BREAKING: ICC Set To Investigate Patience Jonathan by Nobody: 7:59pm On Mar 16, 2015 |
The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Monday confirmed receiving correspondence from the All Progressives Congress (APC), against Patience Jonathan, the Nigerian first lady. TheCable had written to the Office of the Prosecutor (OTP) seeking clarification on reports that the court had formally received a petition against the first lady from APC. The response was that communication was received from APC and the petition would be given the necessary considerations within the ambits of the Nigeria. “Under Article 15 of the Rome Statute, the Prosecutor of the ICC may receive information on crimes within the jurisdiction on the Court (also called ‘communications’),” OTP said. “With regards to your enquiry, the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court can confirm receipt of the communication referred to since the sender of the communication has made this fact public in the media.” Earlier on Monday, the United Kingdom arm of the APC claimed that the criminal court said it would begin investigating the wife of the president. “The ICC based in the Hague has sent confirmation to APC UK, that an investigation will begin against Mrs Jonathan who repeatedly called for the stoning of opposition APC members as captured in the videos released earlier this month,” it said. “The criminal case investigation ICC reference number is: OTP-CR-83/15.” The OTP also told TheCable that it would consider the stance of the APC and treat the allegations as appropriate. “The Office will give consideration to this communication, as appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, as it does with all such communications.” In order to ensure a violence-free election, political parties signed a peace accord in January, promising to desist from all acts of violence, hate and inciting speeches. The APC however filed a complaint before the ICC against Mrs. Jonathan for her inciting speeches, having told Nigerians at a campaign in Cross River to stone anyone who comes to the state to preach “change” – the mantra of the APC. Fatou Bensouda, prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, released a statement on Monday threatening anyone fuelling violence ahead of the election would be prosecuted. “Any person who incites or engages in acts of violence in the context of the upcoming elections or otherwise – including by ordering, inciting, encouraging or contributing to the commission of crimes that fall within ICC’s jurisdiction – is liable to prosecution; either by Nigerian Courts or by the ICC,” the statement read. “No one should doubt my office’s resolve to prosecute individuals responsible for the commission of ICC crimes, whenever necessary.” www.thecable.ng/just-icc-set-investigate-patience-jonathan 1 Like |

This should be a lesson to politicians that they are accountable for their utterances and the effects it has on national cohesion and security. Madam Piss can be excused because she is barely educated, her husband should take responsibility for her actions. He should have cautioned her instead of accommodating her excesses. After Buhari's victory, APC should withdraw the petition so that she can take care of her step-children. Her husband will be busy in court answering to several corrupt and criminal cases . 1 Like |

Is patience a card carrying member of the PDP, this case can be easily resolved by expelling Patience and notifying the ICC that patience has been punished for her statements and the case is closed. I dont think this is a big issue, the opposition is trying to distract the PDP and make it look more and more of a party that does not play by the rules. It has nothing to do with patience but the reputation of pdp and their ability to honor simple agreements. I dont see this going anywhere in the ICC but in the international community - its a big blow to patience and the pdp . Bad move mama peace , nigeria is a part of an internatiional community and the same way , a mother would ensure that the secrets and weaknesses of her family and its members are concealed are the same way you should strive to echo in your speeches during rallies not as a enemy to the populace but a mother who does not take sides in any issue but strive to ensure peace and stability no matter who's favorite is gored. See Stella Obasanjo ! |

Why not finish with racism by Teaparty and English Defense League etc? How many changers are dead so far or have been attacked by Cross Riverians courtesy of PEJ standing order? How many Northerners have ICC invited for the 2011 electoral violence? They should've started with Asari Dokubo why not or even Sani Kaita |

This is just another distraction from the APC, what about the more serious statements by the APC, AMECHI'S parallel government and Buhari's blood of dogs and baboons. |
