A justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, Justice Sylvester Ngwuta has alleged that his home was raided because he refused to help Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi pervert justice in governorship election disputes involving Ekiti, Rivers and Ebonyi states.
Ngwuta in a letter to the Chief Justice of Nigeria and the National Judicial Council said Amaechi and the Minister of Technology, Ogbonnaya Onu approached him on behalf of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ngwuta said this in the letter titled “Invasion Of My House In The Night, Planting Of Huge Sums Of Money In Different Currencies, Purported Recovery Of The Money, Carting Away Of My Documents And Other Valuable Items And My Subsequent Abduction By Masked Operatives Of The DSS Between Friday, October 7th And Saturday, October 8th, 2016.”
He also said Amaechi wanted him to remove Ekiti Sate governor, Ayodele Fayose.
Recall that another justice of the Supreme Court, Justice Okoro Inyang had also alleged that Amaechi visited him and wanted to influence Supreme Court rulings.
I maintain that the APC gov’t led by PMB is very corrupt. Abuse of power is an equal form of corruption
Or is it only PDP members and judges that the FG can arrest and prosecute?
This is the 2nd Judge accusing Amaechi of attempting to influence judgments, is the FG not listening to these allegations?
