A Port Harcourt High Court Wednesday has granted bail to Chidi Lloyd who is standing trial on a six count charge which include conspiracy to murder after 15 days of incarceration. The Leader of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd walked out of the Port Harcourt maximum security prisons at about 4:00pm Wednesday after he had fulfilled all the bail

conditions as directed by the Port Harcourt High Court .

Hundreds of his supporters thronged the prison yard in anticipation of his release. There was a joyous outburst as he walked out of the prisons.

This comes as the Rivers State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Worgu Boms, has advised the Police to arrest the following members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Evans Bipi (Ogu/Bolo Constituency); Victor Ihunwo (PHALGA Constituency III), Martins Amaewhule (Obio/Akpor Constituency I), Okechukwu Chinda (Obio/Akpor Constituency II) and Kelechi Nwogu (Omuma Constituency) for the role they played in the bloody confrontation that took place on the floor of the House on the 9th July.

Following an application for bail filed by Lloyd’s counsel Mr. Beluolisa Nwafor (SAN), the presiding judge, Justice L.L. Nyordee, after thorough legal scrutiny of the bail application which the prosecutor and the State Attorney General did not oppose, decided to grant bail to the lawmaker under stringent conditions.

Before granting Lloyd reprieve, Justice Nyordee observed that all the six count charges for which he is standing trial are criminal offences that are not punishable by death and are indeed bailable. According to him, even in a case when an offence is punishable by death, the court could still exercise its discretion to grant bail to an accused person pending the determination of the case. According to him, “the essence of bail is to grant the accused person temporary liberty to prepare for his defence.”

Justice Nyordee in granting Lloyd bail of N10 million, demanded that he deposit his international passport with the court and provide three sureties, who must be residents of Port Harcourt. The Judge said two of the sureties must deposit their photo passport with the court and must provide evidence that they own landed properties with certificate of occupancy in the State. Another condition of bail which the lawmaker must fulfill is that one of the surety must be a grade level 16 civil servant in the State who will have to provide a written letter from the head of his department.

After listening to the bail conditions which he applauded, lead counsel to the accused, appealed to the Judge to rescind the condition that Lloyd should deposit his international passport with the court. According to him, the request had become imperative to enable Lloyd travel aboard for medical treatment. The Judge however declined to grant the appeal.

Justice Nyordee has meanwhile fixed November 21, to hear the motion of notice filed by counsel to Lloyd..

In anticipation that he might fulfill all his bail conditions , some operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, laid ambush within the court premises in a bid to arrest Lloyd.

However, the inability of Lloyd to meet the bail conditions, thwarted the effort of the EFCC officials to arrest him as planned. And as he left the court premises, hundreds of youths from his constituency besieged the prisons vehicle that brought him to court as it drove off, in a bid to resist the EFCC attempt to arrest him.

Reacting to the EFCC plans to pick up Lloyd after the court granted him bail, the Attorney General urged the anti-graft agency to respect the subsisting court order that prohibits it from investigating the state finances.

Boms said the actions of the EFCC could be liken to a deliberate attempt to ridicule the country’s legal system.

“There are subsisting judgment of the Federal High Court that bar the EFCC from inquiring into the accounts of the Rivers State Government. it will be better if the EFCC should respect the laws of our land. This approach to legal system ridicules the justice system” he added.

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A massive early-morning fire destroyed the arrivals hall at Kenya's main international airport Wednesday, forcing the closure of East Africa's largest airport and the rerouting of all inbound flights.

No serious injuries were reported, said Michael Kamau, the cabinet secretary for transport and infrastructure. Two people were treated for smoke inhalation.

The fire broke out on the 15th anniversary of the bombings of the U.S. Embassy buildings in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, in neighboring Tanzania, but there were no immediate signs of terrorism in Wednesday's fire. Kenya's anti-terror police boss, Boniface Mwaniki, told The Associated Press that he is waiting for the fire to be put out so that he can inspect the scene before making a judgment.

Dark black smoke was visible across much of Nairobi as emergency teams battled the blaze. Passengers reported a slow response by the under-resourced fire brigade. The fire raged for more than four hours before being contained, though flames still persisted two hours later.

"It was huge, the smoke billowing, and it didn't seem to be stopping," said Barry Fisher, who had hoped to fly to Ethiopia on Wednesday morning.

The fire gutted the international arrivals hall, where passengers pass through immigration and retrieve their luggage. The Kenya Airports Authority closed Jomo Kenyatta International Airport until further notice.

"We reassure international and local travelers that arrangements are being put in place to restore normal operations. The airlines are working to assist stranded passengers and advise them on the measures being put in place to resume services at JKIA," said Stephen Gichuki, the director of the Kenyan Airports Authority.

The Nairobi airport is the busiest in East Africa, and its closure is likely to affect flights throughout the region and beyond.

Kamau said the fire began at 5 a.m. in the immigration section of the arrivals hall. Inbound flights were diverted to the coastal city of Mombasa, he said. Kenya's Red Cross said that flights were also being diverted to Dar es Salaam, Entebbe, Uganda and the Kenyan cities of Eldoret and Kisumu.

As in many countries in East Africa, public sector services like police and fire units in Kenya are hobbled by small budgets and outdated or no equipment. Many of the responding units to Wednesday's fire were from private security firms.

A British passenger, Martyn Collbeck, said he was surprised that the airport wasn't shut sooner so that emergency vehicles could respond.

"When I arrived there were one or two fire engines parked outside the international arrivals. It spread very fast," said Collbeck, who had been scheduled to fly to London on an early morning KLM flight. "There were a couple of explosions which I think were a couple of gas canisters."

"I would have expected more fire engines to respond faster," he added.

There may not have been fire engines available to respond. The country's largest newspaper, The Daily Nation, reported last month that Nairobi County doesn't have a single working fire engine, and that three fire engines were auctioned off in 2009 because the county hadn't paid a $1,000 repair bill.

"It is a disgrace of biblical proportions that the entire Nairobi County does not have a public fire engine in working condition," the paper wrote in an editorial last month. "When (government leaders) were debating their budgets, they did not deem it fit to set aside money either to buy new ones or repair the old ones. But they did set aside money to build mansions for governors, big vehicles for county executives and other needs without a direct benefit to Kenyans."

The paper said the collapse of the fire department means responses to disasters is in the hands of private companies and the military.

Fisher, a trade specialist who lives in Nairobi, described the scene as chaotic.

"There was no one stopping any traffic going to the road to the airport," he said. "A number of fire trucks and ambulances were trying to negotiate their way through the lane. ... They were trying to weave their way through a solid two lanes of cars."

By early afternoon, passengers began to grumble that minimal assistance was being offered. Passenger Medr Gudru, a 66-year-old German, had hoped to fly home on Wednesday but the fire stranded him with no information, he said.

"This is too much. It was very nice here but this is just a mess," he said.

Kenya Airways, the country's flagship carrier, diverted five flights to Mombasa and said all of its transit passengers were being moved to hotels. The airline reported that one passenger and one employee suffered from smoke inhalation.

Jane Waikenda, the director of the Department of Immigration Services, sent out rapid-fire messages on Twitter in a bid to soothe frayed nerves.

"I would like to reiterate that we doing what must be done to have full immigration services up," she wrote, before adding moments later: "you can never please everyone. We appreciate being held accountable as we strive to serve all Kenyans fairly."

take dat: And where did you get the "X-ray of the Five visiting governors" because obviously, It isn't part of the report? Crediting it to the Nation reeks of mischief.

take dat: No Source?


I guess he is trying to reach out to the aggrieved governors. Airing of grievances, Back-room deals, political horse-trading and compromises are part of the political process/world. OBJ and IBB still remains a behemoth of some sort.
