PoliticsRe: Saraki's Lawyer Disrupting Trial At The CCT Today (Video) by odikimi: 8:32pm On Apr 21, 2016

I know the way you feel bro... but the fact in issue (bribe) is no way related to saraki's trial.. the bribe in question is not related to Saraki's case at all, Which I think the judge is also entitled to "presumption of innocence" as enshrined in the Constitution .. U will agree with me that morality is not Law, Even though they tend to clash a times... does it mean all accused persons standing trial at the tribunal, will tell Justice Umar that the Efcc said he collected bribe hence he cant continue with their case..
please read this from FALANA http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/07/brt-probe-falana-requests-fashola-remove-justice-adebajo-chairman/
and see why Umar can't be impartial in this case.
I deal with facts and I research on my argument.
Once you are facing an alleged crime with a party or have any issue with a body, you can't give a fair judgment.
Umar's disqualification will not stop Saraki from trial. I am arguing from the legal perspective and not on political ground. I am a lawyer/pro PDP but I want Saraki to be jailed.
However I don't want the CCT to give Saraki a good ground for Appeal.
Saraki after the case will file notice of appeal as well as stay of execution to stay in that seat.
The Court of appeal will grant the stay if there is strong believe that he was denied fair hearing which is wider than just giving him chance to be heard.
Fair hearing in Law is not just giving the accused chance to prove his case.
Saraki lawyers are setting ground for appeal against the possible judgment base on the partiality of the judge which amount to breach of section 36 sub 1. see Uniuyo v. Nse.

This news happened just yesterday or a day before.
So tell me what you think conspired between them to come up with this junk clearance?
When you judge from objective angle u will see what I am seeing.
I am the most objective man here because I hate Saraki like my poo. I want him to die in jail, but it has to be judiciously and judicially done. I hate him the way I hate BH.
However, a minister in the temple of justice, all I am agitating for is to see that justice is not only be done but seen to have being done. I despise injustice to whoever in the society.

I'm not new to fair hearing
the doctrine of fair hearing has two principles:
i. audi alteram partem---------- a party should not be condemned unheard.
ii. nemo judex in causa sua -------- u can't be the judge in your own case.

2. Now justice Umar is not the judge in his own case here because his not the prosecuting counsel/fed govt. don't forget the ''he who alleges must prove'' (Affaimanti non neganti incumbit Probatio) which is bn done by the prosecuting counsel. against the Saraki... and UMAR in the 'EYES' of the Law is the independent man (Judge).

3. ther cant be fair hearing when you are the Judge and the same time, the prosecuting counsel.... any form of judgment obtained in this form, cant stand. because the accused person has not bn allowed to defend himself. From the above Saraki was allowed to defend himself but was looking for a way to scuttle the process of justice,that is why we have a court of Appeal.. rascality is rascality and Lawyers should not follow that path.
Fair hearing as enshrined under section 36 (1) entails that, the judge shall be seen as fair to parties. The judge shall not be heard making unhealthy comments by; conduct or words. See Unwadara v. Ume. The Supreme Court in the above case held that, where there is allegation of bias, The judge has to excuse himself or determine the allegation of bias before going ahead or else it will amount to the judge showing interest in the matter. see also Nnana v. Ugo
Fair hearing entails that the judge must not have any interest in the matter. Umar is having an issue with the EFCC, allowing to preside over an issue with EFCC staff as a star witness entails that he will compromise to save himself. See the case of Adegoke v. The State.
see the case of oyakhire v. The State. please read this case on accelerated hearing to the detriment of the defence counsel, where the Supreme Court held that it amounts to miscarriage of justice in all intents

But all in all, Saraki, going, going...............

It is against the prosecution that is why the WITNESS refused to read it when he was asked to.

fair hearing u say? was the accused person denied fair hearing? NO he was not, the judge listened to both sides .. the defence counsel actually interrupted that process of fair hearing.. the judge said let us start with the cross examination and the defence, disobeyed that..
Please read the following cases and see the Supreme Court decisions on what fair hearing is:
Audu v. FRN,
Nnana v. Uso,
Jang v. INEC,
Babalola v. Oshogbo L.G.,

Excuzeme:
The Judge has not shown any grounds for Appeal!
Though, anyone has the right to "Appeal Anything" they like, it is the duty of a presiding judge to throw it out! undecided undecided

The Judge simply said "Sit down".... He did not say "I dont want to hear your motion".
If you refuse to "obey a Judge" is court room, how then do you go before another Judge to seek redress?

or have we not heard of the saying that "He who must come to "Equity", must come with "clean hands" and have shown "Equity" themselves"?

He may have the intention of going back to the raised motion, which by the way, is already FRIVOLOUS, ab INITIO.... having established that EFCC has "discharged and cleared" the Judge of any wrong doing, since Dec 2014.


You cant force a Judge to do your bidding, IN HIS COURT!
Point of other, when a judge's impartiality is an issue, it affects the jurisdiction of the court or tribunal because it has to do with the right of the accused to fair hearing. As such, the first thing the judge is to do is to rule on the impartiality or breach of fair hearing. He is being accused of impartiality so he has to settle that matter first. See Nse v. The State.
The judge is not expected to make unfair statement when he is the arbiter in a matter.
His refusal to the adjournment application was very wrong. Section 36 of the constitution gives the accused time to prepare for his case. That provision supersedes the ACJA the judge is relying on.

Some time a go, I wrote something about the immaturity on the part of this judge but instead I was insulted.
The judge has given a ground of Appeal to Saraki at the Appellate Court to the Supreme Court. You don't show your impartiality to the whole world. This amount to breach of Saraki's right to fair hearing. The Judge should've known better that the aim of the Defence team is to allow him play to the gallery.

Here you go again? You castigate Fayose but praised Amaechi and co when they were running their mouths against Jonathan and his immediate family? I could remember how Fashola insulted Jonathan and said he was the reason why Lekki armed robbery took place.
You didn't caution them nor insult them but crying against Fayose for paying them back in their own coin?

Is ds yo respond to the fact that at as when Azazi said PDP is d cause of BH, SAS was of the APC? If you agree with me that he was of the APC then, why bringing up pdp as the sponsor of BH when you are accusing SAS who was of the APC when the allegation was made? Mr. Matured mind answer me.

Why do you reduce everything to tribal fault lines? Is that part of your "up breaking"?, can't you make logical argument on its own merit?

T.A Orji is/was arguably the worst Governor in the history of Nigeria & we have receipts in the public domain of SE folks bemoaning this fact...He is in the senate...

Someway somehow he got to the Senate because his people/senatorial district sent him there, likewise the Okun people of Kogi sent their own person there as well.

How is that the fault of the whole tribe?

Maybe if Smart Adeyemi hadn't spent the whole time building hotels & neglecting his constituents maybe....

Grow up already, Yoruba people are not your problem!!
I reduced it to tribal level because they deserve it. We are of the pdp but we call for the jailing of T. Orji not because he has a fight with our party. On the other part, they call for the head of whoever is in discrepancy with their party.
I am yet to hear any one of you calling for Fashola's head for the 78m websitegate.

Now, I do not know how you managed to rope Fayose and Dino together but one thing I know is that no Nigerian politician is decent. You talk about voting, these people do not rely on votes, they have their ways of winning. Where I think something should be done is in the party primary elections but still they can throw money in people's face and you know that money can makes a Nigerian to sell his mother.

The day Nigerians stop thinking of what they can gain from the government and politics but rather think of what they can do for the government and the people, that day, there will be a change in all aspects because we will not be thinking of the politicians free money again but rather his/her capability of delivery good governance

Now, I behave like I did not read that your tribalistic line of argument, my dear if you want decent politics, take away tribal hate
I roped the two because certain people are good at calling Fayose a tout because he is of the pdp but when it comes to Dino are excusing his political party.

U didnt counter the fact that SAS the current pdp chairman is the originator of boko haram tho. You simply cant spin out of that, no matter how u try to twist the story. The head of PDP remains the architect of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Thats why a famous army personnel said: boko haram is pdp. And pdp is boko haram!
Oweye Azazi said" the in fight of PDP members". But all the members in Pdp fighting themselves then are the frontiers of apc now koh?
PDP is just an acronym, the individuals have all gone to apc, so what is your stake?
Let me enlighten your brain, when he said that, SAS was not a member of PDP so why are you contradicting your brain? pls go and see a psychologist to work on your brain so you can help your self out of this self destruction.

How come this Dino was voted in the first place? He fought while at the lower house and here he is again. The funniest part, he js from the self acclaimed sophisticated tribe of Nigeria.

If he is, then APC is d founder of Boko Haram because SAS was or is a founding father of APC. He was the leader of ANPP who merged the ANPP with others to form APC.
Secondly, it means Buhari has a connection to Boko Haram because SAS is an in-law to Buhari.
