday evening after Kanu’s legal team visited the IPOB leader in detention in Abuja.
Recall that the Nigerian government in June 2021 “abducted” Kanu in Kenya and returned him to the country for continuation of his trial on treasonable charges.
However, Kanu had filed an appeal against the government that his extraordinary rendition from Kenya was illegal.
Following Kanu’s appeal, a three-man of Court of Appeal on Thursday in their ruling discharged and acquitted the IPOB leader, and ordered the Nigerian government and its security agents to release Kanu from detention.
But the AGF, Malami insisted that Kanu was only discharged but not acquitted and therefore, his case against the government is not over.
In a statement on Monday, Clark also faulted Malami, whom he said had abandoned part of his job and involved in what he described as “executive rascality,” to the dismay of patriotic citizens.
He said, “I consider this stance of the Federal Government as rather imperious and needless. I, therefore, earnestly call on President Muhammadu Buhari to obey the judgment of the Court of Appeal and order the immediate release of Nnamdi Kanu in the interest of peace in the country, the South East Zone, in particular.
“I remember, and it is well known, that when the leaders, elders and traditional rulers of the South East pleaded with President Muhammadu Buhari during a meeting in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, to release Kanu and other pro-Biafra agitators in detention, the President responded that Nnamdi Kanu’s fate will be decided by the court. And even when they (Igbo leaders) visited him at Aso Rock, the President again said the matter was no longer in his hand and the security agencies, but in the hand of the judiciary and that whatever the court decides would be final.
“Now that the Court of Appeal has given its judgment on the matter, I am imploring the President to obey the judgment of the court and release the young man, and allow peace to reign. At this time, when insecurity is the order of the day, anything that would enhance the peace and stability of the country must be embraced.
“The Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, SAN, needs to appreciate the fact that he is the Chief Law Officer of the Federation as provided in Section 150 (1) of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria (as amended). He is expected to play a neutral role at all times and in all matters. He is not the Chief Law Officer of a section of the country, a group, or even the President. But, I have, sadly, observed that the Attorney General has, no doubt, abandoned part of his job and is now involved in ‘executive rascality’, to the chagrin and dismay of patriotic Nigerians at home and abroad.”
The leader of PANDEF also called on Buhari to reassure the citizens of their oneness and treat every part of the country equally.
“The unity of Nigeria can only be achieved and sustained if every part of the country is treated equally with the other parts, in all ramifications. No one can play God over Nigeria and no section owns this country more than any other section. We want Mr President to reassure Nigerians of our oneness,” he added.

PandoraObi:
IPOB miscreants and cannibals should go back to court to adjudicate or absorb him of inciting violence and killing of Igbos and destruction of properties in Lagos, so he can be free

FreeStuffsNG:
Even Ozekhome was not this brazen except this is just Sowore doing his thing. The judgement was on rendition and Falana or Saharareporters avoided it.

I expect that the judgement copy will be out soon and we all see.
The court must get justice for the victims of his violent rhetorics!

Throwback:
Say that to the Akunyili family.

Sacrednes:
bubu won't obey court other..

Throwback:
This clown is never serious and always clowning around, hence no party or electorate take him seriously.

Kanu can never see freedom with all the atrocities he committed while on bail and after he jumped bail.

We have not even mentioned the atrocities committed for which he was arrested in the 1st instance.

While Kanu wasted the life of many with his insurrection and terrorism, his own time will be wasted away in this life.

Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, has warned that the Nigerian government’s argument that there are pending charges against the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, at the Federal High Court was a "contemptuous mockery" of the Court of Appeal's judgment which is binding on all authorities.

Falana warned that the President Muhammadu Buhari led-Nigerian government should not twist the judgment of Court of Appeal on Nnamdi Kanu.

SaharaReporters had reported that a three-man Panel of Appeal Court Justices had on Thursday upheld the appeal of Nnamdi Kanu which sought an order of the court to discharge and acquit him of remaining 7-counts charge bordering on terrorism against him.

Kanu had in his appeal dated April 29 and marked CA/ABJ/CR/625/2022 applied to be discharged and acquitted. Kanu was first arraigned on December 23, 2015, and was later granted bail on April 25, 2017.

The Court of Appeal in upholding his appeal, discharged him of all the charges and further declared as illegal and unlawful, his abduction from Kenya to Nigeria and quashed the entire terrorism charges brought against him by the Federal Government.

Shortly after, the Federal Government through the Attorney General of Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN) said interpreted the judgment and said that Kanu was only discharged but acquitted.

Reacting to the insistence of the federal government that the IPOB leader had pending charges in court, Falana said that the Court of Appeal’s judgment was binding on all authorities and persons in Nigeria by virtue of section 287 of the 1999 Constitution of the Republic.

In a release, Falana said, "In the case of Nnamdi Kanu vs Federal Government of Nigeria, the Federal High Court had upheld the preliminary objection of the defence team led by Chief Mike Ozekhome SAN and dismissed 8 out of the 15-count charge against the defendant.

"In its judgment delivered yesterday the Court of Appeal dismissed the remaining 7-count charge and discharged Mr. Kanu on the main ground that his rendition in Kenya had rendered the entire proceedings in the Federal High Court illegal under the Nigerian Constitution and under international law. Consequently, the Court of Appeal ordered Mr. Kanu's immediate and unconditional release from the custody of the State Security Service.

"Therefore, the claim of the Federal Government that there are are some pending charges against Mr. Kanu in the Federal High Court is a contemptuous mockery of the Court of Appeal whose judgment is binding on all authorities and persons in Nigeria by virtue of section 287 of the 1999 Constitution of the Republic."

Kanu had been re-arraigned before a Federal High Court on amended 15 counts bordering on treasonable felony preferred against him by the Nigerian government.

However, on April 8, Justice Binta Nyako struck out eight of the 15 counts.

While ruling on the preliminary objection seeking to quash the charges, the judge said counts 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14 had not disclosed any offence against the defendant (Kanu).

The charges that were struck outbelow are as follows: “Count 6: Made broadcasts to attack officers of the Nigeria Police Force; Count 7: Made broadcasts in which he incited members of the public to hunt and attack officers of the Nigerian Police Force.

“Court 8: Made broadcasts in which he directed members of the IPOB to manufacture bombs; Court 9: Made broadcasts on diverse dates in furtherance of terrorism against the Nigeria state and with intent to destabilise the fundamental political and economic structures of Nigeria, incited members of the public to stop the Anambra governorship election.

“Count 10: Incited members of the public to destroy public facilities. Count 11: Threatened members of the public not to come out on 31st May, 2021. Count 12: Made broadcasts with the intention to incite members of the public to stage a violent revolution in furtherance of acts of terrorism. Count 14: Directed members of the public to destroy the public transport system in Lagos, resulting in major economic loss to the governor.”

Nyako had said that counts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 15 showed some allegations, which the defendant had to answer.

However, Kanu through his team of lawyers led by Mike Ozekhome (SAN), filed an appeal marked CA/ABJ/CR/625/2022, praying the court to quash the remaining seven counts for being devoid of merit.

MNK:All I know is that anything DISCHARGED means to be released;like discharging water means releasing water from the pipe…and many other examples.
