The GOC Enugu division 2 must also be sacked else it would seem the CP was sacked for recanting and confirming the attackers were actually herdsmen!!!

Pavarottii:
PDP taking over is sure. Oshiomole knows this. 8years nothing tangible to show 4 it. If u doubt me. Go to Benin and see 4 urself.

dubemnaija:
The way atheists thinks baffles me

searchng4love:
Unless you Seun says so I won't. But you and I know I have them.

searchng4love:
We know you. You're a baba ijebu machine operator. Only that nl rules will not allow me post your pictures. However they should be banned. I mean banned. Please come back home to the romance and sexuality sections.

lofty900:
Sports betting and forex will go on with or without nairaland. As far as I'm concerned, Seun is right, nairaland have a lot of underaged people and he is trying to protect the people.

lofty900:
Conji is bad

I didn't study law, but Buhari's war against plunderers and looters have thought me so many ways u can avoid a "ban" or jail.

In our experience, it's not enough to warn Nairaland members about the dangers of forex day-trading and sports betting. The promise of quick profit is just too strong for thousands of vulnerable Nairaland members to resist. The only way to protect them is complete censorship.

We believe that the complete ban of such content will make Nairaland a better platform for discussing legitimate entrepreneurship and finance.

Is US govt another name for Bornu State govt?
Those living in Bornu (the theatre of war) agree to this?
I challenge the US ambassador to Nigeria to address a press conference in Sambisa.

ArodewilliamsT:
Quota system illiterate, I thought you zombies say kanu is running an organised 'criminal/terrorist organisation' and the witnesses are afraid of them? Why are you approbating and reprobating at the same time?

What I expected a sane and intelligent person to do was to debunk intelligently and show us where the American Judicial system or any sane democractic judicial system allows witnesses to become masquerade when testifying. I will give you money to buy 25 litres of fuel if you do that. I promise.

At least it will help your quota system brain spend more time in classrooms than fighting in fuel queues.


Sai Kanu!

What is meant by ‘Witness Protection’?
by FindLaw UK

Witness protection is often required when witnesses are fearful of giving evidence because they believe that they or their family may be at risk of harm if their identity is revealed to the defendant or their associates during or following criminal proceedings.

If prosecutors or police are informed that a witness in proceedings is fearful of giving evidence, they must liaise in order to arrange appropriate protection to assure the witness that they can give evidence without facing any repercussions.

Under certain circumstances, the courts can take special measures to protect vulnerable and intimidated witnesses, including those who are afraid of giving evidence and victims of a sexual offence. These special measures may range from asking the public to leave the courtroom whilst they give evidence to the relocation and full identity change of the witness.

‘Intimidated’ witnesses

If witnesses in criminal proceedings are considered to be ‘intimidated’ then special measures can be taken under the Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999 (YJCEA). These may involve screening the witness from the defendant, allowing them to give evidence by live television link and allowing them to give evidence in private. In order for a witness to qualify as ‘intimidated’, the courts will consider various factors including the circumstances of the offence, behaviour displayed towards the witness by the defendant or his associates, and the age and background of the witness.

Reporting Restrictions

Under the YJCEA, adult witnesses can be made the subject of a reporting restriction, which means that matters relating to them cannot be included in any publication during their lifetime if it is likely to identify them. Under the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 1992 (as amended), anonymity in the press should be granted to the victim of a rape or other sexual offence listed in the act.

Hearings in private

Under some circumstances, hearings can take place in private, with the public excluded from the courtroom. This is known as holding a trial in camera.

We are talking fuel queue here, you are quibbling over semantics.

There is no sensible judicial system in the world where witnesses are allowed to wear masks and testify against accused. How does a Defense lawyer scrutinize the witness masquerade?

Go and read John Grisham's The client, even if mafia lords are hunting for your head, you must testify as a witness OPENLY, that's non-negotiable. This will be fair to both the Defense and prosecution team.

After testifying the Govt can then allow you go into a Federal Witness Protection Program of you feel unsafe. That's how a sound federal judical system works.

The Defense also needs to scrutinize the Witness, how do they ask the important questions to a maquerade during scrutiny? It is their job to try and discredit the witnesses just as the prosecutors discredit the accused and if you don't allow them do it. Then the Judge is being biased. He has already condemned the accused ab initio.

The Banana republic, Zoo of Africa have thrown judicial sanity to the dogs.

Witness protection is protection of a threatened witness or any person involved in the justice system, including defendants and other clients, before, during, and after a trial, usually by police. While a witness may only require protection until the conclusion of a trial, some witnesses are provided with a new identity and may live out the rest of their lives under government protection.

Witness protection is usually required in trials against organized crime, where law enforcement sees a risk for witnesses to be intimidated by colleagues of defendants. It is also used at war crime trials.

In Igbo language we have an adage, 'onye aturu ilu kowakwara Mara na ego eji luta nne ya Nara niyi'. English version, 'when you tell someone a proverb and as well explain it to the person, he should know that the money paid as his mother's bride price is a waste'. No offence.

A loaded firearm should always be pointed away from humans when being operated in a non combat environment.
