Mohammed Yunusa Dismissed By NJC Over Injunction Stopping EFCC From Probing Odua by masterpiece86(op): 1:36pm On Jul 16, 2016
The Nigeria Judicial Council (NJC) has reportedly dismissed Justice Mohammed Yunusa for granting an injunction stopping the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) from probing Stella Oduah.

Although there were no details of the dismissal as at press time, Sahara Reporters’s post on Twitter confirmed the dismissal of the Federal High Court judge.

Check out the post below:


Recall that the senator representing Anambra North Senatorial District has said she would take up legal action against online media, Sahara Reporters.

In a statement by Francisca Onyeisi, the former minister’s head of communications, Oduah said a planned court action has become necessary following Sahara Reporters’s malicious allegations against her.


In its recent report, the online media alleged that the former minister carried out some fraudulent oil deals during her tenure as the minister of aviation in Nigeria.

It would also be recalled that investigators at the EFCC were of the view that the bank account was opened by Stella Oduah, who used her housemaid as the account owner in order to prevent anybody from knowing she was the real owner of the allegedly stolen N2.5 billion.

New information coming in has it that two senior EFCC sources explained that the bank account and its huge deposits was opened and operated without the knowledge of the former minister’s housemaid, saying: “Senator Oduah apparently opened the account with her housemaid’s name, image, and details without the housemaid knowing about it.”

The NJC has also dismissed an Osun state judge, Olamide Oloyede, for writing a petition to the House of Assembly against the state governor, Rauf Aregbesola.

It's the same APC judiciary that refused to dismiss the PDP governors in Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Taraba states.

@Topic: What happens to the judge that gave the judgment with gave Odili perpetual injunction preventing the EFCC from prosecuting him.

This is the same Judge who was collecting bribe from Rickey Tarfa (SAN), to tilt judgement against a Nigerian woman in favour of the Beninoise defendant. He claimed the money was support from Tarfa for his father in-law's funeral.

He had also been accused of running a judicial scam with other prominent lawyers who ensure their cases get assigned to him to achieve a pre-determined outcome for their clients

He was the one used by Stella Oduah to get a perpetual injunction against investigation on corruption.

The fight against corruption continues to sweep away criminals.

I just hope the bribe collected by this Judge is enough to last him for a lifetime cos a dismissed Judge is the most worthless form of legal practitioner you can have.

Yeah, once you are not APC, you not on the side of APC, then you are corrupt and incompetent. Court injunctions disobeyed, clearly corrupt APC officials not invited in for questioning, etc., etc., etc. Change is truly here!
