Politics › Re: Saraki's Trial: “we Have No Details To Sustain Charge 11” Says EFCC Witness by Smooth278(m): 10:45pm On May 19, 2016 |
freeze001: You see, in a democracy imperfect as ours is, justice must be done and seen to be done. The provisions of the law are clear.
For stopping the trial: 1. The issue he raised was jurisdiction of the tribunal as to constitution of the panel. The CCB Act says 3 judges constitute a panel. The intention of the law for providing an odd number even in the appellate courts is so that in the event of dissenting judgements, there will always be a majority which becomes the binding judgment. However, the law also says 2 judges can for a quorum and on the basis of this, his appeal was quashed at the Supreme Court. He had the right of appeal which he rightly exercised.
2. Another issue raised was the condition precedent set by the tribunal with Tinubu which is also a set down precedent in the Act that the declarant must be informed and his statement or clarification to issues raised by the CCB must be received in writing by the CCB. Where the CCB is satisfied by the clarification of any issues raised, there will be no need to proceed to the tribunal but where it is not satisfied, it can approach the tribunal and that written statement by the declarant is one of the mandatory documents with which to institute an action at the tribunal and which vests it with the jurisdiction to entertain the matter.
This was not complied with in Tinubu's case on the basis of which the tribunal chairman dismissed the charges against Tinubu. The same situation played out in Saraki's case as he wasn't informed nor given the opportunity to respond as statutorily required before he was served with notice to appear before the tribunal.
Again he had the right to rely on the precedent set by the tribunal and the extant provisions of the law. The same chairman that ruled on Tinubu's case chose to overrule himself rather than comply with the law and its own precedent. Legally the tribunal has no power to act as an appellate court unto itself and can no longer rule on a previous judgment because it is functus officio. Still that has been done and the matter continues.
3. Asking the chairman to recuse himself on grounds of bias: In law, even the slightest whiff of bias established by a defendant against a judge allows issues to be resolved in his favor upon appeal. The possibility of and actual bias is frowned upon very strongly. Saraki rightly pointed out the possible bias of the tribunal due to his pending issues with EFCC, the same EFCC which is testifying against Saraki.
My point with the above is that with an independent judiciary, all these issues raised on appeal can overturn the decision of the tribunal upon appeal. It would then be on apparently technical grounds to those who don't understand these things because jurisdiction is fundamental. If that happens, u all will still say the judiciary is the problem!
The FG has not done it's job well because it doesn't seek justice but political vendetta and equity will not be used as a cloak for fraud. A defendant has every right to explore every legal avenue for justice, it must not be interpreted as an admission of guilt or an attempt to evade justice.
The law simply requires that he who comes to equity must come with clean hands and the Prosecution must always be mindful so its actions do not amount to a nullity. Excellent points... Legal guru in the house!!! |

gidgiddy: Oh really? No to Biafra but yes Lord Lugards Nigeria? Nigeria only makes sense if we all agree to it. After all, none of us became Nigerians out of free will. We became Nigerians because the British forced us to. We can't carry on the enforcement even now, long after the British have gone home. It is our right to decide what we want. If there are any people who feel that Nigeria is not working out for them, they should be allowed to go. When Scotland said they want their own country, did you see anyone shouting "we must be one!"?. Britain gave them referendum, the same Britain that created Nigeria. My brother, yes I agree with some of what you have said but I think these things will be achieved a lot easier if true federalism is put in place.... People want Biafra so as to enjoy better dividends of good leadership and to avoid oppression so if there is true federalism I think a lot of issues will be solved... There's unity in diversity... |

Politics › Current State Of Nigeria... Was Nnamdi Kanu A Prophet!!! by Smooth278(op): 4:08am On May 12, 2016 |
Just saw this on a post on facebook and seriously wondering if this man is a prophet....
As they campaign vigorously for elections, you would think, they are coming to grow the economy, enthrone justice, breed unity and tolerance, love for one another. No, they are coming to enthrone Hausa Fulani supremacy, to reposition the security agencies by sacking all competent hands and replace them with their kinsmen in order to drive their ethnic domination of the south, the Fulani herdsmen will be armed and encouraged to slaughter us with impurity and their masters will protect them. They are coming to ensure that my people are enslaved forever. Those who do not believe me will soon see it happen before their eyes” # NnamdiKanu, 6th Feb. 2014 “The Fulani will take over the entire south as a continuation of their age old agenda to Islamize Eastern Nigeria. They will brazenly seize our land in pretence of creating crazing fields for the Fulani. Then the conquest will be complete, we will become their serfs forever” #Nnamdi Kanu, 12 Oct 2014 “Between Jonathan and Buhari, none is good for us. Freedom remains our only option, Jonathan is weak and confused, Buhari is a bloody thirsty tyrant, who will destroy the land with his parochial view point. His kinsmen will take over the military and the security architecture of the land. Christians and Easterners will become endangered species; He will use the security apparatus to advance the agenda of his ethnic group. My people will suffer” #Nnamdi Kanu, 6th Nov 2014 “Then a group deadlier than Boko Haram will emerge, they will seize our farmland, rape our women, kill our people and their master will protect, defend and even arm them, because their sole agenda is to enslave us forever. Those who cannot see it now, will soon see it. The hatred in their souls for my people is legendary. They do not see us as humans. They kill, they slaughter, they burn and they destroy. Mindless bloodletting is in their DNA. My people are in trouble” #Nnamdi Kanu, 2nd Dec. 2014 “Unity flows with love and mutual respect. This artificial unity with people who see you as an infidel and unbeliever is fake and dangerous. We are better off on our own. They kill with impunity, yet they say we must stay together. They have only one agenda, to chase away Jonathan and enslave us forever. They are coming with vengeance, anger and revenge for the years they stayed out of power. They plan to intimidate, silence and enslave us. Their world view is so strange and different from ours, we are in big trouble” #Nnamdi Kanu, 16th Jan 2015 “All we ever wanted is freedom to realize our full potentials in the space of land God Almighty placed us in this planet, but there is persons whose agenda is to intimidate and dominate others. They hate freedom, justice and fair play. They enslaved Northerners for centuries, they want to extend and replicate this dominating culture down South. They use terror as a weapon of intimidation, they have no regard for non-Muslims, they hate us with passion, yet they won’t let my people go. Their only desire is to dominate and oppress others, once they are out of power; they immediately resort to either Pogroms (1966) Sharia law introduction (2000/2001) or Boko Haram (2011). They are enemies of peaceful co-existence. We want freedom, we respect justice and equity, and above all, we respect the sanctity of human live. These people do not; they use terror to intimidate and subdue in order to rule over everybody else” #Nnamdi Kanu, 15th March 2015 |
