David, I don't know you personally; but I'm fascinated by your reports, gave them wider publicity on my TL, while defending you and your reports in places beyond the reach of the virtual.
On your spat with @TheICIR, I advise you calm down, having done a report which has spawned a further report - the subject and the outcome not radically different from the conclusion you reached in your report - there is sufficient nod to you with the hyperlinked "allegations"
in the opening sentence you now find plagiarised, which I don't it is the case.
In scholarship and in life, traversed areas are open to new interpretation and reinterpretation; and if you see your work in that light, your angst would be unnecessary.
Glory will always seek you as the torch-bearer who walks the path not taken.
Needless picking fights. Unnecessary fights, I must add.

Be blessed.

Dear HE, Prof @CCSoludo, first, my congratulations on your assumption of office as Governor of Anambra State.
Sir, I've chosen to tweet two issues, which I'm pretty sure you'd be interested in, considering your recent visit to a prison in your state
I'd preface both issues with reference to the nexus between citizens/human rights and economic growth and progress. I know that as an economist, you're familiar with this connection. I'm glad you've taken steps to highlight the place of justice administration in your government
Now to the two issues:
(1) The Ezu River Incident 2012
(2) Awkuzu SARS & Anambra State Judicial Panel of Inquiry on #Endsars 2021

I begin with the first.

Following discovery of 19 bodies (Senate/Police/Anambra State government figure) or 35 bodies ( by Amansea community/NGOs)

From our court:
Sharika & Sons v Governor of Kaduna State & ors (2013):

“In Chief John Eze v. Dr. Cosmas I. Okechukwu (1998) 5 NWLR (pt. 548) 43 at 73, the Court opined that: “A public officer, in my view is a holder of a public office. He is in the public sector of the economy
as distinct and separate from the private sector. He is entitled to some remuneration from the public revenue or treasury. He has some authority conferred on him by law. He also has a fixed tenure of office which must have some permanency or continuity.
Above all, a public officer has the power to exercise some amount of sovereign authority or function of government. The Sovereign authority may be great or enormous. It may be little or small. There should be that element of sovereign authority.

Folks, recall that I promised in October 2020 that we will proceed with 19 cases of police brutality handled by my law firm to the civil court to:
1. Enforce the right to life of those killed by the police;
2. Seek an order compelling the IGP to arrest and arraign CSP Nwafor
and all officers named for the murders.
I have now kept the promise and will be acting on behalf of 19 families ( and perhaps more as other families join in one of the biggest class actions against the police), thanks to my colleagues @vicchinyeaka and Rodney Adzuanaga
Legal actions are expensive and in the present economic climate, mounting class action against the police and Attorney General of the Federation is expensive. In this wise, I'm requesting for the support of every citizen of conscience who likes our work to support us.

Here's my response to the decision which nullified S.84(12) of the Electoral Act (2022 Amendment). Straight off, it is a wrong judgment, which erroneously interpreted the said section as being in conflict with Ss. 66 (1); 107 (1) (f); 137 (1) (g); 142(2); 182 and 187(2) CFRN 1999
Two things I find offensive with the judgment, besides the wrong interpretation of the law, are:
1. That it was sinister for whoever filed the suit in FHC Umuahia not have brought NASS which passed the Electoral Bill as a party to the suit;
2. There are provisions in the Rules
which provide that suits may be brought against defendants in jurisdictions where they carry out their ordinary businesses. Why Umuahia, when NASS carries out its legislative business in Abuja? Clearly, a case of forum-shopping by the AGF who appears to be the invisible hand

Have just read the legal opinions of two of my buddies, Ozekhome SAN and Okutepa SAN, on the removal of Gov Umahi, per the judgment of Ekwo J. Both senior lawyers engage law with a certain elegance and felicity and as it is often the case their views always align with mine.
Okutepa's view on jurisdiction is what I engaged here yesterday. This is a summary of his views: that by the community reading of Sections 68(1)(g), 188 and 251(4) of the CFRN 1999, the court lacks the jurisdiction to sack a Governor. He relies on a long line of SC authorities
Ozekhome, on his part, argues that votes belong to candidates and not parties. He cites a long line of authorities which overruled Amaechi's case.
In spite of the logic of Ekwo's judgment - he's a fine judge I must stress - the judgment cannot pass the appellate courts' tests
