ABUJA – Barely 24-hours after President Goodluck Jonathan inaugurated the Committee on Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of Security Challenges in the North, an Abuja based legal practitioner, Mr. Silas Onu, Thursday, approached the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, asking it to abort plans by the Federal Government to grant amnesty to the Boko Haram Islamic sect.

Besides, Onu, who maintained that granting amnesty to the sect would entrench a very dangerous precedent in the national polity, also prayed the court to issue a consequential order halting the continuation of amnesty programme across the country.

He urged the high court to go ahead and halt further payments to ex-militants in the oil rich Niger Delta region were President Jonathan hails from.

It will be recalled that the federal government had in June 2009 approved an offer of unconditional amnesty for members of the Niger Delta militants.

The government, on Wednesday, inaugurated a 27-man committee with a mandate to fashion out modalities with a view to getting insurgent groups in the Northern part of the country to embrace amnesty.

Meantime, in an originating summons he filed before the high court yesterday, Onu, contended that the office of the President has no constitutional powers to grant amnesty to “any group of persons or individuals who have not been charged with or convicted of any criminal offence created by an act of the Senate and House of Representatives” by virtue of section 1 and 175 of the 1999 constitution.

Those joined as defendants in the suit include, President Jonathan, the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, House of Representatives, and the Attorney General of the Federation.

The plaintiff, among other things, urged the court to determine whether the President has the powers to set up an amnesty project and expend tax payers’ monies for the running and maintaining of the beneficiaries.

He further wants the court to determine whether the Senate and House of Representatives “who have not enacted any laws in accordance to sections 11 (1) and 3(3) of the 1999 constitution can appropriate funds or accommodate or permit howsoever the use of public funds for the running of any amnesty programme, or maintenance of any group of persons or individuals who have been granted amnesty by the President.”

More so, he is asking for “a declaration that by virtue of the provisions of section 1 and 175 of the 1999 constitution and in the absence of any other law enacted by the 2nd and 3rd defendants, the 1st defendant lacks the constitutional powers and capacity to grant amnesty to unidentified group of persons or individuals who have not been investigated, charged or convicted of any offence by the appropriate bodies charged with carrying out the investigation, prosecution and conviction of these group persons or individuals.

“A declaration that the operation of the amnesty programme of the 1st defendant by setting up offices and maintaining the beneficiaries of the project from public funds without any legal instrument or an act of the National Assembly is ultra vires the powers of the 1st defendant and as such is unconstitutional, illegal, null and void.

“A declaration that the appropriation of public funds for the operation of the amnesty programme by the 2nd and 3rd defendants, acting jointly or severally in the absence of any legal enactment supporting the project is a gross violation of the 1999 constitution.
“An order restraining the 1st defendant acting by itself or through agents, servants and/ or privies whomsoever and howsoever called from continuing with the amnesty, or to use public funds for such project, unless such is in terms with the provisions of section 175 of the 1999 constitution or any other enacted by the National Assembly.

female/women topic........i can count the number of women commenting here because it relates to where they (women) are good at which is MARRIAGE..it jst shows you are scared of ur future.

Nice write up. Good dialogue btw d character. As a script that you are my frnd wenever yu write a script dnt read it till after 3 or 4days then open it to read again. Yu wuld be amazed at fresh ideas that wuld pop into ur mind. Yu wil see ursef modifying some scene,dialogue,adding or removing some dialogue or character. Do it twice yu wuld discover somtin yu dint see earlier and yu wuld shot this fews guys up complaining. Nice dialogue scene once again

Lookmanade: I have read the, I even have it with me presently. Thanks

Next time as you approach a lady if it rise again. Make a joke about it b4 d lady. Say sometin like ' junior why do yu like embaraSsing me outside. Is it because yu av seen a cute ur woke up' . D girl will bust in laughter and say, yu ar funny. That will make yu more relax and it will go down at once

You av nt learnt to be a man. I can help you man. It happens 2 yu because yu ar sexually desperately. All those books yu av been reading cant help. This book wuld teach hw 2 over come this. The book is called Double your dating by d'angelo. Quote this comment if yu ar interestd

Yes,99.9% of Nigerians are not corrupt. We only have a system that does not punish corruption as it is suppose to be punish and machinery like ICPC and EFCC that are not truely independent to clean the system of CORRUPTION. CORRUPTION you are dead in Nigerian.Amen

i cant find the attachment sola

alexchiny: Nobody is forcing you to watch bro.

Hw old are you. Teenagers commenting who know nothing about the economic situation in d country

6 so far. But am retiring with this one i av now.

Fake story.......seeking attention and unnecessary comments

mysticgal: lol ah,i would soon leave the teengers badge soon,but i discovered that everybody nl is a man and woman.like am 21 years old.

I wnt to add you on facebook.wotz ur fb name

sholay2011: Lol...I feel dat's even d most original of d dialogue in d script. Most Yoruba women of dat age wud rada speak Yoruba wiv dia son dan english especially wen dey re nt d rich type. Come on!

No,i dont mean her speaking yoruba to her son.i speak yoruba very well. But the food part tin. I wuld prefer he goes 2 d kitchen 2 make 4 himself,his younger one maybe like two younger one & 4 his mum

prof800: Oga shola, i am sorry that this is coming late. I actually downloaded the script the day you posted it but i could not read it because i had to leave home for some days to help a dear friend out of his PLIGHT.

Now that i am back home, i have read it and all i can say is "nice write up, you can do better."
I clearly understand the story, i can read your mind and i can see the vision so i know what you were thinking. (wor da fork were u thinking?)
Don't be suprised if you are not getting positive reviews, this is because there are many ways you could have written your story to make it more captivating if you had taken the TIME but lets leave it... infact na LongThing.

NOW. *Sighs*. If i were you, i would not want to use the element 'NARATOR'. I don't know about traditional nollywood, but nobody uses the element NARATOR nowadays EXCEPT when writing for a Documentary feature or any other Narative feature or for tv.

Remember you are writing what your audience will SEE and what they will HEAR, that is why every character should have a distinct voice even if it is an Animated feature.

But here we dont know the voice of your NARATOR whether he has the same voice as one of the characters you have listed in the beginning, or if it is a machine voice, a robotic voice, or the voice of MTN CustomerCare Line.

For me i would prefer to use the element 'VOICE OVER (V.O)'.

E.g LANRE (V.O): Welcome to my world.

This shows that lanre is actually the same person as the narator. Isn't it sexy?

So long as you are not trying to acheive 'suspense'-maybe u dont want your readers to immediately figure out the identity of your narator. V.O is the tool.

I know you are working for 'the best' so keep going but try doing it the way 'the best' do it.

I was thinking same over here as i read the script. nice dialogue scene but the dialogue btw lanre's mum and him wasnt original.

prostitution is now a way of life for some Nigerian university undergraduate girls. virtually all universities in Nigerian have female undergraduate practice this prostitution even private university undergraduate are not exempted all for foreign currency. this set of girls dont have role model, rather their role model are the kind of reality TV show they watch on E! and other girls who have gone to dubai prostitute and brought back foreign currency

MI no fit leave the benz for them......with all the money weh him don make. make him as giving back to abuja the state he started his music career. congrate to the fan who has kept MI's benz for him. ICE PRINCE ur turn to give back to abuja pple

Raggedy_Ann: ......And yet every saturday women of the 80s and 90s are getting married en masse.

Yes they are,that is woman, who ar already imbeded with this good qualities.the women who dnt do what the OP listed out. Am a man and i knw this

So true,particularly 1,2,3,4,7,8,12,13 and 14......thatz the reason some divorce cases happen in africa this days while some are yet 2 be married. So its even happening in kenyan when i tort it was only nigeria. Ladies in Nigeria is a passionate plea from all men please yield to wisdom and good advice.
