Facts emerge why detained Judges were hurriedly released

12/OCT/2016 // VIEWERS:3271 // LIKES: // SHARES: // COMMENTS:






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 countenance, 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.

calabaman:
Op am not condoning the incompetence of the agent that attended to u, but help the agent that appologised by withdrawing the last image.

The agent can be tracked and even suspended through that image which shows his/her service id

Fixed!

Please this question does not go to just the nairalanders but also to the mods. I have been banned before but that will not deter me from asking this question. Why do Nairaland hide some posts?
I have noticed that some posts are hidden by the mods in a way that only the OP will be seeing it when he clicks on his profile. This thing happens most especially when it is a complaint or write-ups concerning a company such as MTN.
Just this morning I went to the politics section and wrote about mtn and also urged them to upgrade in the write up, just for me to check a minute later and the post was no more. I went to all the sections to ensure that it was not shifted to another section but I couldn't find it.
Now my question is why?? Is it that most of this company paid Nairaland to hide anything written against them or it is just bias from the MODS??
Pls, I need answers!

Why are the MOD's hiding this post?

I have all those networks, my location determines the one I sub with

The Chairman/CEO MTN, Sir, I am Barrister Emmanuel Nwasah by name. It is very germane for me to start by saying that we, the Nigerian citizens appreciate what you people have been doing ever since the establishment of your network. However, this is not to derogate from all your shortcomings which have far outweighed the benefits we should be deriving from patronising your network.
Sir, I never wanted to write about this but it has gotten to a point where I should let the cat out of the bag. Sir, you guys have been stealing from me, and I know it is not just me but some other Nigerians that use MTN. Most times my money Just disappear from my phone without any activity, and each time I subscribe for internet services such as android data plan, blackberry subscription, etc, I have found out that you still deduct my money when I am using the service which I have paid for via data bundle purchase or blackberry subscription, and I have done virtually everything required for that to stop with no success and I have two active mtn lines. Please sir do something about that.
Sir, another development that calls for attention is the incompetence of the people at the customer care service centre. Most often than not when one calls and lay a complaint, it is not easily settled until the person keeps calling for some number of times. Sometimes it would take four different customer care handlers attending to you before your problem is solved.
Just last night, I subscribed for blackberry monthly plan after recharging, and two hours after that my sub could not be activated. I had to call, and about three or more different people attended to me and at the end they mistakenly gave me daily subscription instead of monthly. They sent me the money back with a private number, called and apologised for that blunder and I had to wait for another longer period(till day break) before this could be resolved.
Don't forget that you have other networks to compete with in this country and when you no longer regard us, we will just convert their sims inside our wallets to our major lines, and send mtn to the wallets. I don't want to include my number for you people to call and start compensating me, all am interested in is you guys serving us better. Thanks!

Cc: Lalastic lala pls, help mtn get this message.

TonyeBarcanista:
Most legislators and public servants are clueless of their responsibilities.

Was it not OBJ as President then that said Nigeria's problem was leadership failure and leaders at all level has failed? He was the President o.


Jonathan in Lagos said his generation has failed us, yet he was the incumbent president and also running for election asking us for votes.

My guy I think why all this has continued is simply because we the citizens are not trying enough. When people criticise a politicians bad deeds/decisions you will see some other sets of people in the name of fans attacking his cirtics.

We have a long way to go!
