Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Edozie Njoku, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, has called on the Federal Government to install closed-circuit televisions, CCTVs in courts across the nation<\/p>\n

He said that doing this would help reduce the rate of atrocious activities perpetrated within court premises, even inside the courts, by those who are protecting the law.<\/p>\n

The leadership tussle within the political party has defiled many court rulings, with the most recent judgement coming from a Buari Court, which ordered Victor Oyeh to stop parading himself as the National Chairman of the party.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re aware that we\u2019ve been in court. The other side, led by Victor Oyeh, said that after the lower court in Buari declared that they should vacate the office, that INEC should take my name as the national Chairman, they went for an appeal,\u201d Njoku told reporters at the premises of Court of Appeal, Abuja.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat appeal has been delayed for a while, but finally the appeal is over. But while the appeal was coming to an end, something took us by surprise.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lead lawyer from the other side tried to bring in some sort of judgment. After the case was decided, he told the judge that he had a case he wanted to bring and that it showed we don\u2019t have any right to come to court. I was startled.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe went further to say that it was done on November 28. The court asked him to file it and serve us. But on serving us, we found out the case was cooked up somehow using a lawyer who was a plaintiff at the lower court.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe came as a respondent. Names [of top party leaders] appeared on the suit even when they didn\u2019t go to the Court of Appeal.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut the judgment didn\u2019t really affect our case because it was struck out. But you know the games they play. Once it\u2019s struck out they\u2019ll say they\u2019ve gone to the court of appeal.<\/p>\n

\u201cChief Chekwas Okorie was one of the people impersonated. It\u2019s a terrible thing. I think the court should be fortified. Things like CCTV should start happening. I don\u2019t see why there shouldn\u2019t be CCTVs in court.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court should be well funded by the government. And if we\u2019re not able to get up and stand for our rights…a fake judgment…they were the ones taking me to court for forgery. When someone is always talking about forgery, just know that person is capable of forgery.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were once accusing me of forging a Supreme Court judgment, but they\u2019re the ones who have now come up with this major scam. It should be looked into very carefully.\u201d<\/p>\n
