Legal Set-back To Nnamdi Kanu/ipob In Abuja, A Big Blow To Biafra Struggle! by oladeebo: 9:56pm On Sep 05, 2017
The Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday granted the request seeking to serve court processes on Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) through substituted service.


The court, however, ordered that other respondents in the matter, namely: the Inspector-General of Police, the Commandant General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and the Attorney-General of the Federation be served personally.

Substituted Service Definition:
A method of delivery of a court document on a person other than in-person and generally subject to pre-authorization by the Court.

"Where for any reason it is impracticable to (personally) serve a document ..., the court may order substituted service, whether or not there is evidence that the document will probably reach the person to be served or will probably come to the person's attention or that the person is evading service.

"Substituted service of a document is effected by taking the steps that the court has ordered to bring the document to the attention of the person to be served."

This simply means that Nnamdi Kanu & ipob had taken their struggle too far beyond the legal reach!
And this will cost the Biafra struggle dearly!

Usually, an application for an order allowing substituted service will set out that the person is evading service or that it would be impossible to personally serve the Court document.

Keep deceiving ignorant and gullible minds.

Courts adopt all methods necessary for notice dependent on prevailing circumstances.

So how is it a blow to the IPOB struggle. The notice to Kanu can be served to his lawyers if they are his established counsel in any existing case and their office is in Abuja here.

Kanu will be in Abuja as his case opens this month.

Can you now stop masturbatin and deceiving people

Another method of substituted service is "service by publication" also called "constructive service" in some jusridictions. Service by publication is used to give "constructive notice" to a defendant who is intentionally absent, in hiding, or unknown

Why didn’t you mention this in your earlier post if not for mischief.

The applicant prayed the judge for many things but he struck it out on the basis that FG has mandate to make election hold.

The Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday granted the request seeking to serve court processes on Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) through substituted service.

The court, however, ordered that other respondents in the matter, namely: the Inspector-General of Police, the Commandant General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and the Attorney-General of the Federation be served personally.

Justice B.O. Quadri gave the order following an ex-parte application by Mr Richard Ndubuaku for an order of court for substituted service of all the processes of the court on the defendants by publishing them in two national newspapers.

Ndubuaku, who made the application through his counsel, Mr Smart Iheazor, also asked the court to make an order restraining the respondents, whether by themselves, members or agents from disrupting the forthcoming Anambra election.

He also asked the court to make an order restraining Kanu and all members of IPOB from interfering, intimidating and harassing all registered and eligible voters in the Nov. 18 Anambra election.

He further asked the court to prevent Kanu and IPOB from mobilising its members either by threat or undue influence to scuttle the election, pending the determination of the originating summons.

Iheazor told the court that his client premised his application on the grounds that Kanu and IPOB had severally made utterances and threats which were published in newspapers which they had not denied or retracted.

“From the antecedents of Kanu and the activities of IPOB, they are capable of carrying out their threat.

“Serving the processes of this suit on the them by publishing in two national newspapers will bring same to their knowledge as it will be dangerous and difficult to effect personal service on them.

“The applicant has several businesses and business interests and houses in Onitsha and Awka with over 100 staff that will be affected if the threats of Kanu and IPOB are carried out.”

Iheazor further explained that the applicant was almost 70 years old and may lose all his life investments in Awka and Onitsha and may not withstand the destruction of his life long struggle.

The judge, however, only granted the order of substituted service on Kanu and IPOB, and refused all the other reliefs sought by the applicant and asked that all parties in the suit be put on notice.

In refusing to grant the other reliefs sought by Ndubuaku , the judge said that the Federal Government had the capacity to ensure that elections held in Anambra.

He adjourned the matter until Oct. 10 for hearing.(NAN)

Service is a notice of a case instituted against someone in a court. the service notifies the defendant or respondent of such a case and he or she is expected to appear in court in the notified sitting for a defence or a response.

The whole thing is just nonsense because the person is asking the courts to stop Kanu from disrupting the elections

Everybody knows that Kanu is calling for a boycott of the elections. Election boycott is in no way disrupting elections so the case is dead on arrival

This is why some uncultured, rulerless, historyless confused group of economic refugees full of hate call you unprintable names. How many times have you spoken out against such people?

Next time please maintain your lane. Hypocrite.
