Jeffrey From USA Blast Nigerian Bar Association Over Illegal Detention Of Kanu by scachy(m): 9:11pm On Dec 23, 2015 |
Following the international awareness and sympathy created by the illegal detention of the leader of IPOB and the subsequent disobedience of court orders by Nigerian DSS. International figures are now wading into what is perceived as deliberate effort to nail down an innocent man. It also appears that neglect of Nigerian constitution seems not to bother Nigerian bar association eventhough it poses threat to the country and also an act of contempt to the court and bar. He questioned the sanity of disobeying court orders and going back to the same court to seek redress and urged judiciary to dismiss further charges against Nnamdi Kanu until the initial order of two competent courts are obeyed. He however frayed the Nigerian press for ignorance or negligence over their reportage on Nnamdi Kanu, in his words " There is a mistake in the articles concerning Nnamdi Kanu due to negligence or ignorance, the high court released #NnamdiKanu unconditionally, so you (nigerian press) should have written that he was released unconditionally and not granted bail unconditionally, in law, these are all different issues, more so, he was totally absolved from all allegations and therefore there was the concept "Res Judicata" a matter that has been adjudicated by a competent court and may not be pursued further by the same parties, the DSS should have complied to the order of the court by releasing #NnamdiKanu unconditionally before proceeding to the appeal court if they were not satisfied with the ruling of the lower court and should have prayed the appeal court to admit fresh charges if they deem it fit. It is rather appalling that the institution of government who does not obey an order of the court, is still going to the court whom they treat with contempt to seek redress, this of course has a damaging effect on both the bar and the bench, it is therefore trite to urge the judiciary to dismiss any further charges brought by the DSS to any court in Nigeria, with regards to this same issue hence respect for the law and court. I also want to call on Nigeria Bar association to rise to the occasion and condemn the actions of the DSS, and to be also followed by the National judicial council of Nigeria in the same condemnation. No system shall function effectively without total commitment to the rule of law and obedience to the decisions of the court of law. Thanks, Jeffrey Langley... Anchorage Alaska USA"" as no government is viable without rule of law, the image of Nigeria before the world is still unclear. http://www.thebiafraherald.co/2015/12/jeffrey-from-usa-blast-nigerian-bar.html?utm_source=&utm_medium=facebook&m=1
