|#FREEDANIELOJUKWUNOW: THE GROWING CULTURE OF JUDICIAL OPPRESSION IN NIGERIA; FEDERAL HIGH COURT JUDGES MUST STOP USING BAIL PROCEDURES TO KEEP PEOPLE IN PRISON! The practice of throwing people into prison through prolonged bail proceedings is becoming disturbingly common in Nigeria’s Federal High Courts. The pattern is troubling, @PoliceNG, who discreetly shop for these notorious judges to arraign citizens, particularly journalists, activists and ordinary Nigerians, on cyberstalking charges. Rather than promptly considering their bail applications, some of these judges declare the applications “unripe for hearing,” remand the defendants to prison, and fix distant dates for bail hearings. When the applications are eventually heard, another lengthy adjournment follows for rulings. Even when bail is granted, conditions are sometimes imposed that are so stringent and practically impossible to meet that the defendants remain imprisoned for months (David Nwokorie, who has remained in Kuje prison for breaking up with the daughter of a retred DIG for 7 months remains a case in point). This is punishment before conviction, and it completely erases the constitutional presumption of innocence and the right to personal liberty. The most notorious judges involved in these cases are Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court in Abuja, Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, and Justice Akintayo Aluko, the Federal High Court judge in Lagos (whose handling of cases involving complaints by religious leaders -General Overseers-has also raised serious concerns for many. The decisions and procedures in these cases deserve urgent public repudiation. Remanding a journalist who is not on the run for 21 days merely to hear a bail application is unacceptable and wicked! What happened to the presumption of innocence? What happened to the constitutional right to liberty? Since when did bail become a punishment in itself? Judges must stop allowing the criminal justice system to become an instrument of prolonged detention through procedural delays and practically impossible bail conditions. To Justice Joyce Abdulmalik, a journalist, should not have to spend 21 days in prison simply waiting for an opportunity to argue for bail. The courts are supposed to protect citizens against arbitrary detention, not become instruments for prolonging it. Judicial discretion must never become a license for judicial oppression. We must also expose the disturbing expansion of police repression under Tunji Disu, current "IG of Police". I am deeply concerned about the reckless use of the Nigeria Police Force's National Cybercrime Center (NCCC), headed by AIG Akayinne Ezima, to pursue Nigerians through cybercrime and cyberstalking allegations. The activities of this unit, including allegations of arbitrary arrests, intimidation and the use of criminal proceedings to suppress criticism, demand urgent resistance FREE DANIEL OJUKWU NOW! #FreeDanielOjukwuNow #RevolutionNow

BREAKING: @inecnigeria ON THE RUN OVER TINUBU’S FAKE CERTIFICATE RECORDS! The Federal High Court ordered @inecnigeria to produce Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 1999 and 2023 election records, including his declarations concerning lost certificates. Instead of producing the documents, @inecnigeria has rushed to court, asking that the subpoena be set aside! Why is INEC fighting a court order demanding records that should be in its custody? What exactly is the electoral commission afraid of producing? TINUBU’S RECORDS MUST BE PRODUCED! #TinubuMustGo #RevolutionNow

If you stand for #TINUBUMUSTGO, stop hiding! Our future depends on it. Our dignity depends on it. Our fundamental freedoms depend on it. Tinubu is a monster!

BREAKING: Federal High Court Subpoenas @INECNigeria Chairman To Produce Tinubu’s 1999, 2023 Election Documents In Sowore’s Criminal Trial The Federal High Court in Abuja has issued a subpoena directing the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan, SAN, to appear before it and produce electoral documents relating to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s governorship candidacy in 1999 and presidential candidacy in 2023. The subpoena was issued in connection with the ongoing criminal trial of human rights activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, over his statements describing President Tinubu as a criminal. Hearing notice was also served on Prof Amupitan today.

PRESS CONFERENCE: Addressing the media following today’s proceedings in the politically charged “Tinubu Is a Criminal” trial at the Federal High Court in Abuja. Our resolve to resist intimidation, defend freedom of expression, and demand justice remains unshaken. The struggle continues! #RevolutionNow

Once a political system has been corrupted from top to bottom, a revolution becomes the only path to fix it. A system rotten to its core cannot be repaired through “reforms;” it must be forcefully changed by the collective power of the people.

The court cases against political parties, at this point the @ADCNig, are part of Tinubu's strategic plans to confuse and dissuade Nigerians seeking to run against him. For some, his strategy is to use the courts, where his henchman, Nyesom Wike, pulls the strings. Against those he cannot stop in court, he will deploy violence in some cases, using both methods. Only revolutionary resistance can confront these wicked strategies. Unfortunately, Tinubu @officialabat does not believe in democracy. He (TINUBU) is a crooked political operative, but none of these desperate tactics can save him. Instead, they will eventually become the catalysts for the revolution that Tinubu himself will provoke, whether he likes it or not. #RevolutionNow

State-sponsored thuggery become a feature of the build-up to the 2027 elections, fueled by the political intolerance of the @officialABAT Tinubu-led @OfficialAPCNg regime. I strongly condemn the reported attack on @PeterObi’s convoy in Calabar. Political violence against anyone, regardless of party affiliation, must never be tolerated. But don’t expect much from the @policeng or security agencies because of their complicity in political intimidation and violence. Nigerians will not tolerate this reign of intimidation forever. The people will collectively rise in resistance against political violence, repression, and impunity soon. No regime can suppress the will of the people indefinitely! #RevolutionNow
