'DSS Will Hunt You Next' - Mike Ozekhome Tells Journalists by Jalapa01(m): 5:21pm On Oct 09, 2016 |
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Mike Ozekhome has predicted that the Department of State Services (DSS) will clampdown on the media soon. This was in reaction to the arrest of some judges by the DSS on Saturday, October 8, 2016. Mr Ozekhome is not the first to speak on the issue. In fact, a cross section of lawyers have condemned the action of the security agency, describing it as a way of intimidating the judiciary. Speaking further on the DSS actions, Ozekhome also said “I am not surprised. I am rather surprised that some Nigerians are still surprised. Some of us warned, wrote, preached and talked. But, we were ignored due to political partisanship. A leopard cannot change its spots. It started with political opponents and the opposition. Some of us cried out. Then, they moved against some very senior and well-respected lawyers. Some clapped. “They said it was anti-corruption. We cried out. It extended quickly to the National Assembly, another arm of government. Many described the government as tough, no-nonsense and anti-corruption-inclined. Some of us warned. Now, it is the judiciary. Up to the very apex court of the land, the Supreme Court, has been targeted and is now being intimidated and humiliated. “Virtually all the judges are southerners. My prediction is that the media will be the next. The recent onslaught against the judiciary signals great danger to our democracy, freedom, human rights, independence of the judiciary and the doctrine of separation of powers as espoused in 1748 by the great French philosopher, Baron De Montesquieu. “We are supposed to be operating a constitutional democracy, not military dictatorship or tyrannical absolutism. Governor Wike was almost shot dead by fully armed DSS operatives. His “offence” was that he came to rescue a Federal High Court judge who was being abducted. Other serving judges, who would ordinarily respond to a mere phone call, are being humiliated and rounded up in the ungodly hours of the night, like common criminals.” Governor Nyesom Wike was reportedly harassed while trying to stop DSS operatives from arresting a Federal High Court judge in Rivers state.

arabbunkum: You are the one who is sick mentally ooo. You need mental check up. How would you agree that the judiciary is corrupt and at the same time you are opposed to efforts at weeding out the corrupt officials in the same judiciary. You need mental check up. Please Buhari, carry go... WE voted for you simply because of this. Please ensure those judges are remanded to Kuje prison tomorrow for at least 4 weeks before the hearing of their case begins. China is fighting corruption and they have shown their seriousness again by sentencing a PM to death today. What's wrong with us? 2 Likes |

See don't let us pretend that our judges aren't corrupt in Nigeria. I don't understand why people are saying judges can't be arrested for corruption because there are simply judges. And people are saying DSS shouldn't arrest people in the midnight simply becos it's an ungodly hour.. My question to you is that if armed robbers are in your neighborhood in the midnight and you put a call to the police and their reply is that it's an ungodly Hour that they can't come. I hate it when corrupt people hide under due process or rule of law. The reason why the poor goes to prison is because the poor don't have money to buy these judges while the likes of wike can afford them. Please don't let us pretend our judiciary are full of saints please. Every states has corrupt judges.. This will serve as a lesson to others that they can be touched regardless of their position as judges. Don't bother to quote me if you are stupid 2 Likes |

ikaboy:Buhari is" fighting corruption" and we are suffering , but Jonathan was corrupt and we were okay. Who needs medical attention between the two of you ? Keep living in a fools paradise. Meanwhile nobody is against corruption but follow due process just like civilised countries. We are not animals except you claim to be one. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I'm eagerly waiting for the moment DSS start arresting some Nairalanders for their epic daftness. If you're not a corrupt judge, you have nothing to be scared of. If you're not a corrupt journalist, you have nothing to be scared of. I wasn't invited when the Judges were collecting cash for judgment so I'm not bothered about what happens to them. |
