e shock you,wait oo,you were not informed too

In someone's voice

BrodaBenad:
How long will he spend here?

Very good question

AndroBlaze:
There is no u-turn being done, no where does he say the President, representing the FG, cannot suspend a governor under a state of Emergency.

But I do agree with him on his final analysis, Tinubu should have waited for the House of Assembly to approve before swearing in the Sole Administrator.

No sensible person has argued that this thing he is doing can work without the National Assembly's approval and [b]it is now very likely he will fail to get it because of his haste [/b]and inability to carry everyone along in a complex country like this.

In Nigeria?
With this crop of Lawmakers?

I think they can't do otherwise

NgeneUkwenu:
Gov Fubara
1. Demolished the state House of Assembly
2. Presented Budget to 4 members out of 27,
3. Conducted LG elections against court order.
4. Removed traditional rulers
5. His boys are blowing up pipelines

Minister Wike
1.

Please tell me the unlawful thing Wike did??

Just relax.

The table will, one day, turn.

casualobserver:
They both commited the same offense. They were both wrong. The difference here is that Akpabio eventually realized he was wrong and apologized….Natasha still refuses to.

And that warrants a 6 month suspension?

helinues:
Even your husband is acting wayward lately

helinues, you are beginning to RELAPSE

Cutezt:
The question is, was he unruly and disruptive or not?

Was that not the same thing they suspended natasha for?

They refused to acknowledge her, she disrupted the proceedings, he too was not acknowledged, and he disrupted proceedings, so what exactly is the issue?

Don't mind the sentimental hypocrite

ruggedtimi:
then they had no tagged seats in the senate. In today's senate you could see the names of the senators boldly tagged on their various seats.

Stop defending nonsense!

helinues:
Even a councilor won't stoop so low like Bala

Bala bala

Won't stoop so low to trade words with Wike right?

Urheadmaster:
..

That space is for rent

But is there any hope for this country?

Law enforcement agents and those who are to uphold justice and defend the poor masses are involved in forgery just to arrest and detain a helpless citizen.

My heart bleeds

Amumaigwe:
This guy Inibehe Effiong is gradually stepping into the shoes of foremost human right lawyers like of Gani Fawehmi. At just 36 years, he will surely go very far . Very impressive guy

Thumbs up to him

Fujiyama:


The "reformer" always cites fuel subsidy removal as evidence of his courage, vision, determination, etc.

One would think a public briefing by his chief finance scribe to lawmakers would be the perfect opportunity to showcase the numbers to the world. After all, the numbers don't (or shouldn't) lie.

Instead, this is what we get.

This is what we get.

Nigeria is finished

By Sahara Reporters

The disciplinary action was prompted by a petition from Nigerian human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, submitted in August 2024 to the Honourable Chief Judge of Nasarawa State.

The Nasarawa State Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has approved the demotion and dismissal of Chief Magistrate Emmanuel A. Jatau, who previously served in Masaka, Nasarawa State.

Jatau has been downgraded from Chief Magistrate II (GL 15) to Senior Magistrate I (GL 14) and relieved of all magisterial duties.

Meanwhile, the decision followed a recommendation by the Committee for Appointments, Promotions, and Discipline (CAPD).

The disciplinary action was prompted by a petition from Nigerian human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, submitted in August 2024 to the Honourable Chief Judge of Nasarawa State.

Effiong accused Jatau of judicial misconduct, forgery, illegality, and abuse of power.

He stated that the Magistrate Court in Masaka issued fabricated documents which bore an official filing stamp from the Federal High Court (FHC) in Lagos, signed by a staff member of the FHC, Lagos, identified as M. Tofowomo-Adegbite (Mr.), and dated January 8, 2024.

According to Inibehe, the police did not attempt to secure a valid warrant of arrest or a warrant of commitment to prison on remand from any court in Lagos, where the defendant resides, or in Abuja, where the case was reported.

He said instead, they allegedly conspired with certain unscrupulous elements within the Nasarawa State Judiciary to fabricate documents falsely labelled as a warrant of arrest and a warrant of commitment to prison on remand.

The case involved Jatau's issuance of a Warrant of Arrest and Warrant of Commitment to Prison for one Okoli Udoka Chioma from Lagos to Nasarawa State.

Effiong argued that the alleged offences were not committed within Nasarawa State, nor did the defendant reside there, rendering the court's actions outside its jurisdiction.

In a letter released on Monday, Yahaya Yakubu Shafa, Executive Secretary of the Judicial Service Commission, confirmed the disciplinary actions against Jatau.

The statement read, "You would recall that following the receipt of your complaint against the Hon. Chief Magistrate, Masaka Nasarawa State, the committee for Appointments, Promotions and Discipline (CAPD) invited you to prove your allegations in the interest of fair hearing. Thereafter, the Committee deliberated and made recommendations to the Commission.

"At the regular meeting of the Nasarawa State Judicial Service Commission held on the 6th December 2024, the findings and recommendations made by the committee was approved.

"Consequently, I have been directed by the Hon. Chief Judge of Nasarawa State and Chairman Judicial Service Commission to write and inform you that Hon. Emmanuel A. Jatau has been demoted by a grade level lower than his current grade level i.e from Chief Magistrate II on GL 15 to Senior Magistrate I on GL 14 and stripped of his magisterial duties," Shafa added.

On May 2024, SaharaReporters reported that a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja ordered Chioma Okoli to be remanded at the Suleja Correctional Centre over the review of Tomato products made by Erisco Foods Limited on Facebook.

Chioma Okoli was arraigned on Tuesday, May 28, 2024 at the Federal High Court in Abuja before Hon. Justice Peter Lifu.

Okoli pleaded not guilty to the two counts of conspiracy and cyberstalking levelled against her.

She was remanded in Suleja Correctional Centre till Friday 31st May, 2024 for ruling on her bail application.

Human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, along with S. M Oyeghe appeared for Chioma while Abdulrashid Isyaku-Sidi appeared for the Inspector General of Police.

Okoli’s lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, told the court that his client suffered miscarriage in the course of the case and eventually lost her baby.

Recall that the CEO of Erisco Foods, Eric Umeofia, had alleged in 2023 that a negative product review by a customer, Chioma Egodi, negatively impacted his business when she claimed that the Nagiko Tomota Mix she bought had too much sugar.

Okoli was eventually arrested by the police in September 2023 with her lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, raising alarm that the fundamental right of his client was being breached by the police and Umeofia.

Meanwhile, in August 2024, Inibehe Effiong, the lawyer representing Okoli Chioma petitioned the Nasarawa State Judicial Service Commission, over forged documents used by the police in a suit pending before the Federal High Court in Lagos (Suit No: FHC/L/CS/2164/2023).

The case, titled MRS. CHIOMA EDOKA OKOLI v. ERISCO FOODS LIMITED & 6 ORS, includes an application by the *Applicant* against the Nigeria Police Force and others for the enforcement of her fundamental rights.

rapheal5:
I'm sorry for Nigeria...

Truly really sorry!

Urheadmaster:




What are they hiding? My anger is, we have LP, PDP and other lawmakers who are not APC, but yet the will agree and conceal the details because they are one.

Yes they're one.

And one thing hold them together - money

coolcharm:
we sweep a lot of things under the carpet in this country. This is a case of accountability, and this is the best we get. Here’s where Opposition and Civil society organizations need to press and apply pressure, but nah, they’re in bed with the system.

How did we even get here?

Why give details in a closed-door session

coolcharm:
Why should a sensitive issue like this it be discussed or defended behind closed doors? Don’t we all deserve to know the details? Or… they are afraid of shit hitting the celling fan? 🤣

You know the deal

You see them?

temisartana:
Lolzzz, the man is just shameless, I swear.

Just for us to know the kind of country we are today.

It's truly really pathetic!

What a shame.

Anyway, I don't blame him. Our President, the first citizen of the country just took 3rd position out of

Ganduje too dey follow talk

yarimo:
Everyone just activating milk bottom on mumu FUBARA just to get something from him in the name of support against WIKE 😅😅😅

That's the problem with your type. Zero integrity. No rational thinking.

Wike will soon get to you and your group

Peakdesign23:
Wike is stubborn for real. Will he apologize?

That's his problem.

But posterity will judge him fairly.

I am speechless

helinues:
Story for the wailers to feed on.
No bad news again about Nigeria

But how do you feel about this?

Salewa97:
Wike, the bulldozer.

The man is unstoppable

Yeah. Not even Tinubu can stop him when he finally comes for him.

sapele914:
Penury has taken control of your life, which has caused your mind to become disillusioned.

You may be poor until you are 6 feet under, if you are not cleansed o.

Sorry, I don't normally respond to your type.

Maxymilliano:
At least he won this one truthfully.

No rigging

It seems so but I think they actually 'rigged' him out of his true position.

yarimo:
TIMI FRANK trying very hard to get Media attention

Can you sincerely refute any thing he said?

Don't worry. You, the Yorubas and Tinubu will soon learn the hard way
