The Patriots Alliance (TPA), have watched with great dismay the extent
of intellectually shallow, maniacally egregious, and callously spurious
allegations being levelled against the person of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi
Amaechi, Minister of Transportation, Federal Republic of Nigeria. We find it
terribly disturbing that custodians of the temple of justice, in the persons of
Honourable Justices of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, would resort to
mud-slinging and political shenanigans. We say NO to any further denigration of
our highly respected judiciary and any innocent citizen of our dear country.
As Patriots, one of our self-imposed duties is to protect credible
public servants who are caught in-between the monstrous fangs of the
consequences of proper governance. To us, the dim-witted accusations spiralling
from the very apex of our judiciary, must be met with wittier confrontations.
We cannot sit back as officers of the law attempt an abominable media spin in
order to divert attention from their alleged crimes, all in order to attract
cheap public sympathy.
Let it be on record that it is not Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi,
that is on trial here; those on trial are members of the judiciary who are
entangled in one form of corruption allegation or the other. In that sense, we
hereby wish to kindly advise our Honourable Justices to immediately quit the
queer gallerious display of fallacies and quickly prepare for their imminent
day in court.
Amaechi was not there when the Judges stacked millions of dollars in
their private apartments: Amaechi was also not there when DSS arrested them:
neither was Amaechi there when they started answering questions raised by the
DSS and EFCC bordering on their alleged corrupt practices. So why rope-in
Amaechi into their pathetic travails?
Nigeria is not a Banana Republic, neither is Nigeria a land of fools
where any Tom, Dick, and Harry can stand up and point accusing fingers at
another person without providing credible evidence to back up whatever claims
is brought to the fore.
The factless assertions of mi Lords, Justice Inyang Okoro and Justice
Sylvester Ugwuta, respectively, are in gross violations of the provisions of
Section 23, subsection 1,2 & 3 of the Corrupt Practices and other Related
Offences Act 2000. It is rather funny and curious that these Justices rather
than report to the Police, of whom the law specifically mandated for such
matters, they merely made an 'oral' report to the Chief Justice of Nigeria
(CJN).
Truth they say shines brighter than light, therefore, we use this very
medium to challenge the embattled Justices to come forward with any credible
evidences of their allegations against the Minister of Transportation, Chibuike
Rotimi Amaechi, or forever remain silent. Enough of this national shame!
