President Buhari Should Stop Mocking Democracy With ‘ojuju Calabar Trial’ by presharthur(m): 7:36pm On Feb 21, 2016
In Nigeria, Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele
Fayose, has described attempt by the
Nigeria Federal Government to secretly try
the leader of the Indigenous Peoples of
Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu, by using mask-
wearing prosecution witnesses as a mockery
of democracy, saying Nigerians must
force President Muhammadu Buhari
{ Nigeria } to purge himself of the blood and
water of dictatorship flowing in his veins
down to his heart.
Governor Fayose was in red eye seeing how
president Buhari rule Nigeria, Threatened
People with his Ojuju Calaber…. This is
unfair to me
In a release issued on Saturday by his
Special Assistant on Public Communications
and New Media, Mrs Lere Olayinka, In ekiti
State Governor Fayose said that “it is
shameful and insultive that the Federal
Government could approachthe court for
witnesses in a criminal matter it is
prosecuting to wear mask and be seen
through screen and live.”
He said even the prosecuting counsel, who
filed the application should be ashamed of
themselves for making themselves available
to be used as tools to subvert democracy
from Nigeria.
“They want Kanu tried secretly. They also
want the former National Security Adviser
(NSA), Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd) tried secretly.
What are they afraid of?
Still On speech: How can the Federal
Government asked the court to allow ‘ojuju
calabar’ (masquerade) as prosecution
witnesses when we are not under military
rule?
“How would such witnesses be cross-
examined by defence lawyers and can their
real identity be ascertained?
“Should anyone make allegations that he
cannot be bold enough to defend in the law
court? Why are the witnesses afraid to
testify in an open court if truly they are
witnesses of truth?
“Clearly, this is mockery of democracy and
the rule of law and Nigerians should know
that it is their duty to purge President Buhari
of dictatorship,” Governor Fayose said.
While hailing the judiciary for once again
rising in the defence of democracy by saying
no to the anti-democratic plot of using
masquerade as witnesses, Governor Fayose
said; “As it is now, only the judiciary can
save Nigeria from the full-blown dictatorship
that this Buhari-led APC governmenthas
become.
“Interestingly, they are not even sparing the
bench from their regime of blackmail and
dictatorship, and it has become necessary
for our men of the bench to continue to
stand firm against enemies of democracy
and rule of law.”
