Abeg keep quiet, when he's collecting millions as salary and sharing trader moni, deceiving people to believe in a known, incompetent buffoon he didn't ask for pity.
Shove that rubbish talk up ya ass mate. The cowardly disgrace is living large with his family you're here typing trash in his defence.

Lol... Rants of a frustrated fellow..
I have my sources... I know it's not the best of times for the VP.. What he's passing through is unimaginable... His resignation is only a win for his detractors..

Dragging a drowning man into this.. Is an over kill

Let's stop being sentimental. Has Swore himself apologise to Nigerians or Good luck Jonathan for all the lies that he told us thru his Sahara Reporters? It takes a lot of courage to do so but that is the mark of a gentleman. I rest my case for now. Meanwhile you are poor if you don't have land.

People can be so forgetful or maybe they are doing this out of hatred they have for the vice president. I remember when he was acting as the president, he directed the service chiefs to relocate to Maiduguri, Borno state. The following day, Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai and Chief of Air Staff, Sadique Abubakar relocated to Borno to restore normalcy to the area......Is this man really deserves all this hatred from some set of miscreants across the country ? No, God will continue to vindicate/protect him (Amen)

Falana the political lawyer, a man who speaks from both sides of his mouth.
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by Wada3: 11:15am On Dec 07, 2019
I think it is so unfortunate that Barister Femi Falana allowed himself to be misled into making this statement. Was he not in this country when Professor Yemi Osinbajo was the Acting President, when Lawal Daura, the then DG SSS was sacked for impunity? Well, many well meaning Nigerians are fully conversant with the governance in the country
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by TheRareGem1(f): 11:20am On Dec 07, 2019
Falana has seen that he has lost this sowore's case. He just want to drag some people who have nothing to do with the case to the mud. You don't take knive to a gun fight.
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by Oladelesp: 11:32am On Dec 07, 2019
Let me remind you that As acting President, Prof. Osinbajo on 7 August 2018, Osinbajo fired the State Security Service boss, Lawal Daura for illegal invasion of National Assembly by armed and masked operatives of the department.
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by Temmy1997(f): 11:35am On Dec 07, 2019
We Nigerians must learn how to channel our misgivings and grievances through the right channels. Osinbajo is a Prof of Law and a SAN does not make him a judge or the DSS DG, Nigerians should note this.

So why should him and other lawyers be disciplined for what.

These talks are so laughable. Is Osinbajo the AGF? Is he the prosecutor or the DSS boss? This is just comical at most

I hope Falana knows the difference between commander in chief and other subordinates.

Despite being a Senior Advocate, Osinbajo can't take the duty of the Attorney General nor the commander in Chief
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by TeeMoney99: 11:49am On Dec 07, 2019
If you ask me this is highly unnecessary. Everyone knows about the Vice President's stand on lawlessness. The last time DSS misbehaved. Daura was sacked ASAP by the Acting President.

Ordinarily buhari a crude military dictator cannot outlive a democratic govt guided by the rule of law except there are sell outs and deceitful beings such as osibanjo, Keyamo and Co who pretend to be good people.

They have provided him the skills to overcome the norms of the judiciary thereby aiding him in raping democracy and destroying the rule of law but judgement awaits them.

We hear him and his sycophants say he will take over from buhari but that will only happen if God stops to exist.

Ade Adesomoju, Abuja

Human rights lawyer, Mr Femi Falana (SAN), who leads Mr Omoyele Sowore’s defence team, has asked the Nigerian Bar Association to take disciplinary actions against lawyers in President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet over what he described as desecration of the court with Sowore’s rearrest at the Federal High Court in Abuja, causing a disruption of court proceedings.

He said his legal team would meet on Saturday to determine the next line of action.

He said there were 10 lawyers with four of them Senior Advocates of Nigeria, who ought to live up to their oath to defend the Constitution and other laws of the country, by ensuring that the rule of law was observed by the government.

The SANs in the cabinet are Vice President Yemi Osinbajon (SAN), Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami; Minister of State for Labour, Mr Festus Keyamo; and Minister of Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola.

He said, “Even though President Muhammadu Buhari has a duty to caution the Department of State Services, the blame of the desecration of the court today (Friday) rests squarely on lawyers in government, who are under a duty to ensure that the rule of law is observed.

The SANs in the cabinet are Vice President Yemi Osinbajon (SAN), Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami; Minister of State for Labour, Mr Festus Keyamo; and Minister of Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola.

He said, “Even though President Muhammadu Buhari has a duty to caution the Department of State Services, the blame of the desecration of the court today (Friday) rests squarely on lawyers in government, who are under a duty to ensure that the rule of law is observed.

“They have all taken the oath to respect the Constitution and other laws of the country. That Constitution guarantees the independence and impartiality of the courts.

“They therefore cannot sit in a cabinet under a regime that terrorises the courts and subverts the rule of law.

“It is a matter the Nigerian Bar Association should take up against the lawyers in the cabinet by instituting disciplinary proceedings against them.”

Faulting the arrest of his client, he described it as contemptuous.

He also noted that it was not backed by any arrest warrant or detention order of court.

He said, “There is no warrant of arrest, there is no detention order. What the DSS did today was the height of contempt of court.

“Nobody is above the law. You either abolish the courts or allow them to function effectively.

“This is a situation where the DSS operatives invaded the court and forced the judge to adjourn proceedings; they chased the judge out of her court, disrupted the proceedings and forced the judge to adjourn all cases.

“These are manifestations of fascism, which cannot be accepted in any civilised society. This has never happened in Nigeria where you take over a court forcefully in order to arrest an unarmed citizen.

“You remember that it was the illegal invasion of the National Assembly by masked DSS men that led to the dismissal of the former DG, DSS, by this government.

“So for the same barbaric conduct to occur again is unacceptable. This is a regime that parades 10 senior lawyers, including four Senior Advocates of Nigeria.”

Asked if he had been informed of any reason why his client was rearrested or whether he was going to be freshly, he said “no”

The whole blame should actually go to u and others that deliberating packaged a well known unrepentant terrorist and dictator to gullible nigerians to elect as their president. We can forgive all those who were'nt born befor buhari became a military head of state in 1983 but not all those who witnessed all his brutality yet vigorously campaigned for him due to their tribal, religous and economic personal interests?
Re: Sowore: Falana Tells NBA To Discipline Osinbajo, Other Lawyers In Cabinet by Atejila1: 12:36pm On Dec 07, 2019
Wait ooo is the Vice President the judge over the guys case or what? Sowore flaunted the conditions give to him and you all expect the Vice President to say or do what? Please you should allow the man to have peace.

Nigerians are largely uneducated, walahi...

DSS rearrests Sowore and you are insulting Osinbajo, for what?

Is he DSS DG? Is he DSS spokesman?

Have you heard Mike Pence speak against the actions or inactions of FBI or CIA?

Why are we so ignorant? Does DSS answer to him?��‍♂️��‍♂️��‍♂️
