The Independent National Electoral Commission says it is making arrangements with the Nigeria Prisons Service to ensure that prisoners are allowed to vote in the 2019 general elections. The Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, said this in Abuja on Tuesday at a dialogue session with the Nigeria Civil Society Situation Room Dialogue – a coalition of over 70 civil society organisations in Nigeria. The development comes three years after a Federal High Court in Benin, Edo State, ruled that prisoners in Nigeria have the right to vote in all elections conducted in the country. The INEC boss said the commission was looking at the possibility of creating polling units in Nigerian prisons to allow some categories of inmates to vote. He, however, said certain categories of prisoners would not be allowed to vote depending on the nature of the crimes they committed. Yakubu said, “We have already engaged the Comptroller-General of Prisons and we have statistics on the number of prisoners nationwide and the number of inmates that are registered. We are looking at the possibility of creating polling units in the prisons and to enable some categories of prisoners to vote. “Ghana does it but there are some categories of prisoners who by the nature of crimes committed lose the right to vote. Whatever we can do to open up the process to ensure that as much as possible Nigerians are given the opportunity to vote, will be done.” Also speaking on the forthcoming Anambra governorship election, the INEC boss said the commission would do everything to ensure that the election is not inconclusive. Yakubu raised the alarm over the wrongful substitution of names of governorship candidates by two political parties ahead of the governorship election. He regretted that the high level of non-compliance to the Electoral Act by the political parties was threatening the electoral system. Although the INEC boss declined to name the parties involved in the wrongful substitution of candidates’ names, he warned that if the act was eventually challenged in court, the whole election could be voided on that account and the nation made to bear the financial brunt of conducting a fresh election. The Executive Director, Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre, and Convener of Situation Room, Clement Nwankwo, said the event was organised to find out the commission’s preparations for the forthcoming Anambra State governorship poll as well as other elections update. http://punchng.com/prisoners-to-vote-in-2019-says-inec/ |

The raging controversy over the allegations rocking the very fabric of the Nigeria Police Force took a new twist today, with the battle now taken to the court by one of the stakeholders in policing in Nigeria. To this extent, a Lagos High Court has been asked to nullify and invalidate a wireless message (signal) issued by the embattled Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim Idris, by which he instructed all Police formations in Nigeria to ostracize her and her company. In the suit filed on Monday, October 16, 2017, Dr. Aisha Tosan, the enigmatic producer of the crime busting television programme, “Crime Fighters, Police and You”, is asking the Lagos High Court to issue a declaration that she is entitled to the exercise of her fundamental rights to freedom of expression, of free speech and the press, that she should not be intimidated or silenced by the IGP through the instrumentalities of the Police and that she should not be persecuted for freely expressing her unbiased and objective opinion as a citizen of Nigeria, on a burning national issue. She is also asking the court to restrain the IGP and the police from taking any step that may jeopardize her liberty, movement or freedom or the free exercise of her freedom of expression and the dissemination of information, in relation to her trade and practice of journalism, through broadcasting and media campaigns generally. In the suit filed on her behalf by eminent Lagos lawyer and human rights activist, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, Dr.Tosan is contending that the interview that she recently granted to a national newspapers on the controversy that has dogged the Police Force generally, does not amount to a crime in law, for which the IGP and the Police could set the law in motion against her, or for which she could be denied access to Police facilities, since it is a public institution established by law for the protection of the lives and properties of all citizens. She wants the court to determine whether the IGP is empowered in law to ostracize a citizen from relating with or associating with the Police, purely for expressing her opinion. In a 25 paragraph affidavit deposed to in support of her application, Dr.Tosan stated that she was a top crime correspondent with Vanguard newspapers before she retired to pursue a career in safety measures, effective policing and detection and prevention of crimes. She stated that through her numerous television programmes and media campaigns, she has helped to project the image of the Police positively before the public and it will be unfair and unlawful, for the IGP to now seek to gag her through intimidation, with his signal to all Police formations not to relate or associate with her. Dr.Tosan accused the IGP of not affording her any opportunity or fair hearing, in the determination of her civil rights and obligations, before a decision was taken to ostracize her and as such, the said decision amounts to a breach of her fundamental right to fair hearing, guaranteed by the Constitution and the African Charter. She stated further that the Police hierarchy, through the Police Service Commission, have since confirmed all that she stated in her interview as true and correct and it will thus be better for the Police to address the issues raised in her interview, instead of seeking to intimidate and persecute her as an innocent citizen. The details of the reliefs being sought in the suit are as follows: A DECLARATION that the Respondents are not entitled to arrest, detain or in any other manner restrict the liberty of the 1stApplicant, or set the law against her, on account of the exercise of her right to speech and freedom of expression on account of her interview as published in the Vanguard newspaper of October 7, 2017, in flagrant violation of the 1st Applicant’s fundamental rights guaranteed under sections 35, 38, 39, 40 and 41 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 and Articles 4, 5, 6, 9, 12 and 14 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (Ratification and Enforcement) Act, Cap. 10, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.

The Police High Command, Abuja, has said that it was not aware that acting Commissioner of Police, Lagos state Police Command, Imohimi Edgal, had been demoted to Deputy Commissioner of Police. Rather, it affirmed that Edgal remains the state’s CP . The high command’s position followed a letter from the Police Service Commission, PSC addressed to the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, informing that Edgal had been reverted to his former rank of Deputy Commissioner of Police. The letter which was signed by the commission’s Permanent Secretary, Mr M.F. Istifanus, on behalf of the Chairman, Mr Mike Okiro was titled ‘Withdrawal of Acting appointment: AP 25095 Mohimi D. Edgal and AP. 36665 Aji Ali Janga, It reads in part: “Our letter with Ref No PS/1924/Vol IX/ dated 22nd August, 2017 conveying the Honourable Chairman’s anticipatory approval for the placement of the above-named officers as Acting Commissioners of Police refers, please. “The Commission at its 24th Plenary Meeting of 27th and 28th September, 2017, took a decision not to ratify the anticipatory approval. “The Officers are, therefore, reverted to their substantive rank of Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP).” However, when contacted, the Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, a Chief Superintendent of Police, said that Edgal was still the CP Lagos , in acting capacity. He said: “The PSC has the power to appoint, promote and discipline officers. But they don’t have the power to demote. They can only demote an officer after the Force disciplinary committee has looked into what the officer has done and then recommend him for discipline. They can only authorize them to authenticate what the Police take to them In this case acting CP Edgal has not committed any disciplinary offence and the Force disciplinary committee has not recommended him for reduction . They can not demote him and they have no such powers. They should not go beyond their powers. Nigeria Police Force can exist without PSC but PSC cant exist without NFF. We are not aware of the reduction in power and acting CP Lagos state has not be demoted”, the FPRO stated.
