Mr. Kanu therefore stated his outright objection to the trial in the court.
And the judge said he was standing down from the case, saying Mr. Kanu had the right to reject the trial, “after all justice is rooted on confidence”.
My Question is;
How can one disobey a court order and still want the victim to stand before a court of law and believe he will be given justice.
I personally feel Nnamdi Kanu has just set a new precedence in the Nigerian Judiciary with this landmark admittance from the judge.
With the statement from the judge, Kanu's lawyers can go ahead to file for contempt of Court against the DG of the DSS otherwise, anyone arraigned by the DSS may follow suite and claim lack of confidence in trial.
The DG of DSS should now immediately tender his resignation letter otherwise he must be invited to the ‪#‎NASS‬ to explain on whose order he is acting in disobedience to a competent court order.
If he fails to do so, then it becomes an indictment (which could also be an impeachable offence) against the President and C-in-C of the FRN who would prefer to look the other way while his appointee keep daring the judiciary.
Finally, I must say, the country is gradually being plunged into a state of anarchy and chaos by the APC led government where the rule of law is being disregarded.
The courts have ordered the unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu and it was not obeyed.
Henceforth, with this developments and precedents from the FG, citizens are equally at Liberty too to disobey any orders coming from the government.
