FALANA WRITES FHC CJ, SEEKS TRANSFER OF RIVERS ASSEMBLY CASE TO PORT HARCOURT, CITING POTENTIAL BIAS IN ABUJA OVER WIKE’S JUDGES’ HOUSING PLAN*

Falana & Falana’s Chambers, a prominent Nigerian law firm, has requested the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Honourable Justice John Tsoho, to reassign a case filed against the Rivers State House of Assembly and others to a judge in the Port Harcourt Judicial Division of the Federal High Court.

The case, with suit number FHC/ABJ/CS/984/2024, was initially assigned to Justice Nwite and later reassigned to Justice Abdulmalik, both in the Abuja Judicial Division.

In a letter dated October 25, 2024, the law firm, representing the 9th and 10th Defendants, argued that the Port Harcourt Division has the territorial jurisdiction to hear the case, as the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Defendants have offices in Port Harcourt, while the remaining parties reside there. The firm cited previous instances where the Chief Judge ordered the transfer of cases to the appropriate judicial divisions.

Furthermore, the law firm expressed concerns about the likelihood of bias in the Abuja Judicial Division, as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Mr. Nyesom Wike, an interested party, announced plans to build houses for judges in Abuja. The firm argued that this act might influence the case’s outcome, contrary to the constitutional guarantee of judicial independence and impartiality.

Falana & Falana’s Chambers emphasized that justice should not only be done but also be seen to have been done, and requested the case be transferred to the Rivers State Judicial Division of the Federal High Court. The firm believes their colleagues will not object to this request, as they are all involved in the campaign for judicial independence and separation of powers in Nigeria.

Good one here. Falana speaking on Rivers state politics

..when it comes to the rule of law & due process..BATists & rascalities will always fall in the emilokan mud..

..Falana just reminded the rascals & touts on the rule of law & the diligence in due process..

Cho Cho cho

This is a legal strategy.

A good name is better than riches. Falana is destroying his good name over a matter that is so inconsequential.

Is it your milk?

So that they will threaten the judges in the night. IThey were hailing the governor when this issue started, over his disobedience to court orders. That was the genesis of his problem with the judiciary. He doesn't respect or obey court orders, but want the Cj or whatever to obey his own.OYO..
He has been marked notorious by the judiciary, and his only remedy is to start obeying court orders.

It is not your family's name but his, so weep not for him.

Bias is a serious allegation and should not be taken lightly.

Something should be done about the situation were the matter of a state will be taken to another state to adjudicate

Good move Falana

Wike go deal with the Rivers assembly members

You be mugu..

LandMann:
Femi Falana is a disgrace to the legal profession.

After collecting millions to get pardon for a societal misfit Bobrisky he's here writing nonsense to support Fubara who is governing Rivers state with 4 out of 30 lawmakers.

Truly Falana doesn't have common sense. He, like his other folks that are exconvicts are the chief problem of this country.

Wike did worse. Fubara must be win this fight.

Nothing is working in Ph. The streetlights have all turned off. Keke and motor bikes in roads they were initially banned from plying.
Every Tom and Dick collecting. Jerry hasn't collected because he is not interested. If Falana can come this low then Fubara hasn't a chance.

Ipobidients we were warning you people about this but you people called us name. Just as the grievances you have for Nigeria over the civil was that happened more than 50 years ago so also you have for anyone who didn't support the wild goose chase of Obi presidential pursuit.

Dalohad:

Dunderheads like you don't understand that Wike commanded the loyalty of the house. He was completely in charge. Fubara doesn't have that. The scenario is different. While Rivers State us not anyone's estate some tenants have formed a union to influence who benefits what. Wike and these lawmakers were already living in this estate. Fubara lived elsewhere but due to trust of sharing the bounties they had to call Fubara to be the caretaker. All of them see Fubara as an outsider. They have this fear of trust. It didn't take time as Fubara resumed as the caretaker that he started to give them credence to their fear about him.
So rest. It is unfortunate for Fubara.

Falana is the biggest joker in Nigeria.

Who is he trying to fool with this laughable request?

He is a lawyer earning his living while you are here defending politicians on empty stomach

If this happens, then it's another way of telling Nigerians that the Justice Commission in Abuja lack integrity.

It can't be honoured.
