*Say he did not commit offence against known

Nigerian law By Nwabueze Okonkwo.

Two legal giants based in Onitsha, Anambra state, Ben Okoko, chairman of Idemili branch of Nigerian Bar Association, NBA and Chris Adimora, chairman of Anaocha branch of NBA have vehemently condemned the denial of bail to the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
Detained leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu in court. They said that as far as they were concerned, Kanu did not commit any offence against any known Nigerian law to have warranted his bail denial and continued detention in the prison custody.

According to Adimora who spoke in a interview withnewsmen in his office, yesterday, “the reasons adduced by the prosecution for refusing Kanu bail is not tenable. He did not commit any offence by having dual citizenship. He can’t be refused bail because his charges are still mere allegation which are not yet proven”.

“As far as I know, he continued, Kanu did not
commit any offence. They were just fishing for
evidence to keep him in jail until they came up with this trump up charge of treasonable felony”.
“That he opened a radio station in a British air wave is not an offence in Nigeria. That he called President Muhammadu Buhari names does not amount to treasonable felon but mere agitation. He is only expressing and speaking the minds of millions of marginalized Biafrans and that does not amount to treasonable felony as the court states”.

Adimora further declared: “I hope they will be
gentlemanly enough to produce evidence against him during the trial. The state is not sincere with its citizens or else why did they not bring up all his
charges at the initial stage. This treasonable felony charge was brought up on a second thought, after they fail to prove the initial terrorism charge against him, which led to court granting him bail”.

“In summary, he further stated, I must state that the court denied him bail based on the same reason adduced by Buhari during his media chat that Kanu is a dual citizen and we were not surprised that the court eventually came up with the same issue as one of the reasons that led to his bail denial. They are just looking for a charge against him. They used coercive power of state to intimidate him”.

“If James Ibori could be convicted in far away London and thrown into jail because of the offence he committed in Nigeria, courtesy of the extradition treaty existing between Nigeria and Britain, why can’t Britain extradite Kanu or even try him in Britain if he is granted bail in Nigeria and he jumps it and escaped to Britain”?, he asked rhetorically.

bigtt76:
Well thats great to hear. I was only suggesting what might have caused the lady's expulsion so the school has no moral or legal ground to do what it did.

Oh.. Got you!.. Naija education systems have a long way to go.. One step forward, two steps backward..

sonya4all:
Jane has the right to be educated just like any other person...i have said it before and would repeat again that Deaf persons can do anything except hearing..... come 19th Feb. myself and other sign language interpreters would be in Port Harcourt to render sign language interpretation service to Jane as well as other deaf friends who would be with her in the court room......this marginalization has to stop now.the university was supposed to hire interpreters for her hearing impaired students just like universities of ILORIN,JOS,UI,CALABAR and IBADAN...the level of ignorance in our Nigeria today is so alarming...... # justice for jane #

#ACP.. Association of copy and paste.

bettercreature:
The school has the right to expelled her because they have no equipment to teach deaf or dumb student

There are several school equiped to teach such students

Ogbeni, u nid 2 be educated. Sch has the right to expell students for MISCONDUCTS alone. Now whats was her misconducts? Is it not FED UNI? For ur info, its discriminations. She can do anytin except HEAR..

1shortblackboy:
What If she didn't inform d school of her disability how are they supposed to cater for her. Cause d system was made for people who can hear and speak. If she informed d school then maybe they would have made provisions for her learning. Like brail for the blind.

Na wa 4 u o... Shey na FEDERAL SCH BE DAT NA.. No discriminations 4 fed uni..

bettercreature:

Realdeals:
Who send them! I remember participating in the first MTN half marathon in 2002. While on Ahmadu Bello way one guy just change his running course and started heading towards the beach, it took the intervention of people around who got hold of him and tied him with rope.

.. Wow! MTN half marathon aint easy talkles full marathon. Yep! Da guy torn his cloth and unclad and then took a stick to hit wind glass of a car.. MTN marathon motto was #To endure is to achieve.. 2nd martahon was #Fun of a life time... 3rd marathon was #Run the run, feel the fun... I participated all including glo marathon.

UrennaNkoli:
Discrimination they may say but indirectly, they are doing the student a good favour. How on earth is she being expected to cope. if it was only speech problem and her hearing was okay, it would have been much more better.

Madam, negodu ife gi nekwu.. Go to Unijos, UI, Unical and Unilorin to see yourself how many hearing and/or speech impaired are coping there including me. Lack of info is more dangerous than Zika virus.

CFCman:
I don't think the schools are equipped for special needs students, unlike schools abroad.

Yimu.. Me nko wey dey 4 Unilorin?.. Bros abeg u nid to conduct the survey.

NiGeRianTr0ll:
I doubt if Nigerian institutions are equipped for special needs students...Heartless Motherfvckers and if the student didn't state his/her(yeah, I'm not reading the article) condition then the case could easily be dismissed and thrashed

go and conduct the survey pls bro.
