Rivers state governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has vowed that no level of sabotage deliberately staged in some quarters will compel him to abandon his mandate to serve, protect and advance the fortunes of the state.

Fubara, who said he would not relinquish the mandate he received from the people to intimidation and blackmail, insisted that he would follow the path of peace, saying that needless crisis would not benefit the state.

The governor spoke when he declared open the 115 and 116 combined Quarterly General Meeting of Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers in Port Harcourt on Thursday, December 7.

Fubara reaffirmed his commitment to serve with humility, sincerity of purpose, and accountability.

He said: “Although these are trying times, let us not forget that Rivers State is our collective inheritance, presently under my watch, to protect, defend and advance it as the governor.

“I assure you that I will not fail in this responsibility nor will I surrender our mandate and progress to intimidation, blackmail, and deliberate sabotage. I reaffirm my earlier statement and recommit myself to the path of peace as there is nothing to gain in a state of needless crisis.”

Fubara said drastic measures would be taken to strengthen education, healthcare, and social services across the state including the rural areas.

The governor said the 2024 budget of the state would prioritize and provide sufficient funding to create universal access to affordable and quality education and healthcare services in Rivers.

The governor said: “We will also take deliberate steps to unlock the entrepreneurial spirit among our teeming unemployed youths through viable initiatives on skills development, entrepreneurship training, and targeted investments in commercial agriculture.”

Fubara urged traditional rulers to be upright and royal fathers of integrity, who would not compromise their neutrality.

He also enjoined them to be courageous to speak truth to power so that they would not lose their moral authority and legitimacy before their people.

He said: “We must all be worried about the plight of our youths, especially those in rural communities, most of whom are poor, neglected, and almost forgotten in the government’s development plans, policies, and actions.

“As we all know, no human society can progress without peace and security. I will therefore urge you to continue to work tirelessly for the preservation of peace and security to attract sustainable development to your communities.”

The governor also harped on the need for everybody to have faith in the renewed hope agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led administration at the federal level.

He said President Tinubu had shown determination to pull the nation out of the prevailing economic nightmare and usher in a new era of sustainable economic progress.

In his address, the Chairman of Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers, Ohna Sergeant Chidi Awuse declared the firm support of the council to the administration of Governor Siminalayi Fubara, saying he was elected as the best and trusted person to lead the state.

Ohna Awuse urged troublemakers fanning the ember of discord to cease the acts and allow the governor to discharge the functions of his office.

Also speaking, Rivers State Commissioner for Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, Charles Amadi said his ministry had continued to maintain a harmonious relationship with the council and would keep collaborating with them to assist them in discharging their roles as royal fathers.

The NJC found Mr Falola culpable of granting an order garnishee absolute for enforcement of a court judgement "in a questionable and strange manner".

The National Judicial Council (NJC) has recommended the sack of a a judge of the Osun State High Court, S. O. Falola.

Rising from a meeting on Thursday in Abuja, the NJC chaired by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Olukayode Ariwoola, found Mr Falola culpable of granting an order garnishee absolute for enforcement of a court judgement “in a questionable and strange manner.”

The NJC said the Osun State judge erred by entertaining proceedings for enforcement of a judgement purportedly from a Kwara State court “when there was no evidence of a judgement of the Kwara State High Court before him, neither was there a Certificate of Registration of same in Osun State to confer jurisdiction on him.”

Mr Falola was also found wanting for conspiring with some lawyers and court officials to execute a garnishee order without appropriate recourse to the law.

PREMIUM TIMES exclusively broke the story in an extensive report in November 2019, detailing how Mr Falola prostrated before a lawyer who represented Polaris Bank in the suit; seeking pardon.

In a statement released on Thursday by Soji Oye, NJC’s director of information, announcing Mr Falola’s removal from the bench, the council described his conduct as “unbecoming of the standard expected of a Judicial Officer.”

Consequently, the NJC recommended Mr Falola’s sacking to Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State.

The NJC is the body statutorily vested with the responsibility of appointment and discipline of judges. But its recommendations of sanctions against an erring judge, requires the approval of the president or the state governor, depending whether it involves a federal or state judge, for such sanctions to take effect.

• NJC SACKS ONE JUDGE FOR MISCONDUCT • EMPANELS 12 COMMITTEES TO INVESTIGATE JUDICIAL OFFICERS

The National Judicial Council under the Chairmanship of Hon. Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, GCON, at its 104th Meeting of 6 & 7 December 2023 has recommended the compulsory retirement of Hon. Justice S. O. Falola of Osun State High Court from the Bench.

The recommendation was made sequel to the findings of an Investigation Committee in a petition written against His Lordship by Mr Dapo Kolapo Olowo and Polaris Bank for granting a Garnishee Order Absolute against the Bank for the sum of N283,174,000.00 (Two Hundred and Eighty-Three Million, One Hundred and Seventy-Four Thousand Naira) in a questionable and strange manner, and endorsement of the Order, attaching the account of the Garnishee with another garnishee and not the account of the Judgment Debtor who had the legal obligation to pay the supposed judgement sum.

They found that the subject Judge misconducted himself by entertaining Suit No HIK/41/2018 when there was no evidence of a judgement of the Kwara State High Court before him, neither was there a Certificate of Registration of same in Osun State to confer jurisdiction on him.

It further found the conduct of the subject Judge travelling to Lagos to visit the Counsel of the Bank in his Chambers on the issue of Garnishee Proceedings, unbecoming of the standard expected of a Judicial Officer.

Consequently, Council resolved to recommend him to Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State for compulsory retirement with immediate effect.

Meanwhile, in the exercise of its disciplinary powers under the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended, the National Judicial Council has suspended Hon. Justice S. O. Falola from office pending the approval of the recommendation of his compulsory retirement by the Osun State Governor.

Council considered the Reports of other Investigation Committees that had concluded their sittings, and dismissed the Petitions written against Hon. Justice Ekaete F. F. Obot, Chief Judge, Akwa Ibom State, Hon Justice Benson C. Anya of High Court Abia State, Hon. Justice Z. B. Abubakar of Federal High Court, Hon Justice Opufaa Ben-Whyte and Augusta Uche K. Chuku of the High Court of Rivers State, for being unmeritorious, or withdrawal of petition by the Petitioners.

However, Hon Justice A. I. Akobi of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory is to be issued a letter of guidance to take proper charge and control of his Court.

The Plenary also considered the Report of its three Preliminary Complaints Assessment Committees on 51 fresh petitions written against Federal and State Judicial Officers and decided to constitute 11 Panels to investigate petitions that had merits and dismissed the remaining petitions for being subjudice, having been withdrawn, and the Subject Judges having retired from service.

Council also resolved to report A. A. Aribisala, SAN to Legal Practitioners’ Privileges Committee (LPPC) for investigation and disciplinary action, for the unpalatable and derogatory remarks he made against a Judicial Officer and by extension, the NJC in his petition to the Council.

Council considered and declined the request of Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State requesting its permission to swear in the next Most Senior Judge in the State in acting capacity, following allegations levelled against Hon. Justice Adepele Ojo, Chief Judge, Osun State and the resolution of the State House of Assembly to suspend him.

The Council affirmed that Hon. Justice Ojo is still the recognised Chief Judge of Osun State, and would not work on the resolution of a State House of Assembly, as it is the only body constitutionally empowered to investigate Judicial Officers and recommend same for any action to the Governor. Consequently, Osun State should revert to status quo.

It also received notification of retirements of seven Judicial Officers and notification of deaths of six serving Judicial Officers of Federal and State Courts.

Sadly, I don't have the capacity. I even borrowed 50 Naira for sugar today. Maybe one day, I'll surely see how an airport or a plane looks like. For now, lemme finish my garri before I faint.
