Cross River: Magistrates Rage Over 16 Months Pay - https://aljazirahnews.com/cross-river-magistrates-rage-over-16-months-pay/ This issue ais gaining more attention. |
NON PAYMENT OF MAGISTRATES EMPLOYED IN CROSS RIVER STATE SINCE FEBRUARY, 2019. On 1st February 2019 a total of 46 new Magistrates were duly appointed and sworn into office by the then Chief Judge of Cross River State, Hon. Justice Michael Edem (now retired). The appointment followed due process involving thorough screening, interview, and necessary documentation exercises conducted by the State Judicial Service Commission, being the body statutorily empowered to employ and exercise disciplinary control over judicial officers of the magistracy cadre in Cross River State. Since then all the Magistrates have undergone necessary professional training including a two months attachment to courts and a mandatory induction course at the National Judicial Institute (NJI), Abuja. Also, magistrates have since been posted/assigned to various Magistrate Courts across the State where they are still working and discharging their responsibilities till date, yet none of them has been paid! According to insider information, the reason for the non payment is because the appointment allegedly exceeded the number authorised by the governor. (But how exactly is that the fault of those employed/engaged?). It is important to note though parenthetically that the JSC is created under section 202 of the 1999 Constitution and also its independence is statutorily guaranteed. Therefore, in exercising its power to appoint Magistrates and exercise disciplinary control over them, the JSC is not subject to control by any other authority or person including the governor. With reference to Section 9 of the Judicial Service Commission Law, Cap J2 Vol.3 Laws of Cross River State of Nigeria 2004. Another twist is that out of the total of 46 new Magistrates, only about 30 are fresh appointments, the rest were already civil servants whose names were already on the payroll but merely transferred their services to the Judiciary as Magistrates, (my source said this is very much allowed and has always been done in the past, this is not the first time). In April 2020, the State Judicial Service Commission in a bid to pander to the yearning of His Excellency conducted a screening exercise where they attempted to reduce the number of the new Magistrates to 19 and further recommended the return of all those on transfer back to the various MDAs where they came from. Yet the governor has refused to pay even one person till date. In September, 2019 the governor acting on advice of his SA Payroll, Mr. John Odey (who has now been compensated with appointment as auditor general), illegally, unjustifiably and unceremoniously removed the names of over 2,000 civil servants from government payroll. According to John Odey, the removal was to enable the governor authenticate the process of employment of the affected staff and restore only those who were genuinely employed. The governor has refused to call for the so called verification exercise till date. Those removed from the payroll include about 40 law officers (State Counsel) from the Ministry of Justice and some of the Magistrates appointed under the category of transfer of service. Note that these are staff who were properly employed in 2016, issued with letters of appointments and after two years of satisfactory and meritorious service they were further issued with letters of confirmation of appointments, only for their salaries to be stopped unceremoniously without any established case of misconduct neither are they issued with disengagement letters. A group of six Magistrates among those whose names were removed from the payroll have since filed a case at the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, Calabar Division in Suit No. NICN/CA/46/2019 where they are challenging the wrongful and illegal removal of their names from government payroll. About 33 law officers from the Ministry of Justice are also in Court challenging the wrongful removal of their names from the payroll. It has become imperative and pertinent to draw His Excellency, Governor Ben Ayade attention to the deprecating economic survival of these cross riverians, Just last week, a Magistrate was dragged by his landlord before another Magistrate for inability to renew his rent! May I also draw the attention of His Excellency to his promises in 2015/2019 campaigns that "He will not sleep if a cross riverians is not sleeping and he'll not eat if a cross riverian is hungry." Your Excellency Sir, the survival of these people and many other category of persons who have not been paid their salaries, pension, gratuity, etc, is being threatened daily. While you're trying your best to put food on the table of many cross riverians through appointments, do not take away food from the table of civil servants. As these will translate to "rubbing Ayade to pay Frank". Your Excellency Sir, imagine the impact or consequential effect of this issue on justice delivery and general justice administration in the Cross River State. Please act appropriately! "A stitch in time, they say, saves nine!" Chief Ifere Paul is a good governance advocate. He writes from Abuja. |

The viral news of an unnamed Magistrate in Cross River State who was arraigned before his colleague for non-payment of house rent had not gone to bed as more details are spunning up in the state. Cross River Watch had taken steps to look into pending issues and such has revealed that 29 Magistrates duly recruited in the State have not been paid their 18 months salaries, despite been subjected to training at various courts and at the National Judicial Instititute, Abuja. It may not have been unconnected with the tussle between the State Governor Ben Ayade and the Judiciary as per who heads the Courts as the substantive CJ. Believe me, this has caused undue hardship to those duly recruited and currently manning their various courts. They dispense justice, they have given judgments, convicted culprits, and do all what other Magistrates can do. They are however exposed to corruption as lawyers seem to take advantage of thier unpaid status and thereby entice them with envelops to obtain judgements in thier favours. Read details on Cross River Judiciary: 29 Magistrates Cries Over 18 Month Salary As Governor Ayade Copes With CJ Crisis, Two Suits By 22 State Counsels This is coming at a time the Cross River State Government has been in locked-in battle over its modus operandi and vivendi in the judiciary.

https://www.facebook.com/100010970296300/posts/1091268291248837/?d=n Amidst the covid-19, lots of waters have run beneath the floor. This is a typical example of man's inhumanity, nay insanity towards man. That is someone's father, husband, brother and uncle. Today it is he. Tomorrow, who knows? Who cares... but we should! |
And this man has not paid about 29 Magistrates dispensing justice in their respective districts in the state. This has been on for over 1 year since their appointment. Those Magistrates liberal at the mercies of litigants who have cases decided in their favour and which may come to appreciate. Believe me that such acts are illegal just as well as bribe. How do you expect unpaid dedicated workers who have been prevented from carrying on their legal practice by virtue of their appointment not to accept bribe or gratification? I know that this may be termed 'hate speech' by those that hate the truth. When the press speak, oppression and persecution follows. The judiciary is gagged in and legislators cowed in to acclaimed democracy! #freedomofpress #judiciaryindependence #quoteletssaythetruth |
How many of us can remember that old 1990 blues 'it must have been love... but it's over now...'? Well, the singer left this world on the 9th of Dec 2019 after battling cancer for over a decade. Read details as published below https://thenationonlineng.net/it-must-have-been-love-roxette-singer-dies-at-61/ It must have been love for music that she suffered to be alive but it is indeed over now.

When will fake news cease? Sadly, people spread it like wild fire during that harmattan. No one verifies. They keep forwarding... Last week, the news went on an wild that Wike demolished a mosque housing thousands of worshippers. Even though the governor denied it, some persons called him names and accused him of rights violation. I am pretty sure that a some churches would have faced some attacks in the North. Who knows what would have triggered the murder cum lynching of that Rev Fr? Well, no mosque was demolished. The pictures shared were fake. No news media house verified. All were in a haste to publish. Read for yourselves below please. I am leaving Nigeria to my village jare. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2019/09/sorry-mosque-demolition-in-rivers-is-fake-news/ Romour mongers pls spread this to correct our ills. |

Why is it that when you are in an active relationship you often meet lots of the opposite sex that are interested in you, but once you have serious issues that seem irretrievable and you give it a quit, you see none anymore ![]() ![]() ? � � � � ![]() |
I don't really know how you take it, but all I care nowadays make up does not make up relationships. It rather distances affection. Take it or leave it, ladies make up to look nice. It is usually that little powder on the face to dry off the facial oil, thereafter is a follow up of that dark eye pencil on the brows and lids. Then is that light lipstick or lips gloss with sometimes using the eye pencil to highlight the lips. What a glamour. I love my mum on those. One could easily hug, peck and kiss. That was then. Nowadays we talk about foundation, nude lips and blah blah blah. You could rarely recognize that beautified lady you went out with and perhaps held her hand when it was raining. She's so washed that even her natural beauty is modified to the opposite. There stands your masquerade! She makes up and looks so beautiful but you can't hug, peck or kiss less you spoil her beauty. How does it strengthen your relationship. You have food but cannot eat. No wonder Shakespeare of lasting memory said beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. What is beauty of you to me if I can't hold you affectionately? What more can I explain of yours when each time we hug we separate with a frown. You frowning that I've wiped off your apparels and me that you have rubber stamped my attires? Tell me how it has helped. Please ladies, let me read your views. The men are not excepted. Just a thought. #Oluwa Seun #lalasticlala |
