WHAT DELE FAROUNBI WROTE ABOUT AFE BABALOLA

This is not a biography for I have painstakingly provided glimpses of my early life in an earlier sequel to my first book.

My purpose here is to tell you the story of my sojourn within the Nigerian legal system and to show you how our justice system- the Nigerian justice system is in itself criminal, lending credence to how the criminality of the juthciary is completely reflective of the Nigetian state in its full ramifications and with full evidence of how this rot having become systemic is insidious and reaches to the very top of the juthcial system.

I will tell you the story of the complete and total loss of the capacity, to deliver justice against the backdrop of a case that was decided by the Supreme Court and which records are in the public domain.

I speak specifically of the case of Major Muritala Gbadamosi 8c Ors v. H.R.H Oba Tijani Akinloye & Ors otherwise known as the Gbadamosi-Eletu case.

It is my conternion regarding this case:

1 That Aare Afe Babalola corrupted the Supreme Court to procure a fraudulent judgment in the service of his clients.

  1. That the law firm of S. B. Joseph & Co. procured 2 warrant to execute the said judgment by doctoring the original judgment of the Supreme Court
  2. That Atilade O, Justice at the time and the Administrative Judge of the Lagos Judicial Division, unlawfully issued a warrant of execution based on the doctored judgment and without the enrolled order of the Supreme Court.
  3. That Atilade, J quashed the fraudulently obtained warrant following an application of counsel in protest against same.
  4. That Aare Afe Babalola, Olu Daramola, Olu Faro and the law offices of Afe Babalola & Co, (Emmanuel Chambers) compromised the Supreme Court and the remaining semblance of integrity it might have had, when they went back to the Supreme Court and got that court to swim in the sewer of corruption and shameful self-abnegation.
  5. That Lawal Pedro SAN, at the material time the Solicitor-General of Lagos State, corruptd himself, abandoned the interests of the State, its citizens and any pretense to decency and became the undiscloud attorney to the Eletu family thus betraying the public trust.
  6. That Afe Babalola libelled me and the fact of the libel becarne known to me in his suit against Lawal Pedro SAN.
  7. That I sued Afe Babalola SAN for libel and that he leveraged his influence in the justiciary to deny me justice.
  8. That Oyekan-Abdullai, J was the instrument of injustice employed to deny me my day in court.
  9. That the Nigerian Justice System is criminal and complicit and can therefore not uphold the tenets of true justice nor the dispense thereof to which it is sworn.

The story I intend to tell is wrapped around the above facts and have been carefully espoused to highlight only the facts of the matter. Afterall, of what use is a lawyer without his facts?

    NIGERIANS SUFFERING BECAUSE OF SOUTH EAST – ORJI UZOR KALU Abia North Senator, Orji Uzor Kalu, has said some of the challenges facing Nigeria could be solved in the South East with the right atmosphere.Senator Kalu said there was a need to restore the region to its peaceful state to fasten productivity of the country.He stated that most of the items produced in China and other foreign nations could be produced in the region if security was guaranteed.Kalu stated this on Saturday in an interview with Arise News. He advocated for efforts to be made to fasten the release of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu.The All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmaker noted that President Bola Tinubu would start the second phase of his administration’s policies as soon as insecurity was defeated.“I think President Tinubu is coming there. I mean, Rome was not built in a day. We are just battling with the insurgents in our area and gradually we are coming up. And as we are coming up, we will now start thinking on the next step.“Once we calm down the insurgents or banditry and our unknown government and all the rest of them, the President and his team and all of us will advise him to open the chapter two of the book. And the chapter two will be development. Once you have no insurgents, you have no unknown gunmen, and you don’t have any disturbances about our people, we will talk page two of development,” he said.South East PotentialThe former governor of Abia State emphasized that the South East region needs a peaceful atmosphere, electricity and good policies to maximize its economic potential.While acknowledging the need for Kanu to be released for the security of the region, Senator Kalu called on IPOB lawyers and the judiciary to expedite action on the legal process.“We have always, people we say, we have always asked the president, according to law, find the best way of law to address the issue of South East, both the issue of the IPOB, the issue of everybody, to address this within the context of law of Nigeria. So that possibly, very quickly, Nnamdi Kanu will be released from prisons and we will continue to live a better life and produce everything.“Let me be honest with you. Nigerians are suffering because of the problem we are having in the South East. The South East can produce everything you buy in China. We can make them in Aba, Nnewi and Onitsha. Everything you buy from China. Just give us electricity, give us the way that we need and give us the direction. We will produce everything that you produce in China. The technologies are there, everything, we have it, but we need a better atmosphere.“We need to clean away properly, in agreement, the sit-at-home which has cost hundreds of billions of Naira out of the South East. We need to bring back the I can do it spirit. We need to send back Eging by Eging. We need to go back to what we know how to do,” he stated.Tinubu Believes In the Capacity of South EastThe Abia North lawmaker explained that President Tinubu was waiting for the judiciary to conclude the legal process on Kanu’s case.He added that as soon as the judiciary had done everything in line with the rule of law, the President would intervene.He continued, “When I was governor, a lot of things were being manufactured in Aba. People have begged Aba people to stop putting made in Paris, made in Spain, made in Brazil. They should stop putting made in Aba. We can supply every equipment this country needs from that region of the country.“President Tinubu himself knows this because I can…

    COURT BARS FRSC FROM IMPOUNDING VEHICLES WITH FADED NUMBER PLATES

    COURT BARS FRSC FROM IMPOUNDING VEHICLES WITH FADED NUMBER PLATES A Federal High Court in Lagos, South-west Nigeria, has barred the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) from impounding vehicles with faded number plates or imposing penalties on their owners. According to TheCable newspaper, the judge, Akintayo Aluko, handed down the decision in a suit filed against the FRSC by Chinwike Ezebube, a lawyer. The lawyer, in the suit filed on 13 February 2024, as the sole designer and producer of number plates in Nigeria, bears full responsibility for their durability. Consequently, the agency cannot justifiably impose penalties on vehicle owners for issues arising from the substandard quality of the number plates. The judge agreed with the plaintiff in his judgement delivered on Friday (17 January).He held that “while the defendant cannot criminalise the use of faded vehicle number plates, the plaintiff has a duty to approach the defendant for a replacement of his faded vehicle number plate upon payment of the requisite fees for that purpose.”He added, “By way of conclusion, I hold the view that the defendant cannot criminalise the use of faded vehicle number plate and has no power to impose a fine on the plaintiff for using faded vehicle number plate or impound the plaintiff’s vehicle on such grounds without the order of a court of competent jurisdiction.” He also restrained the FRSC from declaring it an offence to drive with a faded vehicle number plate. “An order of the honourable court restricting the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), from imposing any fine or punishment on the plaintiff for driving with a faded vehicle number plate is granted. Plaintiff’s case Mr Ezebube had asked the court to determine “whether the defendant, pursuant to Section 5 (g) and Section 10 (3)(f) of the Federal Road Safety Commission Act 2007 being the sole designer and producer of vehicle number plates in Nigeria, is not absolutely responsible for the quality and durability of the vehicle number plates as are produced by it?”He also urged the court to determine if the defendant (FRSC) can make it an offence and impose a penalty against him or other Nigerians for driving a vehicle with faded vehicle number plates due to poor quality production as designed and produced by the defendant?”He prayed the court to order the FRSC to replace faded number plates at no cost due to their poor quality manufacturing. FRSC’s lawyer, B.O Nnamani, opposed the suit in a counter-affidavit, urging the court to dismiss The court upheld the plaintiff’s case in its Friday’s judgement.
