VintageCocktail:If anyone thinks some of these JUDGES are better than Armed Robbers, then they need to juts look closer! The way some Judges were negotiating BRIBE (as recorded on their MTN call Logs) over the Election in Osun state, shows that our Judiciary is an "aid and abettor" of criminality. Corruption is so "deep-rooted and pervasive" in Nigeria that it will take the grace of God to see one or two Judges with integrity. One needs to ask why it is that "it is now" that this judge just woke up to know that Magistrates cannot entertain Armed robbery cases when the "common man" is being sentenced for such offences at the same courts, over the last thirty years? Now that it affects a BIG MAN, the Judge simply "regained" his senses, right? It would have been better if the Govt can set-up a SPECIAL CORRUPTION COURT that is free from the shenannigans of our corrupt Judges but l am sure that since our National Assembly is also full of criminals, they would "shiver" at such thought and would not append their hand to it, rather they would be more interested in a media bill to gag the exposure of their criminality! Nigeria is really phuck.ed ...... back to back! Lastpage! |

I feel sorry for us in this country! This judges are not helping at all. People who have looted the treasury of this country, their right should be taken away, they don't deserve to claim any right. |

omenka:U need to understand the workings of the judiciary. First, the magistrate court is not one of superior record. That is reserved for the High Court on to the Supreme Court. The Magistrate court is under the supervision of the Chief Judges of the states they are in. The Chief Judge of the High Court also provides the practice rules and procedures for magistrate courts which they are bound by. Now,the orders by the magistrate courts to hold a person pending investigation without any formal charge is tantamount to what is called a 'Holding Charge' that has been declared illegal and contrary to equity and good conscience by the superior courts of record. The Magistrate courts do not have jurisdiction over certain capital offences and should therefore not exercise jurisdiction in any guise. However, the EFCC and DSS exploit this seeming ignorance to detain a person under investigation ad infinitum until when they are ready. That power lies with the High Court especially in matters where d magistrate court doesn't have jurisdiction. That is why after playing that trick and Nnamdi Kanu was granted bail by the magistrate court, they ran to the High Court and secured a 90 day order then remembered that the magistrate doesn't have jurisdiction to entertain the matter. Knowing that was the case, they ought not to have approached the magistrate court in the first instance and d court should have recused itself and not exercised any jurisdiction. Also whether u admit or not, Nigerian security agencies are known for their torture practices and the tendency to force anyone to write damning statements under duress. They then build their case under such statement and then the courts have to grapple with whether it was a willing confessional statement or obtained under duress. The court records are replete with cases thrown out for such reasons especially when d prosecuting agency is not diligent enough to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt or never had any case fro the first instance. Now this only happens when the defendant is left in the custody of the security agencies or in prison ad infinitum. It is also why they don't do their jobs properly before running off half-cocked and their cases get thrown out on avoidable issues. Proper procedure is to release a suspect on bail for bailable offences by a court vested with requisite jurisdiction to do so. Detaining a person in flagrant disregard of such orders n procedure contravenes the constitutional provision of innocence until proven guilt by a competen court. It also means a person is punished before he is actually declared guilty and then d courts may sentence such a person to time already served. Is that proper? It is not ur place or that of any security agency to declare a person guilty. That is the constitutional duty of the courts. The Chief Judge is therefore in perfect order to issue directions to the Magistrate court as to what to do and what not to do. It is within the ambit of what a court has jurisdiction over that it exercises its discretion not just over any case before it. |

LadyExcellency:Gains of PDP ! , it is no more contested fact that olisah metuh was a the beneficiary of 400 million or that Dasuki shared 2.1 billion dollars for party interest pre-election. These are crimes and have to be punished to deter others, only a few weeks ago a billionaire in China was declared missen by his company and the stocks of the company and his account was frozen, only for him to be released some days after, he'd been detained by the Chinese anti corruption agency and quized. That's where Nigeria need to be. Screw democracy if it provides evil doers the opportunity to vandalise our common wealth |

simpleseyi:........................permit me to say yes! including all oif them, even a hardened killer is still innocent until a competent court of law confirms him guilty, otherwise if the prosecutor cannot justy his case , he might still walk free! thats why there are laws, the pwers wielded by the so called EFCC and DSS are actually enacted by an act of law, so you cannot disregard the law. What are we even talking about in this country, that an accused is detained against his will , he (metuh) is even begging them to take him to court and they are going to some magistrate to get order to detain instead of prosecute? thats laughable, it is the height of impunity and should not be encouraged by sane minds like me and you because it can form a chain of ugly reactions. We are blessed{ |
